Upcoming stretch

[seancally]

Brad has shown willingness to tighten the rotation when healthy against the tougher matchups. Interesting to see if that carries through on some of these.

Bolded is pretty huge

[SHAQATTACK]

next game might be on of the top 10 difficult games to win .

i m already looking forward to us replaying Raps, Clippers , Rockets  With a healthy lineup that includes Robert Will

[Phantom255x]

2-1 so far!

The one game that really sucks is against Utah. Have to travel to the second half of a back to back and play at altitude. If we win that one... I’ll be really impressed. Looks like a schedule loss.

The 4 games right after the Break will be the toughest of the entire stretch. The goal there is probably to go 2-2. But yeah, Utah feels like a scheduled loss. Makes it more important we beat Minnesota and then one of LAL/POR (preferably Lakers lol)

Looking good, 5-2 so far!

Booya! And crushing them late, the opposite of running out of steam. God bless 21-23 year old legs! And whatever general dysfunction Utah's got going on!


5-2 in the front half but the back half's no picnic either. Still we look very good to go over .500 which is great for such a brutal run of games.

Next 7 games is HOU, BKN, @CLE, Utah, OKC, @IND, @MIL

Honestly, I could easily see 5-2 in this stretch too. We already beat some of these teams on the road recently (Utah, OKC), and that Cleveland game should be an easy win (unless we decide to rest everyone I guess). Brooklyn is without Kyrie + KD and IND is reeling.

I actually think the Cleveland game has "trap" written all over it given that it is the only gimme win (I guess you can also argue Brooklyn) smack dab in the middle of a brutal stretch.

Indiana is also very resilient, plus that game will be on the road. It won't be easy.

We'll probably go something like 3-1 in the home games against Houston, Brooklyn, Utah and OKC and then go either 2-1 or 1-2 in our road games.

I don't know the Cavs are really not that good, if we lose, I'll be super upset... The fact the 76ers lost to the Cavs, (108-94, yeesh) speaks volumes of how bad they have become, along with the Jazz who are slightly imploding right now.

Celtics and Tatum been too hot, but think they get swept by Houston this Saturday. Refs will blow their whistles if one breathes on James Harden.

The only reason the C’s may lose is because it’s the first home game after a road trip, which the players say is a tough one.  Otherwise, this team is too hot to handle right now, esp JT.  What’s more, Cs match up well size-wise with the new-look Bottle Rockets.  Lastly, this game is my annual get-together with college buddies.  We were gonig to go to the game but decide to save money and do BBQ & wide-screen instead.

Confidence of this team is through the charts.  Love watching them.

Tatum's ascension has made such a difference. Wow. I did not see this coming, not this quickly.
