Man, Footey stole my answer out of the gate.  I guess I’ll say 53 wins instead of 55.

50 wins, second round.

Even if they aren't as talented as last year, the East has a lot of really bad teams this year.  The Celts have some weaknesses but it's a pretty well balanced and solid roster.  I think Brad will have them playing above their talent level once again.

Ultimately though it'll be impossible to avoid either Philadelphia or Milwaukee in the 2nd round and I don't think the Celts will be ready to overcome Embiid / Giannis.

I'll go 52-30 which is about the pinnacle for this team. I'd say obviously they'll have much better team chemistry but will miss Al Horford being the glue of the team and will definitely have a weaker defense. Second round exit barring a miracle.

Also, PS- F off Kyrie!

Well, I guess I'll be the firstsecond to go under 50 wins with 46-48.  I think Al was the most important player on the team, and there's gonna be a lot of growing pains to replace him.  I think we have a good record post-all star break, but a rough start to the season.  Win the first round, lose in 6 or 7 games in the second (no home court)

Edit: libermaniac beat me too the punch
I'm bitter.

48. wins
2 nd round exit




before Kemba id said 37 .   Now with Kemba , Grant , Carsen , and looks like Williams could make an impact ....this is all with Hayward still being mental disabled , m not counting on him for anything anymore .....48 is possible

Put me down for 50 wins and 2nd round. I don't think this is the absolute best we can do or that Philly is unbeatable, but it seems about what should happen if things go as planned.

TP for the optimism .    Prepare for a let down  ;D

We are not beating Giannis unless misfortune befall s the Bucks in amjor way.  He just gets better and more dominant every year.  ....like Bron when he was young.   If we d kept Al ....i think we d be back with win in a game or two of last year .   Im just not seeing how we over come the lack of his defense .

55 games.

Coaching gets exposed as weak point yet again in the 2nd round.
Still don't believe in Joe.

55 or more..

If they can play as a TEAM - like they did in 2017-18 - then they can advance DEEP in the post-season.

And THIS time we could have a near-Utah GH and Kemba leading the way.

If Kanter-TimeLord-Tacko can form a Three Headed monster...our very own King Ghidorah - then this would be HUGE.

I'm calling it NOW - Tacko will be better than expected for us and will get a marketing contract from none other than Taco Bell.

Our home games - on Tuesdays - we should give the fans a free Taco for EVERY dunk or Block he gets as well.

51 wins, but I am assuming there is a deadline deal to acquire a big man coming.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19
