…and that’s without Timelord! How wicked good is this team going to be if everyone is healthy come the playoffs? Will anybody be able to stand in our way other than Milwaukee in an epic ECF Battle of the Greens (Part IX historically, Part IV in the Giannis era)? I can taste banner 18…

Major props to everyone keeping it roaring while we await the return of our defensive lord.

I hope for Gallo joins the group in finals. Not sure if possible.

Amazing how just a couple of weeks ago we were all slitting wrists because we lost a couple of games  :angel:

They will slow down at some point. Injuries, lack of big man depth, incredibly hot shooting start. Some of that will level out as the season progresses. Still probably won 50 games but not sure if they get to 63.

If this team is healthy come playoff time, I like our chances. Can't say they're a lock, and I really want to see us against Milwaukee full strength, but clearly they're legit contenders.

Our strength of schedule ranks 13th per ESPN.  Our opponents have a winning percentage of 0.508.  So we are pretty much average in terms of playing tough teams.  Our schedule to date has been pretty representative of what we are going to see the rest of the way.

Don't get me wrong, I am not predicting 63 wins or whatever, there will be ups and downs.  But there is no reason to discount this start.

No reason to NOT be optimistic. Last year we were .500 at the all-star break and the offense looked garbage. So no need to be a debbie downer. Even if we don't win 63 games. We have the top offense in the NBA and are playing beautiful basketball out of the gate. And Tatum looks to have taken another jump.

And that is with missing Timelord, and brown/brogdon/horford for games.

Imagine if we can add timelord and a healthy squad to this group.
