I think its going to happen on the trade deadline. Hopefully we get Beasley and even more so Odom. Would be happy with Beasley for JO but cross your fingers guys.

[raynman]

There's definitely going to be changes.. But it better come by next week, before we go to that hellish stretch of a million road games..

[OhioGreen]

I'm going to say we go 8-24, with the caveat that our present team remains intact! Trades could turn the whole thing on its' side!

That schedule is brutal. Except for the very begining mostly on the road, alot in the west, and even the bad teams we play away!

[Tgro]

Unless we have a trade that totally destroys the team's togetherness I don't see how we go 8 - 24. I'm just going to look at it like games we should win and shouldn't win and also a little bit of hope and optimism.

Best case, I say we go about 20-12.

Worst case 17-15.

But I'm thinking more like best case here.

[PosImpos]

32 games left?  Brutal schedule?

Assuming the team stays basically the same, I'm going to guess they go 17-15 and finish 34-32.

They will be right about where they are now. I feel the deficiencies are structural rather than subjective and they will lose in the 1st round of the playoffs. I doubt that a magical midseason trade will launch a significant 2012 play-off campaign at this point.....

33 wins, 33 losses lose 4-1 to Miami or Chicago in the 1st round sounds about right.

I'll go with 19-13 to finish up at 36 and 30.

[vinnie]

15-17 to finish at 32-34 (if current team intact)

This sounds about right...anywhere from 16-16 to 20-12

[EvilEmpire]

I'm going to go with 16 and 16. Which should be good enough for the 8th maybe the 7th if the Knicks slip-up.

[Evantime34]

22-10
After assuming these things.
1. Pierce again plays at a high level
2. No serious injuries
3. The team takes steps to catet to Rondo's style
4. The move(s) we make at the deadline make us better
5. Either by trade or by competition Dooling isn't a rotation player for us anymore.

With a reasonable amount of those things not happening we are 500 the rest of the way.
