Young guys play a lot, and improve noticeably over the course of the season.

Danny makes one or two moves to shed some more long-term salary and maybe add another future asset of some kind.

Yeah, agreed. I'd guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 wins.

I have this weird feeling we might trade with New Orleans.  I'm not hoping we don't move Jeff Green.

Expectations for this season? Poor season, 20-25 wins, last bottom part of EAST. Can not cut PP and KG in this way. Now get the consequences

I am hoping for 20 wins, but they may surprise me and go for 25.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Stevens becomes the best off-season hire, Olynyk performs better than expected (Dirk "light") and Rondo beats the single-season assist record.

35-40 wins if Courtney finds his stroke again, Rondo and Sully return healthy, Avery picks up offensively, Wallace becomes a contributing 7th man.

Eric Gordon.  I am hoping that maybe Humphries and a couple of firsts would do instead of something like Green and Lee.

I say Kelly becomes rookie of the year and the first rookie to average 35ppg, rondo breaks the record for most assist and triple doubles and averages 15ppg, 15 assistpg and 8 rb. Jeff green averages 25ppg and we have a new big three in those 3 guys, Stevens gets rookie of the year, Olynyk gets MVP and rondo gets comeback player of the year. We beat miami in 6 with Olynyk being Finals MVP over the Houston rockets in 5.

We could win 25 games and it will still be more entertaining than last year in the same way that seeing a washed up, bloated old rock star at a Casino isn't as entertaining as watching a young up and coming garage band rock out at your local pub.

My expectations are a minimum of 35 wins, hopefully more and a trip to the playoffs.
why would you want to go to the playoffs? you guys are delusional if you think this roster is even remotely close to making the playoffs, let alone being a championship contender.

we're tanking for wiggins

My one and only expectation for this year, is for Rondo to come back better than before, and to shut up all the haters.

+1....great analogy....this past year was painful to watch....I know I'm enamored with hope, but hope and players playing their asses off for their jobs beats the ish out of what we saw this year, only to get worse if we had run it back
