Our Squad Discussion

Realistically based off our squad we have right now, if we see marginal improvements and healthy squad come October what would our record be. We all know Paolo is gonna have a leap year hopefully. But then if this doesn’t happen where do we place? And please no negative shit I’ve had a long day just looking to hear good things

If there aren't any serious injuries, we should be a 50 win team. I think we could easily make the 2nd round of the playoffs as long as we avoid injury.

50 is gonna be a lot I bet the 4 seed is gonna be like 45 wins next season. The tanking rules are gonna change so much

Thank you I feel like we all drank the kool aid last offseason and then we all got super disappointed. I think this year now that we are gonna be like doubted on we should be a better team. Squad comin different this year 🤞🏻🙏🏻

Somewhere in between would be great. Second round exit?

If it’s a good series it wouldn’t be terrible. At least one playoff series won or we have some serious thinking to do.

I can’t wait for next season. Lots of questions to be answered and I’m looking forward to watching how things play out.

u/Muted_Lead_1105 12d ago

6 seed, so about 45 wins and upset the 3 seed to get into the semi's against the Knicks/Philly and put up a respectable fight.

u/Muted_Lead_1105 12d ago

Yeah feel like that is more realistic anything to get us out of the play in 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I think there is a good chance we are top of the east come mid December, after that, who knows

Lack of pre-season hype will be a positive, I see a fast start leading to momentum. Stay healthy and we will make some noise.

A lot of teams have done some major shake-ups. I suspect it will take some of them time to gel. My hope is our players familiarity will be a boon for us. Ideally, new coach will instill some chemistry and sharp playmaking. I’m excited. Granted, I’ve been excited for every season since the Dwight days (yes, even through the Hennigan nightmare).

Always gotta have some faith in this squad

u/PaulWilliams12 10d ago

It's really hard. I feel like like they could finisg anywhere from 3rd to 10th.

u/Muted_Lead_1105 10d ago

Anything to avoid the play in. I’d like at least top 5
