It's official we will reach 50 wins this year

[HawkItus]

If you follow BS on Page 2 you know he regularly short changes the Hawks. Whatever he predicts our record to be, we usually go 8-10 games over. This year he has us at 44-wins and Chicago finishing ahead of us at 49. Amazing. Can't wait for his March column saying who new yadda yadda, with some faint praise and sideways props.

Phew. For a second there, I thought you were gonna say that he had predicted that we would win 50 games - in which case, of course, we would actually headed back to the lottery.

I'm glad to see he predicted Portland to do so poorly though - that means my second-favorite team is a lock to win 60.

I do follow Sports Guy. I find his writing to hit home on all levels - pop culture, analysis, and very humorous. Even pre-ordered his new book, which I can't wait to read. BUT, he's always hard on the Hawks. I think the playoffs a couple of years ago put a scare in him with his beloved Celts...and he's always had a sore spot for JJ too...prolly because he never panned out with the Celtics and now he's a star.
