I’d been saying 27 to 32 wins because I didn’t think they’d be tanking. Then erred on the optimistic side with my official vote of 32, ‘cause Bud. Then they tanked, so now I’m hoping/praying/ju-ju’n that @capstone21 nails it too. Come on Top 3. “With the 3rd pick in the 2018 NBA draft, the Atlanta Hawks select.....Luka Doncic!”

Was my thinking too.  Training my brain to believe that the Hawks would so anything but rebuild has been a challenge.  TBH, I didn't fully accept it until we finally started letting guys go.  I didn't have a ton of faith in Charlotte, but Indiana was a bit of a surprise...otherwise, I think we could have slid into the bottom of the heap.

Honestly...  Part of me made a playoff prediction JUST because the Hawks tend to trend exactly the opposite of what I predict. LOL

I had them dead on at 23 but they just had to go out and win yesterday...

Was right on the money in 2015.  One game off last year so I fully expect me to nail it again this season.  

Official prediction:  29-53

No later than May 1, 2018 the Hawks are looking for a new head coach.

Was off on the record a bit.  Gave them too much credit.  I nailed the second half of my prediction though!
