It's too optimistic around here.  And the normal "doom and gloomers" don't post as much any more.

So let play the role of "GLOOM".

Yeah, we wouldn't be the 5 seed anymore but would still likely be top 8. I think our peer group is pretty well defined of the 5 teams battling for seeds 4-8, with a top 6 seed being the goal. Miami, Charlotte, Boston, NYK, and us. 

Meanwhile the Pacers, Bulls and Raptors are jockeying for seeds 9 and 10.

3-5.

San Antonio and New Orleans is not that far in-between 

Yeah but it is at the tail end of a long road trip and it is back to back. The Pelicans do stink right now though.

No need to be bashful.  Just tell us what you think!

That would be grand.  If we split, 4-4, we stay above .500.  With all our help coming back, I see no reason for us to lose more than 2 or 3.  6-2 is my guess.  Make them wonder why we didn't make their old all star list.

I'm really hoping we go 5-3 because if we do we come back over .500 against WC and on the road. That would be sweet.

Give me 6 and 2.

Losses to the Clipps and Warriors. 

I think we have better PG play than a whole lot of the other teams and PG play will get us a W.   With the Clipps, it's not a case of PG play...they are just so extraordinarily talented everywhere.   With the Dubbs... Curry will probably make it his business to show up Trae.  Plus they play very good defense. 

The hard to call game for me is the Nuggets.  This is the one game where we don't dominate down low.

Don't lose 2 in a row. Adopt that mindset and make it a reality. We do that and we are all good.

Exactly. Keep things at .500 or better. If the Hawks survive this trip, they're golden for the rest of the season.

I missed my smoothie buddy! Hope you been good bro. I lived in DC in 99 for a year and had to shovel snow daily, this was in addition to not having a car so after working from 8-5 I’d walk to the gym which was about a mile from my house, workout for an hour then get hyphy off the lbs. relocating so I’d run home. Would get home and watch basketball till midnight due to the east coast time zone and wake up at 6:30 and do it all over again. Of course I was in my 20’s. Lol.

 

So you shoveled huh . Nice

If that guy can turn his butt into a flame thrower then we can take another seven in a row right? 

[Atlantaholic]

Gonna go with 8-0 until this team gives me reason to think otherwise... I can her ya'll now, "but hooolic this team has been beating up on garbage teams" alright, that's true, it's also true Trae's been ice cold Capela has been hurt and we are getting Hunter back soon. If Trae breaks out Cap gets his legs under him and Hunter comes back strong... Just something to think about.

I want to say we beat the Clippers. But that recent beat down by the Mavs could be their wake up call.
