Not sure why everyone thinks the Kings will be good.  they added Derozan, who i don't think fits and 35, to a team that is chock full of guards.  They basically have no one in the frontcourt but Sabonis unless i missed something.

I am usually extremely optimistic no matter what this time of the year but for the first time since Horford 2nd injury return do I feel really good about this team. 

As long as Daniels and Risacher starts. 60-22. Most depth in the NBA. Matthews is literally our 13th man this year behind Vit and Roddy. That's insane depth. We got legit depth to not lose a beat with injuries.

I'm super high on this team as well, but 60-22 is more like an alternate universe where these guys have played under Quin for 2 years already, Dyson has developed a reliable jumper, Zacc isn't a rookie, and Jalen is an all star.  And then they all stay healthy for the entire year.  That's a 60-22 team.  

60-22 is like 3 years away IF everything falls into place like we all hope it will and every player develops to their optimal level.  60-22 this year means Quin has learned the dark magic of Voodoo and has used it for personal gain.

I always go high end on prediction threads. As always I have a floor and a ceiling. 30 wins is the floor. 60 is the ceiling

5 --- YES

6 --- Vit & Barlow

7 ---12th

1. Regular season record?  42-40 (Hawks were a winning team before DM arrived and will return to being one this year)

2. Not including Bogi and Trae, which player makes the most total 3’s?  Zacc

3. Who plays more minutes Bogi, Hunter, Risacher, or Dyson?  Zacc  [Note that this asks who plays more minutes and not who averages the most minutes per game]

4. Which front court player will average the most rebounds?  Capela  (I'd love to see OO seize the job and reduce CC's minutes to 20 per game but with OO already hurt I'm betting on CC getting enough minutes to win this one)

5. Will Trae, Quin, and the Hawks organization end the season on good terms?  Yes (hoping Trae will see enough promise in this team to be on board going into next year)

****************************Bonus Q’s

6.  Which dark horse player emerges in the rotation? Vit? Garrison? Barlow? Other?  Kobe  (I waffled between Kobe and Vit on this)

7. Defense rating out of all teams 1-30?  19th

8. Who becomes the backup PG and PF?  Kobe and Nance  (When OO is hurt, Nance may be getting those minutes at center so my answer is more about who is the first PF when OO and CC are healthy)

9. Which Hawk(s) makes the allstar team?  Trae (he has gotten an invite for the last 5 consecutive seasons and taking the injury replacement invite last year is a sign to me that he is past letting himself be too proud to rep himself and the team in the All-Star game)

10. Will the Kings and Lakers pick higher or lower than the Hawks?  Lower (i.e., they will finish with better records than the Hawks but this one is a toss-up as I could see these three finishing in any order depending on who is healthy, etc.)

No offense but only 8 teams were outside of this range last year and seven were tanking.  This is an extremely safe prediction.

It isn't a prediction.  I view it as Supes getting warmed up to his actual prediction.  Predictions for purposes of this thread aren't ranges.  We all have floor and ceilings somewhere in mind and then settle on a specific prediction which is what gets measured in this thread.  It might be 30 to 60 wins; might be 40-50 wins; might be 12 to 78 wins.  But then people have to turn around and decide "am I splitting my floor and ceiling and going with 45 wins or am I going with some other number" to get to their actual prediction.
