Realistic amout of wins for the 2012/2013 season ?

[SJackson1]

coming off the worst season in NBA history what would be a realistic amout of wins for the Bobcats this season ?

[Toocool]

I'll say we win 21.

A little early for this thread

[Talent]

Barring any major roster moves or shakeups I would say this team could win around 28 games next year. They will certainly be a lot more competitive in games.

[GoBobs]

47 wins....................!

[Whiz Kid]

Speaking honestly and realistically, I'm saying 30 MAX. Nothing over.

[Dcarnys]

My gut is saying 24 wins with alot less blowouts.

[westbrook08]

Who knows.We haven't finished making the roster yet.Too early!

Not really though. We have a pretty solid idea of what everyone's roster is going to be, and minor moves won't affect much.

I think it was Curtis Polk who said there are something like 20 games a season you expect to won because the other team doesn't show up. Seeing as how Dunlap will bench anyone for laziness, I'd go with around twenty, because we aren't gonna win on talent yet :P

[ziggy]

22 wins sounds just about right to me.

[isguros]

I'm going to say 17 for now. However, if we're going to sign a FA with talent, we might win a few games more.

Yes really though, the first game of the season isn't for another 4 months and there's no telling what could happen in that time. We could still make a trade that helps, we could still sign someone like based Yi, Dwight could be traded and help our chances against the magic, somebody could get injured in training camp.

Four months!

I think in last years NBA we win 20-30 games, but a lot of teams have got better, like they usually do. We have taken some good steps to becoming better but some of last season's bottom dwellers are going to be play off calibre teams this year. Such as GSW and Washington. They have stopped "rebuilding" now and are fully loaded for a play off run.

Also, I think that if we get one or two injuries we will struggle, similar to last year (although we are deeper now). I think Cho and MJ still don't want to win that many games this year so we will play our younger guys more than we probably should and we may hold people back if they are carrying a slight injury.

I think we will just about hit 20 or fall just short

**Disclaimer**

this is if we do not make any more major signings or trades

[SJackson1]

25 wins would be .305 which is a massive improvment on last season. We have more depth this season with Sessions, Haywood, Gordon all coming off the bench

[captaincrunk]

I picked 51-60 because there was no option for 60+ wins

[cltblkhscoach]

Seriously what two idiots would choose 51-60...

[SJackson1]

i wonder if Dunlap will target a specific number of wins or jusy play 110% every game ?

[BlockParty]

19, but we play the Lakers twice this year and we own them, so 21 games!

Go Cats

I only picked it because someone was foolish enough to put it on there.

EDIT: It's like finding out Lorena Bobbitt is on the presidential ballot. You just vote for the lulz.

[SJackson1]

i will be dissapointed if we don't get 20 wins to be honest, we have the 2nd pick in the draft and signed some solid pro's in Free Agency.

[dav7z]

My number was between 26 and 28 wins . With Dunlap and hustle we could get 28. But i all so agree with the Captain my first thought was 68

[adam187]

honestly i have no idea. i feel like so much of it will come down to dunlap and if he is the right guy (i love him and hope he is). how much blame can we put on silas for last year? will the players stick with dunlap, even if the wins aren't coming? is he ready for the highest level? obviously, this season centers around dunlap and MKG and there's still so many questions. i'm hoping for the best, keeping my expectations light, and am definitely ready to be pleasantly surprised.

last year the team won just a little more than 1 out of 10 games. 20 wins this year is winning roughly 1 out of 4 games, which would be a massive improvement. i'm hoping for 20+, with a bunch of those coming at the end of the season as the team matures. putting my prediction at 18.

[BrotherDave]

15-20. We're still horrible, we have a rookie head coach, and everyone in our division with the possible exception of the Magic are a better team than last year.

[SJackson1]

6-4 after 10, is 34 realistic ?

[Chef]

6-4 after 10, is 34 realistic ?

not at all. still thinking 20-25.

[Dcarnys]

6-4 after 10, is 34 realistic ?

I don't know. I love seeing this type of play but how long can we honestly keep this up? If we can 34 is definetly realistic. If not Id say around 25 is realistic.
