How many wins will it take to make the 8th seed?

How many wins do you think it will take to get 8th seed?

Currently I would say its between the Blazers, Suns, and Grizz with Houston as a dark horse. I think 43 is a lock.

Blazers are at 20

Suns at 17

Grizz at 18

Houston 16

Gonna be a nail biter unless we make a trade. Quick is already speculating we wont be in the race in APril.

Quicks quote:

"Portland holds the eighth playoff spot, and is 1 1/2 games ahead of ninth-place Memphis and two games ahead of 10th-place Phoenix (17-21). The Blazers won the season series from Phoenix 3-1, and have split two meetings with Memphis, with the final meeting in Portland in the season's penultimate game."

"Will Portland still be in playoff contention by late April?"

However many wins it takes is what we will end up with after the playoffs, but yay playoffs I guess?

They could I guess? The teams under them are all prety crappy. As is though, if they make the playoffs they will get swept out shortly there after

i dont see it (as is)

suns and grizz will likely pass us in the next 2 weeks.

These next 7 games will prob determine wether we blow it up or go for playoffs.

Nets
Minny
@sac town
clippers
pacers
sac town
boston

Out of those 7 we need to go AT LEAST 4-3 at absolute worst with 6-1 being goal. have to get 4 games over 500 by this stretches end.

Most are afraid of being wrong and don't like to make bold predictions.

While you on the other hand obviously enjoy being wrong and making bold predictions!

Give me a number big boy!

I would guess around 42, but I really don't care if the Blazers make the playoffs this season. I see zero chance of going deep so I would rather the Blazers risk making the playoffs this year and plan more for the future.

 

[MIXUM]

well we would need 20 more wins out of 42 to make the playoffs is your prediction is correct.

21 for me.

basically play 500 ball and we would get in.

One more than the ninth seed.

most are just over your tired tactics/threads... the forum has been dying a slow death since you started dominating the conversation with your daily mania

but to answer the question, if Portland's current rotation stays healthy I'd guess they'll finish as the 6-7th seed winning 45-48 games or so... I'll site the post Brandon results as evidence
