With the way things have gone this year, we'll probably see the Blazers flip the script and win way more of these games than they have any right to. But yeah, in general the schedule after the all-star break is what made me pretty confident in my 32-wish wins prediction.
Honestly though, I think the difference between 35 wins and 28 comes down to health. Will Wesley and Batum get back to being healthy and will LA and Lillard hold up.
