So what IS your prediction?

 

[Orion Bailey]

CJ's gonna shoot lower than last year and the worst since his rookie year? That would be so disappointing and I doubt we'd get to 45 wins if that was the case.

Where is your prediction?

 

[Hoopguru]

Where is your prediction?

come on HJ, you can do it!

 

[42N8Bounce]

Easy -

39-43
CJ shoots 40.5% on 3 point attempts, on 462 attempts.

The secret to happiness in life is to set one's goals low.

I hate predicting a number of wins in sports where there are so many games, however I will participate. I'm going to wait a bit though.

Should’ve stayed on theme and with 410 attempts.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

44 wins, 280 attempts 42%

@Orion Bailey I want to change my attempts prediction to 470, was looking at his stats and realized I was really low.

Done.

 

[kjironman1]

42-40 39% 3 pt shooting on 484 attempts.

Blazers did not get better this year. Something tells me they are in for a few injuries.

 

[kjironman1]

4th seed.
Matching up with @HCP's Lakers in round 1.

NBA will just love that.
Worlds best player and biggest name going to Portland for 3 games.
Yup.

I know this doesn't count @Orion Bailey

Why do you think he will have to come to Portland three times to sweep the Blazers?

 

[H.C.]

I said nothing about sweep.
In fact my post says no sweep.
So I don't get your question.

It was a joke.

Sorry too soon?

Yes that was another joke.....

Like until March?

Yes this is another joke.

 

[kjironman1]

Done.

How much does this cost? How late in the season can i do this?


Intended as a joke but kinda serious in a joking manner.

We are very close in our predictions. I agree. I just am not seeing any real improvement this year to be excited about?


Not really joking at all.

 

[BonesJones]

47-35 but apparently I'm the negative one!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

lol, as long as you pick the Lakers at 46 or less thats positive enough for me heh

Well. A little worse than last year is probably right the way i see it. But i just have a sneakin suspicion they are gonna deal with a few injuries that will derail the season a bit. Lets hope you are right and i'm wrong here.

 

[kjironman1]

Pretty sure a little of both.

The only injury that'd derail our season is if Dame or Nurkic gets hurt. Even with Nurkic, I think we could easily trade for an Ed Davis type in them middle of the season to help with that loss. If Dame gets hurt, I think we're better equipped to deal with that with Curry and Baldwin.

Shhhhhh.
I wasn't gonna name names.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Okay. Little earlier than I had said I would, but this should give more time for everyone to change their predictions 2189p375034985709857 times.

I will only use one prediction from each person and I will only use the last prediction.

For this seasons tiebreaker, we will go with CJ McCullom's 3pt% and for a tie breaker on that, include his total attempts. If CJ happens to be traded without enough data to use, we will move to another player at that time. If he is traded midway through the season or later we should have enough data to use. Which will make his total attempts pretty interesting.

No more predictions will be allowed after tip off of the first regular season game on Oct. 29th.

My prediction is:

50-32, 41% shooting on 424 attempts


GO!

My prediction this season; They are going to win some games but, they are going to lose some games too.

 

[Blazinaway]

Blazers win 39 games

 

[illmatic99]

46 wins

41%
509 attempts

Anyone want to take this over?

I have a basic spreadsheet with most of the predictions entered already built I can send to whoever.

Don't bail, man.

I get too much info from this place to not read up on things, but dont think i will be around often enough to keep up with this.
