Remaining 17 games.....easy schedule....predict record.

Post by Hicks123 [enjin:6700838] »

Even with easy schedule, I am guessing 4-13. While these other teams are bad, we are equally bad and I expect more guys to sit.

Tank-O-Meter says 6-11, but that includes home wins over the Pelicans and the Nets tonight, so your 4 isn't too bad a prediction. All depends on whether our starters can play or not. If we go with the same 8 we went with in SA for the rest of the year, we could go 0-17!

My fellow wolves fans, please don't watch anymore games this year. Find better things to do with your time.

My response is who cares? Seriously, let the young guys play, work on their fundamentals and get that high draft pick for hopefully the last time in a decade! We can, and likely will debate every thing each and every member of the organization did wrong this year between now and next season, the other option would be to go outside and enjoy life! ;)

Agreed lol. All the young guys need 20 min a game and mix in good time with Rubio & KG in hopes they can help bring things out of them and mesh. Lets also keep Wiggins down around 30 min.

I think they will really go all in on the tank. More guys will be sitting due to "injury". They are not going to let the Lakers tank past them on the way to more lotto balls. I think the Wolves win 3 or 4 more games this rest of this year while keeping a close eye on how the Lakers do. Ultimately (because we are the Wolves) they are not going to do a good enough job of tanking to pass PHI or NY. And I'm not holding my breath that we'll improve ourselves in the lottery either.

It never pays to tank. It's an insult to fans and season ticket holders that pay good money to watch professional basketball. And to your point, there is always at least a couple of other teams in the "race to the bottom". Is that really what we stand for? This is how losing cultures are built - brick by brick.

Well its been 10 years, we've already built a house with those bricks. What's the shame in building a garage too at this point.

I was predicting 9 more wins before tonight in which case we would finish with 23 wins. But tonight's game against the Nets was one of the 9 additional wins I predicted. I also didn't foresee Ricky, Pek and KG sitting out multiple games. But we still have an easy schedule, so I still see us getting 6 more wins. The Lakers and Sixers have much tougher schedules. So I still see us finishing with the 4th worst record. But at least we're no longer in danger of climbing to 5th or 6th worst.
