Bobcats 3-3....is an 8 seed out of the question?

[mightybosstone]

Its hard for me to name Bobcat players I don't anything about them.

So I have no idea.

Thanks for bringing that to the table. This discussion would have gone nowhere if not for this brilliant insight.

Too early to tell. I'm not sure if they can play good and consistant on the road.

they won't make the playoffs. they will still be in contention for a top three pick come lottery.

The 2011 Cavs went 7-9 through their first 16 games. people were thinkin, wow- they aren't that bad, maybe they'll be near .500 by the end of the year. But the writing was on the wall. Their SRS gave them away.

The 2011 Cavs had a SRS of -8.88 (30/30). They ended up finishing 19-63.

The 2013 Bobcats (despite being .500) have an SRS of -6.15 (25th/30).

Looking at these numbers, I'd say the Bobcats will finish with a low-five record, and will get a top 7 draft pick for 2014.

they're young, they're fun to watch, they have way more potential than the 2011 Cavs, but they still don't know how to win.

Nope but they have a nice future. I loved their pick right away with MKG. Happy for them, they deserve it after such a rough season.

4-3.

I know we have played some teams with injury issues, especially tonight, but we are dealing with injury issues of our own, and wins are wins. Three wins away from matching our total from last year, and we haven't even played 1/8 of the season yet.

Small victories.

If they do Kemba for MIP and MKG for ROY.

Do you really think your injury issues are even comparable to the team you beat tonight?

I want him to say yes.

Wow. Pistons have -10.88. Shabazz here we come!

I said the same thing in the fear the deer thread, 7 games into the season, lakers are the 2nd worst team in the west, and the NY Knicks win the East. both are not hapening. things will change, good start but nothing to boast about yet.
