    35 wins +/- 4.

    Basically, I see the team striking out in free agency meaning the year becomes a de facto rebuilding year. Morey is good at maximizing a cap that limits everyone, but this year few teams will be limited. Essentially, I think every free agent that Morey (or Clutchfans targets) will get paid a lot more than Morey is willing to pay. Plus the only sell on the team right now would be Harden in a fun fast offense. It may appeal to some FA's, but not many.

    Also, only 2 WC teams look like that they could take a step back: Memphis and Dallas. And Dallas will be trying to bring in some big name Free Agents, and Memphis just needs to keep Conley and get healthy. On top of that, I could easily see Utah, New Orleans, or another young WC team putting things together and getting to .500 and a 7/8th seed.

    If we whiff on every good free agent 30-52

    If we sign one good starter 44-38

    Always difficult to predict but I'd say we at best get something like 45/37

    If things get worse I'd say 35/47

    btw, this team was in the WCFs just a season ago. This past season, and the moves made so far by the front office, have completely smashed that, regardless of whether it was "fools gold" of a season.

    I would think in order to make a prediction it might behoove you to wait to see the roster at the beginning of the season (after FA, trades etc).

    No trade or FA can significantly offset Pringles

    Roster will probably* change quite a bit between now and the start of next season. Will have to revisit this in September.

    *hopefully
