    51-31. More minutes will be spent on development and keeping KD fresh.

    This team could be just as good as the Harden Paul team.

    Going to be exciting year with all the vet additions, and young group of rising talents.
    Okc might be tad nervous include the league.

    57-25

    Without Jalen Green's mindless chucking and Cam Whitmore sitting on the bench making pouty faces we're doomed.

    12-70

    I’ll say 57 wins with huge error bars.

    No poll? I voted 48-52 last year, so pretty close. I think we end up in the 52-56 this year. More if all our stars are healthy most of the year.

    I think the range really is hard to nail. Lots of teams in the West got better on paper. It is all about injuries.

    The optimistic prediction is 55-60+ wins range barring anything unforeseen. Which hopefully the young guys make a leap, the offense improves with Durant and the defense stays elite.

    Fewer wins than last year. I think Ime's emphasis on consistent defensive effort, combined with our relative health and availability as a young team, produced an overperformance in the regular season, which was then exposed in the playoffs.

    The KD trade and the addition of older players changes the equation. We'll have less availability in the regular season. But in exchange, we'll be better equipped to win in the playoffs.

    Between 50 and 58 wins depending on injuries and other “luck” factors. Chances of home court in 1st round are very, very high. Repeating as a top 2 seed is doable but won’t be easy.

    That’s exactly what I was thinking. We really squeezed out a lot of wins in the regular season. It may be hard to match that win total.
