anywhere between 47 and 50 wins and we are looking at major imrovements over the last 5 years. I believe our "best record that didnt get us into the playoffs" was 45-37, so if we finish 12 over at 47-35 I'm happy. Anything after that is signs of good things to come in our future.
I figured 48 wins was a realistic goal at the beginning of the season and I'm sticking with that prediction. That would require them to go 11-8 the rest of the way which is reasonable. And given Denver's recent struggles, 48 wins oughta be enough to secure at least the 7th seed.
Currently 14-16 on the road but going to finish 9-2...now that is some optimism. At least two of those games are wrong
At the beginning of the season, I felt like we had a shot at 50 wins. Still feel we can achieve it. If we do, we will have achieved that consistency that JVG keeps talking about. If we don't, well, it's still been a fun season with only better things in store for next year. I truly believe that next year, barring injury we will be challenging for #1 seed.
