    BR predicts us to win 54 games, FWIW. 7 game drop-off from last season, which isn't totally farfetched tbh.


    Western Conference

    • 2. Houston Rockets (62-20), 100 percent playoff probability, 10/1 le odds
    • 3. San Antonio Spurs (54-28), 95 percent playoff probability, 16/1 le odds
    • 4. Oklahoma City Thunder (51-31), 95 percent playoff probability, 20/1 le odds
    • 5. Minnesota Timberwolves (48-34), 75 percent playoff probability, 20/1 le odds
    • 6. Utah Jazz (45-37), 65 percent playoff probability, 200/1 le odds
    • 7. Denver Nuggets (44-38), 55 percent playoff probability, 150/1 le odds
    • 8. Los Angeles Clippers (43-39), 50 percent playoff probability, 100/1 le odds
    • 9. Memphis Grizzlies (41-41), 50 percent playoff probability, 300/1 le odds
    • 10. New Orleans Pelicans (40-42), 45 percent playoff probability, 150/1 le odds

    • 12. Dallas Mavericks (32-50), 17 percent playoff probability, 300/1 le odds
    • 13. Sacramento Kings (31-51), 15 percent playoff probability, 1,000/1 le odds
    • 14. Los Angeles Lakers (29-53), 3 percent playoff probability, 100/1 le odds

    Spurs better hope det chemistry wins some games early, otherwise they very well may struggle to make the postseason.

    Spurs will definitely win 50 games and make the postseason. What I'm doubting is - between the old men, Fatty, and LMA: - the Spurs making it past the second round.

    Playing Eastern teams before their confidence dwindles and playing western teams at the end jockeying for playoff position. It's about what I've come to expect.

    Do we play Denver back to back (2-13/2-23) both on the road on the rodeo road trip? Is that the first time that has happened?

    Honestly pretty sure that's the first time that's ever happened in league history, at least since the expansions near the turn of the century... I've followed NBA schedules since 2001 pretty religiously and that's never happened before. Home and away, yes, but playing both games in the same venue back-to-back? I know there's a break, but that's the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. They always try to splice out like games.

    But it may be a side effect we see more often from now on of Silver trying to slowly but surely cut down on back-to-backs and such.

    Spurs have a horrible schedule. They are predicted to win 54 games and finish 3rd in the West. Kawhi is going to have to carry them because we don't know how LMA, Gay and the rookies will play together.

    I assume your post-season starts after the semis then?

    I'd even say that the Spurs have a better chance of the 1 seed than the lottery.

    So here is my breakdown ... only 14 b2bs ... in general the Spurs lose their advantage of earlier years because teams with shorter rotations have more rest time now.

    October 2017: 6-1
    Easy start into the season which will make the Spurs look strong in the Power Rankings. Minnesota will be tough this season, but the Spurs normally start with a W! Raptors at home is a win as well. Only loss against the Celtics as the Spurs are on a b2b.

    November 2017: 9-5
    This month starts against the Warriors ... a loss of course. Next night against the Hornets I have a loss as well. Then a five game winning streak will follow until they lose in Minny on a b2b. 3rd game in 4 nights against the Thunder, so a loss as well although its at home. 1 more loss against the Pelicans (Spurs always struggle there), but otherwise they pick up wins.

    December 2017: 8-8
    The final month of 2017 does not look good. We start with a win in the Grindhouse. A loss at OKC is a given most of the time. This also starts the 5 games in 7 nights stretch and I think losses will come against the Celtics and in Phoenix a night later. After a win against the Mavs the losses pile up in Houston, Dallas and even against the Clips at home. I only see them winning against the Blazers, Nets, Knicks and Pistons to end the year on a positive note.

    January 2018: 12-4
    Things turn around in January. Another 5 game in 7 night stretch to start, thats why I envision losses against the 76ers and Kings (both on b2bs). After picking up 4 wins in a row against mediocre teams, a loss will come in Toronto. Spurs will beat the Cavs at home, but then comes the occasional loss at the Grindhouse even if Z-Bo is not playing there anymore. Spurs end the month with 3 more wins.

    February 2018: 6-3
    Not many games because of the All-Star break. First time in some time we do not play the Clips after the break. Losses will come against Houston, at Golden State and at Cleveland.

    March 2018: 7-7
    Like December March looks tough ... after winning two at home the Spurs have to go against three top teams in the West (Hou, GS, OKC) ... and because all games are on the road I expect them to lose all of them. Following is a six game home stand with losses against the Timberwolves and the Warriors. They could win against Minny, but fatigue may be a factor because there are many games to be played in this month. They will struggle on the road against the Bucks and Wizards (2 more losses), before getting a nice home win against OKC.

    April 2018: 6-0
    If Popovich does not rest everybody, I see them finishing April without a loss in the regular season. They even beat Houston in SA.

    Overall: 54-28
    Well, thats the same prediction as BR had. I think its a fair game when no major player gets injured. I have no wins against GS ... we might pick one up, but then we will lose against a crappy EC team which will set this off.

    I kind of feel like the Thunder will be better than the Spurs and I wouldn't doubt a dog fight with Houston in the standings.
