Trap games are @ Orlando, @ Clips, @ sactown, @ Houston
This is a pretty tough stretch, I would say 6-2 sounds about right, dont see us going 8-0
Spurs will be without Manu, but news of Timmy nearing a comeback should be a boost to our defense (Parker said it could happen as early as the Florida trip)..Not that difficult slate of games with 3 soft B2Bs set..
Feb 9 @ Miami L
Feb 10 @ Orlando W
Feb 18 @ Los Angeles Clippers W
Feb 19 @ Los Angeles Lakers W
Feb 21 @ Phoenix W
Feb 24 @ Sacramento W
Feb 25 @ UTAH L
Feb 27 @ Houston W
W-L= 6-2

I see us 6-2 as well, mostly bc these games are on the road and the bench without Manu will need to step up. Patty and Danny need to continue shooting well and on the road they are unpredictable.
We need production from Simmons and Anderson and they will be up and down from game to game. Boris needs to increase his production. Overall a 6-2 record and no injuries is good.
Getting Tim back will be huge!
All those teams are either near implosion or shorthanded. while both Heat and Jazz have played far better as they got healthy..Clippers will be without Blake and our PGs-killer Auscrub Rivers..Spurs will go all in with the B2B being in the same building vs Lakers..
Theres really no argument to us going 8-0 but things never work that way so i'll say 7-1.
Yeah 6-2
lol, will bump when we lose to the trap teams I listed or bump and eat crow if its to either the Jazz or Heat![]()
Way the Spurs have looked as of late, a .500 trip wouldn't surprise me. However, if Tim comes back to start it and the defense responds like I hope, all the games are winnable.
7-1
The way we looked as of late?... 8-2 in our last 10 with the only two losses coming to the teams with the best and third best record in the league, both games on the road? I swear some of you guys just sniff glue all day. We have a letdown game against the Lakers after demolishing the Mavs by 40 and yall are cliffjumping. Any other year and we are games ahead of the next closest team in the standings. But since the Warriors are having an all time season, you cliff jump if we dont demolish every opponent by 20+ points.
There's holes in the boat regardless of how you want to spin it.
They've looked mediocre against generally bad opponents outside that first half against Dallas. While LMA and Kawhi have shined offensively, everyone has looked bad on defense. Tony has also looked bad on both ends. The schedule is about to amp up, so if these issues aren't fixed soon that record is gonna turn ugly ala the 2011 team.
7-1
Fine, but what did you expect? That they'd go coast to coast at an unsustainable pace? Lulls are inevitable in an 82 game season, for a myriad of reasons. The Warriors had one a few weeks back and they'll have another one at some point before the season ends.
I could see the blowout losses to the Warriors/Cavs coming a mile away and I wasn't the least bit surprised to see a close game against the Lakers after destroying the Mavs.
The Florida back to back will be tough. The Heat are in "we need to prove to ourselves we're better than middle of the pack" mode and the Magic are overdue for a good stretch. A lot of times, it's not who you play, but when you play them.
This lull has been happening since New Years tbh. Offensively the team has been getting better thanks to LMA finding his groove, but the defense just hasn't looked good. This trend notably coincides with Tim starting to struggle and his time off. Hopefully he comes back fresh and ready to go the rest of the way, but if he looks the same as he did when these struggles began, I just don't think the team can get to the level they need to.
