    Ok, the regular season is upon us. How many wins will we total in the regular season? Are you:

    Catastrophist / Alarmist / Pessimist / Realist / Optimist / Idealist?

    Catastrophist: 0-10 wins
    Alarmist: 10-20 wins
    Pessimist: 20-30 wins
    Realist: 30-40 wins
    Optimist: 40-45 wins
    Idealist: anything over 45 wins

    My number is 32 which qualifies me as a Realist.

    The poster with the most accurate prediction will win....... my undying admiration!

    66-16.

    Sweep the Floppers in Round 1.

    Beat the Spurs in 6 in the West Semi's.

    Beat the Warriors in 7 in the West Finals.

    Take down the Kang in five in the Finals.

    Timofey Mozgov cements his legacy as the best big man in Lakers history with a dominant performance with averages of 34 and 17.

    I predicted 35 wins in another thread during the summer. I'm sticking with it.

    Realist: 30-40 wins.

    I was thinking between 30 to 35. Anything less will be a disappointment.

    We have Luke, our guys are older and more experienced now, Ingram might surprise here and there, Young looks like he wants to actually play basketball. I will double the last years win total, so 34. Yup, seems legit. Honestly, I'd be OK with 30-34 and good player development. We're not winnig 40, no way.

    Between 28 and 36 games is what I'll expect. 40 would turn heads.

    I'm an optimist at heart, but I gotta be a realist for now. 34 wins is my mark. If we get 40, I'll be ecstatic.
