I'm going to work on updating the schedule for our site, but initial thoughts are solid. Clippers (National Game), @Suns, Pelicans, Wizards (National Game), Raptors, @Jazz, Pistons, @Blazers (National Game), Nets, and Grizzlies. That's our first 10 games. We could win 3-5 of those games. @C Bags (National Game), @Wizards, @Bucks, Suns, Sixers (National Game), Suns, Nuggets, Bulls, @Kings (National Game), @Clippers. We could win 3-5 of those games. Warriors, @Nuggets, Rockets, @Sixers (National Game), Hornets, @Knicks, @Cavs, Warriors, Rockets, @Warriors. Good Lord. We could win 0-3 of those. Blazers, Wolves (National Game), Grizzlies, Clippers, @Rockets, @Wolves, Thunder (National Game), Hornets, Hawks, Kings. We could win 3-7 of those. Spurs, @Mavs, @Grizzlies (National Game), @Thunder (National Game), Pacers, Knicks, C Bags (National Game), @Bulls, @Raptors, @Magic. We could win 4-6 of those. @Nets, @Thunder (National Game), Suns, Thunder (National Game), @Mavs, @Pelicans, @Wolves (National Game), Mavs, @Kings, @Hawks. We could win 3-6 of those games. Hawks, @Heat, @Spurs, Blazers, Magic, @Nuggets, Cavs (National Game), Nuggets, @Warriors (National Game), Heat. We could win 2-3 of those games... maybe. @Pacers, @Pelicans, @Grizzlies, @Pistons, Mavs, Bucks, Kings, @Jazz, Spurs, Wolves, Jazz, @Rockets, @Clippers. We could win 3-6 of those games maybe. So apparently I think we max out at about 41 wins and bottom out at about 21 wins. We probably land at about 31 wins though so that makes some sense. I included the national games because we have a LOT early on as you can see. I didn't even include the games that'll be on NBATV too (12 more games), I only included the ones on TNT, ESPN, and ABC. I bet there's options to move us up and get more national games late if we're doing awesome, but they aren't counting on us finishing strong. All-in-all I think we have a shot to a strong opening again this season, but our stretch through late November through December is brutal. If we make it out of that alive, we can spend the rest of the year trying to limp back to .500.
If we play at the same pace we did during Summer League, we're going to catch the bad teams off balance with a ton of hit ahead passes. They won't be ready for it, but the good teams will. That's why I'm optimistic for 35+ wins if my prediction is right.
Gone are 4 games in 5 nights. Our longest road trip is only 5 games, spread over 11 days. National games, 35. We play OKC (PG) on the day of the trade deadline.
The Schedule section on LB is now up to date. I've included the national coverages in the titles. If a game is on the schedule, but doesn't have a channel next to it, it's on Spectrum. Click on the individual games to see start times.
IF we have a decent record and competitive/entertaining...ABC could possibly flip some games on their schedule to slot us in.
Can someone please copy/paste the home schedule in text form. All websites have the games in graphic form so i can't copy and paste into word. A single graphic with all the games would be ok too. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks, but I'm looking for it in list format. What i need to do is compile a list of all 41 home games and then rank them in order from highest to lowest demand to give to my sister in law. Her business partners buy really nice 100 level season tickets, all splitting the cost. then they have like a draft lottery round and round to choose the games they each want. She's only a casual fan so every year I make a list of the highest priority games she should try to claim first. I can make a list myself, but its a pain. Id rather find a complete list that i can copy/paste into word. See what I mean now?
