Predictions: Playoffs or Lottery?

[BC867]

Hello lottery. . .

Before Frye's injury, we were fighting to make the playoffs, hopefully higher than the 8th spot.

After Frye's injury -- if Carter (who is a strong wing) and Hill can fill the gap every game, with help off the bench from Dudley and Pietrus, we might just still be fighting to make the playoffs, hopefully higher than the 8th spot.

I'm not a fan of small-ball, but we have no choice now.

Will LOLopez still start? I think this pushes Gortat into the starting role. If Gentry still sticks with Lopez we'll see our season slide into the depths of hell. I was okay with Lopez starting with Frye since Frye turned his game up a few levels but now...

Sucks for Frye and sucks for the team. Exactly what did he dislocate?

We'll be seeing a lot more of Hakim 'D?' Warrick.

I like this team (finally), but I'm not sure I wouldn't prefer a better draft position than a "one and done" playoff series. I hope I'm wrong, but this team needs stuff to be a contender.

I dont like this team,but whether or not this team makes the playoffs and gets bounced early,makes a run,or misses the playoffs entirely....their "stock" is dropping(and has been for 4 years IMO).

I dont think thats going to change anytime soon unfortunately. The strategy to recycle around Nashball will likely continue beyond this season,and the next,and the next....despite the results.

Best of luck to them in their quest for....whatever,but i wont be watching.
Sincerely,i've got to give credit to those who believe in what this franchise is doing

....because i certainly don't.

I hope they start Lopez cause that would be a great way of tanking. We can take a top 10 pick and get someone good.

Well if Channing is only out 2 games, we still have a chance.

I would be against any major line up shifts that could disrupt our chemistry. Especially our 2nd unit which is just killer.

I would like to see a few less minutes for Carter, Nash, and Hill though. Quality minutes for these guys are more valuable than quantity.
