I predicted 3-1. Expected a loss at Rockets, but thought we'd win against struggling Wiz. Thought Hornets would be the 2nd toughest game of the trip lol. Hope we get at win at Nets.

Nets have been playing well lately. Dlo just exploded last game after struggling for a bit. Dinwiddie has been very good for a while. Road trip is already disappointing since we can’t get a winning record, but ending up with a 1-3 trip would be pretty bad.

Too much overconfidence in our team. I see a lot of 3 and 4 win road trip predictions in here.

We're still too unpredictable. We don't always show up, even in our wins. So until that happens, you're going to see up and down performances and more of a .500 result on road trips depending on the opponents.


When it’s a 1 superstar team (even if it’s Lebron), it’s tough to win without the depth in a compressed schedule scenario.

Just need to go 2-2 and get Ingram/Rondo back for the home games this weekend. Should have been a 3-1 trip but can’t expect Lebron at his age and mileage to be Lebron and the young core have yet to prove they can consistently bring it on a nightly basis. Just salvage the final game of road trip, 1-3 against those teams is no bueno.


Yeah. Usually what I do is go down the schedule and pick W/L by what SHOULD happen. Then, depending on how many games there are, I'll turn a couple should-be wins into losses because there's always an unexpected loss. Even the Warriors lost to us in their 73-9 season. Haha.

So we should have probably gone 3-1, but I adjust by turning a should-be win to a loss for a 2-2 prediction. We still have a game to go of course.

Nets have won 5 in-a-row. Right now they are a dangerous team.

Holy (bleep) we were all wrong LOL

We actually (bleep) suck. Lebron ain't going to save this team, we need Jesus

Dare I say what we all might be thinking; did we trade the wrong guy?
