Really hard to assess what this new-look team is going to be capable of . . as much as I want to say .500, I think 38-44 is somewhat of a leap in itself. The pure talent, scoring finesse and defensive tenacity will pave the way to anywhere near 35+ wins, and of course a new cohesion built on trust, flow and athleticism will have to be forged over the first 20 games. Can't really ask for any more than Magic, Luke and B-Shaw overseeing the performance, steering and guiding and tweaking the lineup to achieve maximum potential. I know everbody from Jeannie on down to new-addition Bogut will be all about striving for that 8th seed or bust, and if the squad can give us fans even an outside shot at that reality, the season will be an exciting one.
