Really goin' out on a limb, there.

1. Cut a hole in a box
2. Put your Kirk in that box
3. Make some team open that box

though trust me

I want to have the gall to predict 34 wins for the Bulls, giving me some solace if it actually happened and I have to watch all the shitty basketball.

But I can’t, they’ll win 40-44 games.

if Rose takes a LeBron or Durant-ian leap this year, the Bulls could be looking at 46-47 wins, if

they are healthy and everything else falls right.

The Durantian leap helped the Thunder to improve by 3 wins in his second season, after dropping quite a bit the previous year after Allen and Lewis were gone

Did Durant not make a great individual leap in his production?

LeBron didn’t make the playoffs until his 3rd season, and he was in the East.

The 2009 White Sox....like a 40 degree day.

If I go out on a limb and predict 60 wins,

do I get a cookie?
I like cookies.

Years of practice from saying "The Warriors will win between 28-35 games and miss the playoffs"

Somebody there (in the comments)...

wouldn’t trade Anthony Randolph for Derrick Rose straight up (although he would if you add Thomas for Monta). Is this a joke ?

The Game chose him !

It's called the endowment effect. It's been studied exstensively in behavioral economics and

psychology. Over and over people overvalue the things that they already have over the things that they are offered. There’s a certain sense of “mine” that makes people overvalue the stuff they have at the expense of things they are offered in exchange for the thing they have already.

So that's where Noe_Valley comes from?

No wonder he doesn’t understand the GarPaxDorf hate.

"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty six times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."- Michael Jordan
