6-game homestand (Jan 8-18): bounce back or sink?

[Raptorsnz]

I'll go 4-2. If Atlanta continues to play this way, nobody's beating them.

We're due for a trap game here, hmmmmmm.... can't look off Detroit. SVG's looking like a genius right now.

I don't think we're due for a trap game, I mean we've only lost 1 game to a losing team (Lakers). At this point I wouldn't even call the Detroit game a trap game, just a genuine tough one. They won in SA last night after being behind by 20 so they're good.

[Cody73]

5-1 or 4-2. I was wrong and said 4-2 or 3-3 last time...

[Mack North]

6-0

Yup. Who's afraid of Detroit? Atalnta? pssshhhhhhhh

And none of these are back-to-back? Even better.

6-0

4-2, I think atlanta will beat us, and post josh smith detroit has been pretty good, have a strong rebounding front court and quick guard in jennings, which are both things we've been struggling with.

That's probably going to be a loss then

I'm banking on the fact that our defense has picked itself by then, and that DD's transitioned back in by then also.

Also the New Orleans game is a 3:30 game on a Sunday. It's at home this time but still worth mentioning.

[raptors999]

12-1 with a tie

[SamMitchells]

Anything worse than 5-1 is extremely upsetting.

[Bendit]

5-1

Reason for optimism: Trusting the defensive rust is off and the players are getting some good loving at home

[MixxAOR]

damn I could see us going 3-3. Boston, Detroit are tough. Atlanta is obviously a different beast from last time we played. New Orleans could be a problem too. I'll go 3-3

[rocwell]

0-6

[Bonus Jonas]

4-2 at worst. Charlotte, Boston, Detroit and Philadelphia should be sure fire wins. Atlanta we've already beat but that was early, they've been really really good since. And then New Orleans should be a win but Anthony Davis has the skills (and whistle respect) to steal it.

I'll go with 5-1. Loss the Atlanta.
