00:00It is time for your official Mavericks season prediction.
00:19Now this can look however you want.
00:21You can say 55 and 27, you can say first in the west, you can whatever direction you want
00:26to go.
00:27Why are you taking my opinions?
00:28That is not my opinion.
00:29I am leaning towards 55 wins.
00:31Okay.
00:32That'd be five better than last year.
00:34They probably could have won 51 or 52.
00:36Remember the last two games they just took, they intentionally like, we're good.
00:40We got the five seed.
00:41There's probably no chance of getting the four seed.
00:43We can't go to the six seed.
00:44So I'm leaning towards 55 wins and in a way I hope I'm wrong because 55 wins will not
00:51be the one seed.
00:52I know that.
00:53I'm not sure if 55 wins will be the two seed.
00:56Okay.
00:57You said you, you said, you know that.
01:00Well, I think in the history of the Western conference, 55 wins has never gotten the one.
01:06I think it'd be very rare.
01:07Heck, there's a time and place where 50 wins was the eight seed.
01:12So just 50, I could see that just last year for whatever it's worth.
01:16Cause I'm curious how top heavy this is going to be.
01:20It was 57 year before it was 53.
01:25So 53 was the best record.
01:27Yep.
01:28I think you're lying.
01:29I'm telling you in the West, in just the West, not for the whole NBA in the West, 53, two
01:37years ago.
01:38I think 55 has got a shot, Denver.
01:41Wow.
01:42Teams really hate the regular season now.
01:44Don't they?
01:45Look, I don't think you're telling the truth.
01:47Okay.
01:48You can look it up and fact check me.
01:49I am telling the truth.
