                  2. Final position in Atlantic: don't care
                  3. Seed in East: Lottery
                  4. Bargnani Scoring/Rebounding Average: Play 35-36 minutes and put up similar numbers to last season after the New Year. 20ppg and 6rpg.
                  5. Will Bosh get traded (Yes/No)? Nope
                  6. Which rotation player will miss the most games due to injury? Meh, don't like predicting injuries.
                  7. Turkoglu Scoring Average: 15.5-17.0ppg
                  8. Other than Jack, our best sixth man will be: No idea. It should be Amir Johnson but Triano makes me nervous.
                  9. Record on January 1st (33 games): No interest.
                  10. One free prediction: The team would win 7-10 more games if Amir Johnson got Bargnani's minutes, and Bargnani got few-to-no minutes.

                            I've thought about it some more and want to revise my predictions. There's no middle ground with this team. They'll either get it together after about a month and be good or be a train wreck from start to finish. I'll stick with my original predictions about individual players but I'll give a worst-case/best-case number for the rest. I strongly suspect the worst-case is what will happen this season but actually see the logic of how BC has assembled this team.

                            1. Number of Wins:30/48
                            2. Final position in Atlantic: 4/2
                            3. Seed in East:11/5
                            4. Bargnani Scoring/Rebounding Average:
                            5. Will Bosh get traded (Yes/No)?
                            6. Which rotation player will miss the most games due to injury?
                            7. Turkoglu Scoring Average:
                            8. Other than Jack, our best sixth man will be:
                            9. Record on January 1st (33 games):
