I asked for it, so I guess I 'll set it up.

Same poll as last season: How many regular season games (2024-25) do you think we will we have Book, Beal, and Durant all available to play?

Post your response so we can compare back to it at the end of the season. Also, pick a single number so we can have a clear winner(s). Whoever are closest wins (nothing). Doesn't matter if it's over or under. The poll is only open for five days so act fast. Get your range and number post in by October 28 1pm MST to qualify.

UPDATE as of 11/28/2024 (Happy Thanksgiving!):

Well, we're off to a much better start since all three are good for opening night. I was thinking about going conservative in the 42-58 range but decided to go up a level with a conservative number in that range. I'll go with 60 games.

I went with 29-41 on the gamble that one of them (KD?) will have some kind of semi-serious injury setback this year. KD played a bunch of minutes last season and in the summer Olympics, and he's getting older.

Edit: specific number of games together, my prediction is 37.

42-58 for me. I think they will play more than half the season together and be ready for the playoffs.

I've said the following to myself ever since we acquired Kevin Durant:

KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3
KD will not age like CP3

I bet you short sell stocks, too. And play the Don't Pass line in Craps.

42-58, but I think it will be on the low end of that range, 45 or fewer.

Remember the rules, you have to pick a number as well for the tie breaker.

I picked 59-69, as I'm optimistic that injuries won't be as bad this season. But, I do think we will see Bud rest them sometimes. I'll pick the middle of the range: 64.

BTW, which one of you mods grew my "Big <===3 " into "Big <=====3" ? hmm? :shock: :oops: :lol:
