New Orleans Pelicans over Orlando Magic

That one's close, so if you had picked Orlando, then we would have been guaranteed to get it right.

Which day have we had full agreement on the most number of games?

Have we ever had full agreement on a 2 game day?

Non-Standard Prediction: Will Dirk Nowitzki pass Wilt Chamberlain in points?

Currently: Wilt - 31,419
Dirk Nowitski - 31,298

26 games left.

4.69 PPG needed.
Averages 4.44 in 10.8 minutes per game.

At this pace, he will be 6 points short.

 

[MHSL82]

Who will finish with more points at the end of the season all time: Kevin Durant or Dwayne Wade?

Dwayne Wade: 22,703
Kevin Durant: 22,426

I think Durant, easy. The gap isn’t big enough without KD injury for Wade to stay in front.

If Durant, will Durant catch Elgin Baylor (23,149) this season? On pace for 23,168... sounds like yes, but 27.51 is hard to maintain down the stretch.

 

[MHSL82]

Will Pau Gasol get to 21,000 points?

Currently: 21,890
On pace: 21,991.

I say no because he won’t play every game.

 

[MHSL82]

Will James Harden pass Westbrook?

Player: Current (Pace)
Westbrook: 18,203 (18,755)
Harden: 17,743 (18,691)

Depends on injuries. But I’d say Westbrook stays in front.

Non-Standard Prediction: Will Dirk Nowitzki pass Wilt Chamberlain in points?

Currently: Wilt - 31,419
Dirk Nowitski - 31,298

26 games left.

4.69 PPG needed.
Averages 4.44 in 10.8 minutes per game.

At this pace, he will be 6 points short.

No.

Will Pau Gasol get to 21,000 points?

Currently: 21,890
On pace: 21,991.

I say no because he won’t play every game.

Did you mean 22,000?

 

[nuraman00]

New Orleans was a disaster tonight.

I had some fun bonus prediction to ask, but now I can't remember what it was.

Bump, @MHSL82?

Also best day road %.

Or do you want to wait until the end of the season for these?
