With the current team as is, no. I'd give it a 5% chance, but I think they will give a good fight.

A 5% chance is significantly better than a 0% chance.  19:1 odds would generally make the team about the 7th most likely to win the title, which seems like a longshot, but not impossible.

Yes! It will take a lot of luck, but yes I think this team can win 4 of 7 against anyone.

No, we are not a good enough team with KG out of the game... unless something happens before the trade deadline I just can not see it.

Surprised to see the majority saying no. Glad to see some of you take off the green colored goggles and be realistic. I to say no. Just not good enough to beat the heat 4 out of 7 times and quite frankly we might not be good enough to get past a roseless bulls team. Still, at least this team is fun to watch now. Ill be watching and praying for a miracle come playoff time.
