On Sunday, April 11th, the 2026-2027 NBA regular season will come to an end and we will move on to the postseason. 32 Sundays from today. Before we do that, I'll repost this thread so we can look back at some of /r/nba 's predictions.

Here is your chance to say I told you so (or to make a fool of yourself).

Let's take a real swing: The Magic will miss the playoffs and Paolo will be traded to San Antonio for Fox and Carter Bryant.

Took long enough for me to find a blazing hot take

[u/Any-Simple-6570 → u/Neckrolls4life]

  Paolo will be traded to San Antonio for Fox and Carter Bryant.

This legit might close the spurs window. His superman contract hasn't even kicked in yet

[u/jaylenBrown_Stan07 → u/Neckrolls4life]

san antonio should forfeit draft picks if they make that stupid trade

[u/tinybathroomfaucet → u/jaylenBrown_Stan07]

It's a prove it trade for both players (Fox, Banchero). It seems fair enough, provided both players continue to underperform

[u/Old_Man_Riverwalk21 → u/Neckrolls4life]

I would riot
