The 55 win pace you mentioned is the unrealistic best case scenario. Take a look around the league. Yes COVID hit the Mavs hard. But other teams suffered from similiar problems. Portland played most of the season without their starting center. McCollum missed 24 games and needed some time to get back in rhythm. I already mentioned the Lakers. Imagine the Mavs but this time it is not only KP that is missing games. Luka is out for 26 games as well.
If you want to make your predicitions based on a best case scenario feel free to do it. Don´t be suprised if they are off.

I agree with some of this, but I think we took a much bigger hit than just about the entire NBA due to Covid.  If KP gets that injury in a normal playoff timeline, he has plenty of time to recuperate and be ready for the start of the season.  This team also had way more lost games and lost starter games than just about any team (I think the Heat was the only team close).  That is different than your typical injury concerns.  It was a unique once a lifetime circumstance that really screwed this team.
