Holy crap, you actually think the Clippers are going to hit 65?! That is BOLD my friend I really like the Clippers. They finally have an acceptable bench, Doc is actually staggering!!! It's like he realized what year we're in finally. Their defense is nice as always. I think DJ might make a DPOY level leap defensively....if they could just get the SF they've needed, drafted, and traded away the last four years and keep him and develop him for once I'd like them a lot more. They might not hit 65 but I have a feeling they'll be very very close to that. no way, if they have very few injuries I think 60 is possible I guess. it's not about talent these guys just don't have the motivation to win regular season games and don't start playing at their highest level until close to the all star break, which is how doc wants them to be

He could and should be every bit as good defensively as those guys but he's still on the horford tier.

draymond is not a center and his rim protection is not at dj's level

If anything I'm over estimating them. And OutRosez not sure you noticed, but I only gave the Celtics 80 games in their record I predicted (face palm)

You could be right if there is a severe winter True. And they did finish with 81 games 3 years ago That was due to the Boston Marathon bombing. Two seasons ago was the worst winter we've had for a long time, but no games were missed surprisingly

So I'm taking each team's win-loss percentage right now and extrapolating that into what it would be if they keep winning at the same percent. Then to the right of that will be their actual record. For example Cleveland is winning 70% of their games right now and they're 39-16 over the course of the full 82 game season that equals out to 57 wins. Which is what our dearly departed Zoom had them at winning. I'm going to list them as the following: team city (CLE in this case)- Current W/L and what that record equals out to and then who is the closest to that. So...Cleveland 32-32, 57-25 Zoom. and the guess will follow after that. Atlanta, 32-24, 46.74, Zoom/Suguru Boston, 37-20, 53-29, Wade (52)/Suguru (54) Brooklyn, 9-47, 13-69 lol, ballup and suguru (16) Charlotte, 24,-32, 35-47, Legends (41) Chicago, 28-29, 40-42, ballup (40) Dallas, 22-34, 32-50, ballup/Rosez (39) Denver, 25-31, 37-45, ballup/Rosez (36) Detroit, 27-30, 38-44, Rosez (42) Golden State, 47-9, 69-13, Suguru 68/ Rosez, Legends (70) Houston, 40-18, 57-25, Rosez (48) Indiana, 29-28, 42-40,Rosez (39) LA Clippers, 35-21, 52-30, Wade/Zoom (51), Legends (53) LA Other team, 19-39, 27-55 Ballup/Wade/Rosez (22) Memphis, 34-24, 47-35, Rosez (44) Miami, 25-32, 36-46, ballup (32) Milwaukee, 25-30, 37-45, Suguru (37) Minnesota, 22-35, 32-50, Suguru/Legends (36) New Orleans, 23-34, 33-49, Rosez/Suguru (32), ballup (34) New York, 23-34, 33-49, Wade/Zoom (32) OKC, 32-25, 46-36, ballup/zoom/suguru all off by 3 in a different direction Orlando, 21-37, 30-52, Suguru (30) Philly, 21-35, 31-51, Rosez (27) Phoenix, 18-39, 26-56, Suguru (25) Portland, 23-33, 34-48, Half of us (48) Sacramento, 24-33, 34-48, Suguru (32) San Antonio, 43-13, 63-19, ballup (63) Toronto,33-24, 47-35, Wade/Rosez (50) Utah, 35-22, 50-32, Rosez/Suguru (50) Washington, 34-21, 51-21, Legends (45) ballup, WayOfWad3, Suguru101 Last Standall star standings

It's crazy how none of us might get few/any points from Brooklyn, Houston, and Portland.

I'm more interested in the order of the standings rather than the records. Quite proud of my OKC prediction so far. Not so proud of my Pacers/Blazers ones.

How could SA do this to me. You were supposed to lose a step without Duncan!
Rockets too. Wtf.
Pacers...
But I love how I have two exact "prediction to projected record" picks. Feels good.

Now feel free to double check me because, I'm no math magician after all. But I do believe i have the correct results. Sug fucking nailed it with the last third of the league (basically). 4 9s, 2 10s and 3 shitty scores, but this man knows those teams well.
