We were all off on the Fakers prediction but hey, who knows that they might start dropping down after the all star break.

When this year is done, is there any chance you or @colton can go back through all the seasons we’ve done this and give us an averaged ranking? Could be interesting, eh?

Jazz have a solid chance of catching and passing the Lakers! We have better shooters, more depth and play together more than they do.

We have to make up five games in less than half a season. Barring an injury, it ain’t happening.

Making up 5 games in 42 games is duck soup! We may make up two more by the end of this week! Lebron starts to wear down toward the end of the season and there new guy is already having injury issues.

Same rules as last year.....

1. Post your final standings prediction for all 15 teams.

2.All predictions are frozen at first regular season game tip-off. Any changes are okay before then.

3. Your score is based on the net difference between your prediction and standings. For example, if you pick the Clippers to be first and they are in fourth, you receive 3 points for the Spurs. Low score wins.

4. Ranking is based on win% only.

5. Tied teams each receive an averaged score. For example, two teams tied for 5th/6th place are each scored as 5.5. Three teams tied for 10/11/12 are each scored as 11.

6. I'll post standings periodically through the season.

7. Please use the same acronyms and format as below. This makes my spreadsheeting easier.

Here are my preliminary picks to get the ball rolling (this will change before the season starts). While my brain says clippers 1 and Jazz 2, I'm sticking with my homerism only because I never want a reason to root against my guys.

1. UTA
2. DEN
3. LAC
4. HOU
5. SAC
6. DAL
7. GSW
8. NOP
9. LAL
10. SAS
11. POR
12. MIN
13. PHX
14. OKC
15. MEM

I unsuccessfully tried to pawn this off on Jazzfan4life, haha. If someone else wants to administer this contest, I'm happy to pass the baton.

Most excellent man!
