PostPosted: Wed Aug 24, 2016 1:23 pm    Post subject: ESPN Projected 2016-17 records and standings for every NBA team (Lakers last)

Lakers projected wins: 24.3 (last)
Sixers projected wins: 24.5

Despite their offseason additions of No. 2 pick Brandon Ingram and veterans Luol Deng and Timofey Mozgov, RPM has the Lakers with the league's fewest projected wins.

Time to overcome the odds.

And if that doesn't work, hope the lottery odds work in our favor.

I think we win more games. While the PO's are out of reach, firing Byron and playing a modern version of basketball will help.

How much does the ESPN prediction re: the 76ers rely on Embiid being healthy?

I don't see us losing more games than the Nets. That team only has 2-3 legit NBA players

Extra motivation for our guys and the coaching staff to put in work and prove people wring. I'm good with it.

I went back as far as ESPN's standings lists would go (2003) and didn't find a single 24 win team that also held the worst record in the league. Then I remembered that this is a stupid and meaningless projection.

I hope we beat our ESPN win projection this time around.
RPM rankings don't factor in coaching.
If we only win 24 games, I probably wont be happy with the direction of our franchise next offseason.

I am going out on a limb here and say the team wins 32+ games. I really think they will surprise people.

ESPN with another baseless projection.

Im willing to bet 100$ that the team wins around 35-40 wins and 45-50 if everything clicks.
