Yet another prediction thread

Make 2 predictions -

The Lakers will win < 20 or >= 20

The Heat will win 0-49 or > 50.

I think the Lakers will win at least 20 games, but barely.
I think the Heat will win less than 50 games, but come close.

I'd lean towards putting the Lakers over/under closer to 30, and that's taking into account the Randle injury. I just think Kobe will keep them in a lot of games, and they still have a nice trade chip in Nash's expiring. Depending on who they get, they could still be somewhat respectable.

I have Miami at around .500, mostly because of their lack of depth and what I predict will be a reliance on jumpshots. Still, Wade is likely to have a heroic season IMO, even if it costs him games in future years. So I'm seeing 42-44 wins, but then possibly getting a first round playoff upset due to their experience.

I have the Lakers under 30- and their pick is top 5 protected so maybe they go the other way and rest guys like Kobe in order to keep their draft pick.

I have the Warriors over 52 wins
I have the Rockets over 50 wins
I have the Knicks under 41 wins.

But it doesn't matter what I think, that's why we watch the games.

LAL > 20 W
MIA < 50 W

The Lakers look terrible after two games.

Their next two losses are going to come against the Clippers and the Golden State Warriors.

Lakers will be lucky to win 20.

I don't see Miami winning 50. Maybe 47 or so tops.

Wow, my Lakers over/under should have been closer 10. Yikes!
