I can't find a loss on our schedule. So its us, then the Lakers, then everyone else.

I was curious what I put here. Huh. Looks like I probably messed up the Hornets, Portland and Memphis.

Right now it looks like it could be more like:

1. LAL 60
2. SAS 55
3. DAL 55
4. UTA 47
5. NOH 45
6. OKC 45
7. HOU 42
8. POR 40
9. DEN 40
10. PHO 35
11. GSW 28
12. LAC 25
13. MEM 24
14. MIN 22
15. SAC 18

...but the real difference, I think, is the number of wins. Remember last year, how many 50 game winners there were in the West? I just don't see that again this year.

How do you think you did?

I didn't do the whole standings, but I predicted 20-25 wins for us pre-season and I'd stand by that.
