@afunkydiabetic. did you see the raptors schedule? they could be 2 wins 12 losses in first 14 games and be doing draft analysis mid november and bottoming out. go look at the raptors schedule at start of season or even 1st half, absolutely brutal.
Nah, man. It's called being reasonable. Having hot takes just to have them is silly. Also, I guarantee you Andy Bailey actually did some math to get the right number of total wins for the league. Fans don't do that. Even Funky was picking over for most teams.
@@Jacob-gm4hq nah I mean as in most teams just have the exact same record as last year or atleast by a few games. That basically never happens in the real world
@@rome8180 so your telling me it’s fair to think the Knicks are going to be worse after getting bridges and having Randle back. The kings are going to be worse after getting Derozen and losing nobody. And the mavs will hardly be better than last year even after upgrading a team that made the finals and had a terrible start to the year and still won 50 games. No those are just bad takes. It’s not a hot take to think the Knicks will be better look at their team. If we’re being honest it’s a hotter take to say most of these teams records will remain virtually unchanged
That means he got hurt or was so bad he got benched but if they trade guys they will want him shooting poorly hogging the ball to lose as many games as possible late in the year when it is clear who else is tanking....I think the nets win 13 games so he has to average more
Fr drop the Fakers win total to 40 and give the 4 to the Kings, that sounds about right. Rest of the predictions more or less are about right otherwise
Thats the problem with predictions they seem so unlikely or likely to happen and then usually dont play out that way but most other teams made changes too tho so you cant just base it off of last season and who they added to that
Bulls fan here: I want zach and vooch to be just good enough to get traded for literally anything at the deadline, then we better be absolute bootycheeks the rest of the season, I want to be able to count the post-deadline wins on one hand
Nice joke about Sixers fans and Tobias. I’m a lifelong Sixer fan and the closest thing I’ve felt to the joy of winning a championship was this very offseason when that fraud finally got released from my basketball team. Watching him play the game of basketball truly angered me more than I can put into words
@@Biid21id have them at number two since the bench has shown to be capable of stepping up in injury situations. A luxury a lot of these teams do not have
It really is an insult Randle played 40, Mitch 30, and OG 25 and the Knicks won 50 last year. They are in another tier with boston because of their depth I see 61 games.
@@Justfrank_0 it was prolly like 6 years ago idk when but he had a period of time where he talked abt music video games basketball etc on this website he linked with his videos and it came out once a week i think and it was like 35 minutes long or so and he only had like ten episodes prolly
Charlotte is going to win a lot more games than they think. Even if Melo isn't more healthy, even though he could be, they have more talent on that team now to beat a lot of those terrible east teams
Wouldn’t be surprised if they’re around play-in tier towards end of season if Melo stays healthy. Mark Williams and Miller are good. Shame about Bridges.
Miami has been building a squad quietly Scary Terry, Jimmy, Tyler, Jamie, Jovic I'm hoping is good, Bam I mean pretty solid starting lineup with Jovic coming off the bench I think
Considering the Bucks had the season from hell with injuries, coaches, change, lacking proper training camps, etc. I think they can win well over 51 games this year
As a rockets fan funky you hit the nail on the head it really comes down to Jalen Green being consistent if he consistently we are a mid to high 40 win team and if we pull off some upsets we could possibly win 50 games. Also Sengun is already an all star level player with him if we go beyond and get to that 50 win range. He going to have to be a top 40 player in this league and I think he can do it
@@blablablaa14 Prehaps because of how loaded the West is but he improves and be a top 40 player he is an all star. He would have been an all star if he was in East last year. So yeah Sengun is an all star level player
I feel like 25 of these teams the consensus is "yeah they'll definitely hit the over" but, like, someone has to lose. All 30 teams can't hit the over lol. The West will be a bloodbath and wouldn't be shocked if a lot of the mid-40 win teams don't even clear 38
A “successful” season for the Pistons is interesting. On one hand, for the players, seeing more wins would be good for development, chemistry, and things like that. On the other hand, they’re also not good enough yet to compete for a playoff spot, so winning more games theoretically gives them a worse pick in the draft. However, with their draft history, the Pistons getting a lower lotto pick (8-14) could also work in their favor, meaning that it may force them to rely less on talent and find a player with high upside that actually fits the needs of the roster. So I think winning more than 25 games is a huge success, but they don’t wanna have like 35, because that most likely puts them outside that top 8-9. If they win less than 20 games though, that’s also a huge failure without showing any tangible on court improvements from a team perspective and not individually
At this point it doesn't even matter. He's 30 years old with a long history of leg injuries. It's a matter of when rather than if. At 7'2+ guys just don't last in the NBA. Hopefully Wemby can buck that trend.
@@3perry356 I mean they not half as lethal on the three, not nearly as free flowing in the half court, not much action happening. Not nearly enough ball rotation. Not switchable enough on defense. By all accounts, no it don't give me that feeling but I do like what's happening at OKC, I do think they're gonna win 60 games.
While the nuggets did lose KCP the rest of the starting lineup will be fine because of Jokic, Murray, & MPJ. They added Russ to help Murray and Dario Šarić for Jokic so when those guys go to the bench you could have a line up of: Russ, MPJ, Peyton Watson, Dario, & Gordon (Maybe Čančar for more spacing)
Give me over on the Knicks and under on the Nuggets. Those two felt the most "off" to me of any of the predictions. I'd have the Knicks winning 55 and the Nuggets winning 51. I understand the concerns about the center spot for the Knicks, but are you telling me they can't play Randle at center some? Brunson, Bridges, OG, Hart, Randle would still be good defensively, and the rebounding would be fine because Hart and Randle are both great rebounders for their position. As for the Nuggets, the loss of KCP plus what we've seen from Murray has me very concerned. Even if Murray is great, there are still clear issues. Losing KCP means a bench player has to start, which makes their depth, which already sucked, even worse. Also, their 3pt volume was already near the bottom of the league. And now you remove their third best 3pt shooter and replace him with Christian Braun?
While the Celtics at 56-26 seems odd after 64-18 and a championship, but that still gives them the best record in the B-R 2024-25 season. They seem to have gone very conservative on the likely and potential top teams, with Denver and OKC next at 55-27 and the Sixers second in the East at 52-30.
@@joemamaedits3396Doesn't even matter bro the Kings are a good ass team ppl just be sleeping on them. Replacing Barnes with DeRozan is a no brainer talent upgrade and don't even start with the fit bullshit. Barnes was an unproductive, garbage ass defender that could hit a couple threes a game. You know how many nights he had 2 points, 1 assist 1 rebound in 40 minutes? Could not stand him on the Kings.
As a nuggets fan, I think if we're going to win another chip we have to trust jokic and murray enough to keep the starters afloat. Then trade a guy for more depth. Unfortunately I think it would have to be mpj cause I think AG Is slightly harder to replace, so trade mpj for reliable shooters off the bench and let jokic and murray dominate. Also cautiously optimistic about russ. Think playing with jokic is his best chance of making an impact in the league
I think the only way the Knicks win less games then last year is if Brunson goes down for 30 games. They had a tough schedule to start last year and started 17 -15 before OG trade and still won 50 games. You are going have a lot of bad teams tanking for players in next year draft. Good health and they will win at least 54 -56 games I think. I don't Boston wins 60 plus this year. I think you may 3 teams over 50 wins in the East including Knicks and they will battle for 1 or 2 slot.
Being honest i can see this season having no 55+ win team with how many competitive teams that are out there, even the trash hornets can give you a hard game if LaMelo is healthy it is wild
Portland 15 wins and Wizards 20? I think Washington will move Kuzma at the deadline and lose more games as a consequence. Moreover, Jordan Poole's inefficient, volume shooting might lead them to Cooper Flagg.
I'd switch the win totals of New York and Philadelphia. I can see the Knicks making a move to acquire a backup 5. There's no way Robinson is staying healthy for the entire season. Moving Randle over to the 5 is a ridiculous idea. We’ll see.
Knicks even with Thibs injuring his entire starting 5 got to 50 wins. If mitch can play 50 games and be healthy for the playoffs, they can get 55+ wins. Though I won't be so reactionary and hate on that BR prediction, assuming they think they get destroyed by injuries again. It can happen, and Thibs is gonna play each of his starting 5 like 45 minutes a game each.
nobody on the team last year was in the top 10 in min per game, both randle and brunson averaged 35 mpg which is very normal for your star players. guys had to play a lot down the stretch because of injuries that were freak accidents such robinson landing on someones foot or randle getting undercut by someone trying to take a charge but lets just run with the narratives and not do the 5 seconds of research required to not look dumb
@anddanny2263 yep the thibs narrative is so overplayed and non credible. People just hate the Knicks cause after 20 years of dumpster fire we have a top 5 player and blowout their favorite team every night.
Which it will be. Robert is stagnant. McDaniels is unreliable, Conley is old. KAT is a 3rd option guy on a title team but Wolves don't really have a 2nd option guy. Which is a big problem considering Gobert is a statue on offense
Pacers are the most overrated team in the East. 46 wins seems high to me. I always asked the question, What team is better than them? And the list gets kinda long. Celtics, Bucks,Knicks, 76ers, Cavs,Heat, and they tie with the Magic. If you out them over the Magic there will be no complaint from me. Then you gots to include them playing West teams at home or on the road. So good luck.
@@jammer9941 last two seasons they had top 5 injuries in league went to finals without there 3rd best scoring option this is definitely a better team then it was 2 years ago when they lost to nuggets but last season Philly had 47 wins and was in play in Miami was 3 games away from being 5th seed East was very close and the only team who had more injuries than Miami last year. Was the Memphis grizzlies who were in the lottery.
Kidd does like to experiment a lot during the season. If no injuries they'll close strong but the first half of the season they'll probably go trhough a lot of rotation trying to hone in stuff.
I think there's a good chance Memphis Grizzlies are the #1 regular season team this year. Playoffs, we'll see. Ja-Bane-Smart-JJJr-Edey is a STRONG starting lineup Konchar, Aldama, Clarke, GG, Vince, D Rose. Pretty darn decent bench as well.
These fools have the Cavs under 50 wins?! Hahaha! Can't wait to watch all yall be shocked at how good the Cavs are, and pretend like no one saw it coming...
I think the lakers are worse than last year even with a potentially better coach than darvin ham. I think they’ll get around 43 wins maybe 44-45 if they’re super lucky
Boston homerism saying the celtics should win 60 knowing kp is out for a month plus and won't be 100% at first until like end of december...having the nets and raptors in division helps and the 76ers may not be healthy when they play boston helps as does playing the wiz hornets pistons hawks bulls more than the west teams get to but come on...the league at the top is better the west is better overall

ngl having mavs only 1 win from suns is terrible takes
Not really
I could honestly see OKC going for 55+ wins and then like 12 teams between 40 and 50 wins in the West, then Portland and Utah at the bottom!
How do they have the hornets at 28 wins when we upgrade the roster and have everyone back healthy
As a raptors fan ion agree, I say we go 33-49
Lakers will not have a positive win loss ratio. I’m calling it
Hot take: Bulls will trade Lonzo for a 1st rd pick at trade deadline
Its not hot, its just dumb
Is he worth a 1st with injury concerns?
2:29 I don’t think we have our picks so who cares how our record looks
Top ten protected maybe
horrible predictions by bleacher, good video
Blazer top 3 pick pls!!!
U really think heat can’t crack 48-52 wins and be 6th seed
Sure there's chance but they have only gotten 50 wins once since jimmy butler and have had averaged around 45 wins so 43-47 range feels about right.
@@jammer9941 last two seasons they had top 5 injuries in league went to finals without there 3rd best scoring option this is definitely a better team then it was 2 years ago when they lost to nuggets but last season Philly had 47 wins and was in play in Miami was 3 games away from being 5th seed East was very close and the only team who had more injuries than Miami last year. Was the Memphis grizzlies who were in the lottery.
Mavs will win at least 55 my games imo i don't know how people can see that they had made no improvement
Kidd does like to experiment a lot during the season. If no injuries they'll close strong but the first half of the season they'll probably go trhough a lot of rotation trying to hone in stuff.
Wizards will be bellow 20 wins, they're the only team to get worse in the off-season
Atlanta and Brooklyn.
I’m not mad at you but the knicks are a lot better than a 49 win team they are still going to be the second seed in the east
The league really love the Grizzlies haha
The suns at 50 wins is a joke
I think there's a good chance Memphis Grizzlies are the #1 regular season team this year. Playoffs, we'll see.
Ja-Bane-Smart-JJJr-Edey is a STRONG starting lineup
Konchar, Aldama, Clarke, GG, Vince, D Rose. Pretty darn decent bench as well.
Center position is pretty weak and smart + bane is too short on defense
Facts
@@OctoMatoebane has been an average to plus defender most of his career what are you talking about😂😂
@@EzeBall1710no he hasn't. He's just an outstanding scorer. That's what keeps him alive.
You start Vince or GG in place of smart
ya 44 is a slap in the face.......i didnt know this but derozan is an 88 on NBA 2k Fox 89 Sabonis 90 ....how only 44 wins?
These fools have the Cavs under 50 wins?! Hahaha!
Can't wait to watch all yall be shocked at how good the Cavs are, and pretend like no one saw it coming...
I think the lakers are worse than last year even with a potentially better coach than darvin ham. I think they’ll get around 43 wins maybe 44-45 if they’re super lucky
I think Dalton will surprise people. They'll be slightly better and be a first or second round exit
Celtics can win just 50 games and be at 4 seed and they would still reach at least ECF.
Hot take if healthy Lamelo has top 50 potential
That's not good enough. The goal is to win a title, not the play in tourney
@@vulcanraven9701 wdym
@@CertifiedLiar88 LaMelo being a top 50 player is a bit of Longshot but even then the hornets need a lot more talent than that.
Do bulls got their pick i would like Coop Flagg in Chicago
White boy rebuild in Chi Town
Matas Giggidy and Flagg but thats not going to happen
Boston homerism saying the celtics should win 60 knowing kp is out for a month plus and won't be 100% at first until like end of december...having the nets and raptors in division helps and the 76ers may not be healthy when they play boston helps as does playing the wiz hornets pistons hawks bulls more than the west teams get to but come on...the league at the top is better the west is better overall
one of the worst predictions by bleacher report i've seen in awhile god damn
TRE jones
The Celtics won the 23-2024 NBA Championship and they're still getting ZERO RESPECT.. 18 & counting...☘️🏆
Knicks are the 2nd best team in the East
Dallas will get to 60 if they stay healthy
Dallas isn’t winning 60 games
You all said the same thing for the Lakers after their 2023 trade deadline run. Then they fell off next season
I don't see how the warriors would have more wins than the lakers. Otherwise defent video
mavs fan here:. this list is dumb. mavs going 80-2
Celtics 61-21
I can’t wait to see how bad Luka does Edey. 😂
Why are you talking Dallas? “Wait til the finals” right?? 💀💨. We can count together again. 1-2-3-4 sweeeeeep. (You’re not even getting past the thunder yet alone the grizz, wolves or, nuggs)💀💯
