I posted my player rankings generated predictions. I was messing around with the awesome website http://www.playoffpredictors.com, and came up with the following NBA predictions with records.
Same NBA Finals result, 76ers over Nuggets.
I expect teams to either battle for the playoffs or tank until they cannot tank anymore. I do not see any 60 win teams, a bunch of 47-57 win teams, a couple hovering around .500, and the rest with wins in the teens or early 20’s. Call it the Victor Wembanyama effect.
