We doing the win total predictions for each team this year or no? I haven't seen any thread or anything so far this season and it's getting pretty close to opening day. I always enjoy doing it, but I know it is alot of hard work keeping up with it and updating it, so I can completely understand if we decide not to do it this season.

Yeah, happy to run it again this year. I keep telling myself every year that I'll write a fancy program to do all the calculations for me, but I never quite get round to it. Rules are:
- Submit a prediction for the final win total of every team in the league.
- There are 1230 games in an NBA season, so the total number of wins across all your teams must add up to 1230 for your prediction to be valid.
- At the end of the year, you score one point for every win your prediction is off by for each team. Lowest total score wins.
- In each division, you designate one team as your 'banker' team. That team will score you double points, so choose carefully!
Deadline for predictions is the tip-off of the regular season.
To make it easier to keep track of everyone's predictions, please order your predictions by conference and then alphabetical order of city within that conference. Highlight the team you want to score double points for in bold, eg:
ATLANTIC:
Boston Celtics: xx wins
Brooklyn Nets: xx wins
New York Knicks: xx wins
Philadelphia 76ers: xx wins
Toronto Raptors: xx wins
I'll submit my own predictions at some point over the next few days - I encourage you all to do the same! Will periodically post updates throughout the season.
Have fun!

I'm going to save them all off at the point entries close - feel free to make adjustments to your predictions up until that point. Make sure they sum to 1230 though! At the moment I have entries from:
Sir Thursday (me!)
Dan G
thejohnnygold
2016Champions -> Currently your predictions add up to 1231, please fix this.
Steven -> Currently your predictions add up to 1228, please fix this.
[Thanks for checking Dan G!]
There's still time to put in a prediction if you haven't already! Deadline for new entries is 8PM ET when the first games tip-off. If you've put in an entry by then but it doesn't quite add up to 1230, fear not! You can have a little more time to make adjustments so it adds up.
