3) Toronto Raptors - 49.5
4) Detroit Pistons - 45.5
T5) Atlanta Hawks - 43.5
T5) Indiana Pacers - 43.5
7) Washington Wizards - 42.5
T8) Charlotte Hornets - 39.5

WESTERN CONFERENCE
1) Golden State Warriors - 66.5
2) San Antonio Spurs - 56.5
3) Los Angeles Clippers - 53.5
4) Utah Jazz - 47.5
5) Portland Trail Blazers - 46.5

The biggest takeaway from this release is that the Warriors are expected to win 10 more games than the Cavs this season - in fact, the Cavs are expected to win the same amount of games as the Spurs. Brooklyn is projected to lose the most games, while the 76ers are expected to nearly triple their win total from last season.
Another huge surprise is the Utah Jazz, who are projected to finish fourth in the West this season after missing the playoffs each of the last four seasons.
The regular season opens on October 25 with three games - New York at Cleveland, Utah at Portland and San Antonio at Golden State.
