NBA Season Win Total Predictions for the 2014-15 Season

These were originally made July 28, 2014. At that time Paul George had not been injured and Kevin Love was not yet traded to Cleveland (although it was looking very likely to happen).

Not counting Indiana, the predictions were off by an average of two wins. On half of the teams the predictions were one win off or right on the number.
