    Notice at how the best teams are the bottom. This means nothing at all.

    It is pre-season means absolutely nothing. All I want to know is if our offensive efficiency will cary over to the regular season. Last two full seasons pre-season offense carried over to the regular season more so than defense. The offense was 12th last season I believe. If it can be close to the same or even better (with a young roster) that would be huge. McHale's system is really good.

    Does that mean all the talks about Lin means nothing at all too?

    And the Lakers will surprise everyone by competing for lottery picks next year.

    Interesting look at preseason->regular season correlation by 82games. Not the most in-depth research to be sure. But there does seem to some(.69 correlation is hardly significant) indication that a good pre-season can somewhat predict regular season success for bad teams. And despite the Rockets being a .500 team last season, we can all agree that the talent coming in is a bad team. And our incoming rookies, picks 12, 16, and 18, is closer to a team with a 6-10 pick rather than a .500 team.

    FWIW, at the end of the article it listed 3 teams that played well that preseason: Raptors, Knicks, and Hawks. They won 47, 33, and 30 respectively during the regular season. I believe our over/under is 30 1/2. So perhaps a good pre-season may indicate slight overachivement?

    Great, that means our starting 5 are much better than other team´s bench and DLeague players. :rolleyes:

    We always have a good summer league and preseason almost every year. It means the giants are still asleep.

    #1 summer league
    #2 preseason
    #3 regular season, surely.

    Logic: I'm doing it wrong.

    Lakers are dead last. LOL. I predict we face Miami in the finals, and White will own Lebron. Mark it!

    Morey has set a high standard and a pattern of success with this new team. If we don't win this year I think he and Les need to have a serious talk about his job performance. Coach McHale should have the same treatment as well.

    No, it does not.

    Preseason only means nothing if you do well.
