Recently, ESPN has organized a group of experts to make a series of predictions on the regular season results of the league teams in the new season. Among them, the Cavaliers ranked first in the regular season, with 59 wins and 23 losses, while the defending champion Thunder ranked first in the regular season, with 64 wins and 18 losses.

The Western Conference entered the top six rankings after the regular season. The teams with the ability to compete for the championship are the Thunder, Rockets, Nuggets, Timberwolves, Clippers, and Lakers.

The ranking forecast is not much different from the Western Conference rankings after the end of last season's regular season. Five of the teams ranked in the top six offseason have made some reinforcements or reduced burdens. The Warriors fell into the play-off ranks in this prediction and ranked seventh. Although the Mavericks have joined the draft No. 1 pick Flag, it is still unknown whether Irving can play. The same physical condition of the Thick Brow is also an unknown that media people worry, so the Mavericks rank seventh in this ranking.

This forecast is that the Eastern Conference will enter the top six rankings after the end of the regular season. The teams with the ability to compete for the championship are the Cavaliers, Knicks, Magic, Hawks, Pistons, and Bucks. Due to the loss of burden and Tatum's injury in the offseason, they also fell out of the championship and fell into the playoffs in this prediction, ranking seventh in the Eastern Conference. After the Bucks traded Lillard, their ranking has reached sixth. Last season's regular season record was 48 wins and 34 losses, and they directly advanced to the playoffs. This time, their regular season record was 46 wins and 36 losses. The Pacers are more serious. The team of experts predicts that they will have a record of 39 wins and 43 losses in the new season, ranking tenth in the East, mainly due to Halliburton's injury and Turner's departure. Last season, the Pacers ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference with a record of 50 wins and 32 losses, with a winning rate of 61% in the regular season. They passed the playoffs and finally advanced to the finals.

The bottom five teams in the Eastern Conference are the Bulls 36 wins and 46 losses, the Raptors 33 wins and 49 losses, the Hornets 26 wins and 56 losses, the Nets 23 wins and 59 losses, and the Wizards 20 wins and 62 losses.

The five teams at the bottom in the West are the Trail Blazers 39 wins and 43 losses, the Kings 37 wins and 45 losses, the Suns 30 wins and 52 losses, the Pelicans 26 wins and 56 losses, and the Jazz 19 wins and 63 losses.
