With the 2024/25 NBA regular season set to tip off next month, we’re getting serious about predictions for the upcoming campaign and continuing an annual Hoops Rumors tradition.
With the help of the lines from a series of sports betting sites – including Bovada and BetOnline – we’re running through the predicted win totals for each of the NBA’s 30 teams, by division. In a series of team-by-team polls, you’ll get the chance to weigh in on whether you think those forecasts are too optimistic or too pessimistic.
In 2023/24, our voters went 16-14 on their over/under picks. Can you top that in ’24/25?
We’ll begin our series today with the Atlantic Division…

76ers record 54-28
Let’s look at in this way
1
76ers trade Harden/Harris for George/C Martin
2
Trade Melton/Niang/Tucker for Oubre, Lowry, E Gordon
Maxey is better. Embiid’s body is older.
Can 76ers win 53 wins this season?
If no injuries then yes..
They should have an over/under for amount of injuries the team will get.
On paper they are looking good
