The 2022-23 NBA Season is upon us. After an offseason of wild trades, wilder trade demands and plenty of drama, the NBA regular season kicked off Tuesday night. Most of the other teams will begin things tonight, Game 1 of an 82-game season that most teams hope is followed by a long postseason (and the rest hope is followed by a 7’4″ Frenchman).

This may be a Cleveland Cavaliers website, but we gave you the preview for the Cavs’ season this morning. Now it’s time for the rest of the league, for a bit of light reading as you gear up for tonight’s games. What might happen around the association?

The 2022-23 NBA Season is now here, and we have the full preview you’ve been looking for. Standings, Awards and the Playoff Results are all here for you

We’ll lay out the record and final rankings for every team in the league, from the tanking West to the behemoths at the top of the East. Then we’ll highlight predictions for every major award, MVP to All-Rookie teams. Finally, how will the playoffs shake out? Will someone bump the Warriors off of their throne?

This is going to be a quick overview; feel free to hit us up to go more in depth. The goal was accurate predictions, so the wins and losses add up to 1,230 and the awards are who we think will win, not who should win – often different things. Without further ago, the Eastern Conference standings.
