'NBA Live 07:' The Simulated Season

For: IGN

With the NBA season about to tip-off, EA Sports has used the 'NBA Live 07' simulation engine to predict not only the winners of every game, but the playoffs, and some of the league leaders as well.

And good news for Knicks fans, the team only wins 19 games. Why is that good? There's no way Isiah keeps his job (even as a polygon) if the team performs this poorly another year.

Time to celebrate the results...
