Who will have a worse record than the Warriors?

I have been pushing the idea of the Jazz giving as many minutes as possible to the rookie and sophomore players on the team. I have been encouraged by the things that I have been hearing about Bell, Jefferson and Miles. It remains to be seen if it will actually help or not but it sounds good so far.

With that being said I wanted to get peoples ideas on teams that will finish with a worse record than the Warriors.

Who you got?
 
Here are my teams that I can almost guarantee will finish with a record below the Warriors, in no particular order:

Minnesota
Phoenix
Bobcats
Cavaliers
Raptors

Possible, depending on trades, FA pick ups, etc

Rockets
Jazz
Magic
Hornets

Not sure about their team:

Kings
76ers
Nuggets
 
In a dream scenario the Jazz would give the young guys playing time and they still make the playoffs and the Warriors finish 22nd at the end of the year.
 
Can we get a Warriors watch thread going with an explanation of the pick they owe us? It's something like 6th or lower protected right?

There's no telling how GS will do until after the dust from this player swapping/free agency circus settles. But they've missed out on Chandler and Paul so far. They might get Deandre Jordan but it looks like the Clips will match.

I'm just hoping their horrible offseason continues ---> hiring Jackson and drafting Klay Thompson. Ouch!

I think Minni will be better than people are expecting, and I think Denver will be horrible this year if things pan out for them the way I think they will. Too many FA's on the way out and Ty can only do so much for that group.

Top 7 protected for 2012 and 2013. Top 6 protected in 2014. If we don't qualify for it in 2014 then we get the Warriors' 2nd rounder in 2014 and 2016. I think those were the stipulations. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if Minnesota was better than us. Adelman should help them compete. Also wouldn't be surprised if Denver and Portland completely suck. So much disarray on both teams.

This will be truly be a weird year as I feel like some teams are about to rise from the depths, and others are on the verge of sinking to the bottom. I feel like this year a lot of teams will be tied at the middle.
 
Almost certainly going to have a worse record than Golden State:

Cleveland
Charlotte
Minnesota
Detroit (not sure why you all are forgetting them)
Toronto

Then it's really hard to say about anyone else, including the Jazz. If I had to guess, I would say we end up with a pick between 9 and 13 from GS.
