Seems like way too many teams finish between seven and nine wins. Either a statistical improbability or a clever tactic to keep fans just interested enough to continue spending money.

#FakeSports results seem more staged with each passing year.

Considering that the average record for all teams is 8-8, having a bunch of teams with 7 to 9 wins is not unusual.

Perhaps it's like MLB, where there are elite teams who attempt to win a championship, and other teams which spend just enough to slip into the playoffs (and attract fans) but are not serious contenders.
