    Every team in that graphic, except the one just below us, has a losing record….

    This is because if you lose to teams, they then have a better record. That is why Lakers and Rockets have played the “strongest schedule. If we had lost all 3 games to Phoenix, our schedule would be considered stronger.

    That's because the season is still young and the SOS is skewed by your own record.

    The Lakers 2-9 record means their opponents have 12 more wins than the Blazer's opponents (at 8-3) just because of the records. That differential skews the rankings.

    Blazers are this high because they've played the Suns 3 times too.

    Yep. Because we’re one of the only teams to beat them, the schedule stays strong for us. I hate the SOS stat.
