We look at five NBA teams that have fallen well short of expectations so far this season

Going into each NBA season, every team as their own goals set for the up incoming year. Whether that’s making the postseason, or challenging to become title contenders. Each team has their own expectations of what they want to accomplish throughout the season.

But sometimes, things don’t always go as they planned. Some teams might expect to make the postseason but, instead, end up at the bottom of the leagues standings (I’m looking at you Dallas.)

That’s just how things go sometimes; an NBA season can be really unpredictable. You never know what to expect. I mean look at the Los Angeles Lakers; I know nobody expected them to have seven wins this early in the season.

That’s just how unpredictable a season can be. So with all that said, we’ll take a look at five teams that haven’t lived up to their own expectations yet, early in the 2016-17 season.
