NBA Power rankings

Recommended Posts

It's from opening day, but I just now saw it and didn't see it posted anywhere:

 

1. San Antonio

2. Dallas

3. LA Lakers

4. Sacramento

5. Minnesota

6. New Jersey

7. Detroit

8. Indiana

9. Phoenix

10. Philadelphia

11. Portland

12. New Orleans

13. Houston

14. Orlando

15. Boston

16. Chicago

17. Seattle

18. Golden State

19. New York

20. Memphis

21. Cleveland

22. Toronto

23. Denver

24. Washington

25. LA Clippers

26. Miami

27. Atlanta

28. Utah

29. Milwaukee

 

That's right...the Pacers lost their home opener to the last team in the power rankings., then went to OT with the third-to-last. Not that I agree with half of this, just saying.

 

*is slightly embarassed*

 

I'll think about it, and provide my OWN power rankings later.

How the hell do you have Chicago ahead of the Celtics?

 

Paul Pierce > Any Chicago Bull

And Tracy McGrady > Any Detroit Piston, too.

 

Did that get him past the first round of the playoffs?

 

Although if you're going to go that route:

 

Eddy Curry, Tyson Chandler, Jalen Rose, Jamal Crawford, Scottie Pippen, or Marcus Fizer > any Boston Celtic other than Paul Pierce

 

Besides, this is just an outlook before any games have been played. I can (and probably will, honestly) change my mind after seeing both teams play a couple months.

Actually I think Ben Wallace is a better player than McGrady. I mean the man averages double figures in points and rebounds while getting about 5 or 6 blocks per too. Personal opinion I suppose

 

Scottie Pippen isn't worth shit anymore. Jalen Rose is a cancer to team chemistry, and Jamal Crawford IMHO is still unproven.

 

Tyson Chandler is their only real star(seeing as how Jay Williams will most likely be released because riding a motorcycle was a violation of his contract...that is if he can even play ever again)

 

Paul Pierce, Raef Lafrentz, and Vin Baker who has lost about 30lbs and redevoted himself to the game are better than any 3 players the Bulls could throw out

Vin Baker doesn't suck for a week and its a renaissance!

 

No objections to the Sixers in either ranking. I think that they've got a better team than people realize, but its up to them to prove it.

I'm not trying to take a thing away from T-Mac. I mean he's an incredible player and a great shooter. But Wallace overall is a stronger player and now that he's moved to the PF position with Darco there he'll be much tougher. If there's a player I want with the ball in the last possesion T-Mac's name would be up there. If there's a player I want in there all 48min cause he brings alot to the table its Wallace

Maybe i'm in the minority(as usual) here but I think Ben Wallace is the best player in the NBA right now. He learned how to get the ball in the basket now, along with ungodly Rodman-like rebounding, and GREAT blocking and stealing. He is the complete package.
