    ESPN Power Rankings

    I think this is BS. How are teams like New Orleans and Utah end up at 2 and 3which IMO is based on potential when we're down at 26th? I mean we got beat by San Antonio and New Jersey, two strong teams but we showed a ton of potential. I dunno about this.

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are ahead of the Celtics.

    If this trend continues they'll be using our sigs in no time. I don't want to use an ugly celtics sig.

    Where should we be, what number?

    As well what number are teams ranked with identical records to ours?

    Interesting enough I think Phili has a 3-0 record and isn't ranked in the top 10.

    26 is to low..they were 21 lastweek and after two losses vs top 10 teams we're pushed down 5 whole spots?

    Even the team we beat ends up higher ranked than us.

    No reason we shouldnt be ahead of at least the Bobcats and Blazers

    Exactly

    I don't get why people get so angry about nothing? Usually the rankings of the supposed bottom teams aren't greatly thought out. It doesn't matter to the guy how he ranks Charlotte, Toronto and Portland, they're all just down there. When we win some games and we aren't getting ranked high, we can complain, but wanting to be the best of the worst is something we don't need to care about in power rankings.
