very interesting, I don't think it counts injuries in the statistics so that hurts us a little but I'm fine with a rating-system who puts us at 12 when we're also 12th in the standings. seems pretty accurate. It probably been posted in other threads, but - correct me if I'm wrong - we'd be meeting the Lakers if the playoffs started today... Do you think they're able to take us to 7?
