    Check out Hoopsworld.

    I know that some Power Rankings have us out of the playoffs. Here's one that has us in.

    Missing half our team in a preseason game - the first preseason game after installing a new offense and a new defense, really important data point.

    I'm much more on board with this one than those that have us at 13th.

    So since this one has us in, it is more accurate than the others?

    I think we're much closer to 7th than, say, 13th (which seems to be about the mode). You?

    Yea because it means so much. Couple that with Summer League and the Suns should be a lock for the playoffs!

    I think that you could argue that since it's later it's more accurate, but of course they're all inaccurate. The point is that the opinion that we won't make the playoffs is not universal and indeed not the pervailing theory.
