Just an update for you guys, just incase you guys didn't see it.http://www.nba.com/powerrankings/Top 5:1. Dallas (1) 29-8 The Mavs are 21-3 this season when Josh Howard scores at least 15 points, as he has for the last 16 straight games.2. Phoenix (2) 26-8 With Yao likely shelved until after the All-Star Game, could Amare get the starting nod? His 17.6 ppg ranks second behind Yao among all West centers.3 Utah (3) 24-11 Jazz is 4-0 at home and 7-5 on the road in back-to-back sets. Utah plays every Friday and Saturday the rest of this month -- two at home, four roadies.4. San Antonio (4) 26-11 The Spurs and Boston are the only teams with a better record on the road than at home. San Antonio welcomes the Wizards and Lakers this week.5. Houston (9) 23-13 Raise your hand if you really believed the Rockets would go 7-2 since Yao went down ? Anybody? :happy0144:
Lakers move down to 8...ugh....but I guess we deserve it considering our last two losses. We are really starting to miss Lamar and Kwame.
Surprised me how the Spurs dropped to 7th in Marc Stein's power rankings over on ESPN.com. And also on Stein's rankings, the Wizards dropped down another, just because of a loss we had to Toronto. Yikes.
