I think its a good rank this week. the T-Wolves got power slammed by their only true test of the week (Nets). You beat a playoff contender, but not that great of a team (the Raptors) and you beat a team that more than likely will be one of the worse teams in the NBA this year (the Bucks). Your offense look bad in two out of the 3 games. But your record is still good but right now you guys dont look as good chemistry wise as top teams like Nets, Lakers so you desevre to fall down one spot. You guys will move up again this week you have the Jazz tonight your offense should look good.

 

I think it's better than what we should have got. I was thinking around 6 or 7. We almost let the Bucks come back, lost big time to the Nets, and we played good against the Raptors, mainly because of our defense.

 

I agree, of all the 5 top teams in the West, we seem to be having the slowest start...

Ouch! Fell 4 places in 1 week? That sucks. I think we are better than that, top 7 at least.

 

Right here, NBA knows where we should be: http://www.nba.com/features/rankings_index.html
