    The Lakers have won 6 of their last 7 games, have beaten Phoenix twice head to head, and are ranked 6 positions lower 🤔🤔🤯

    Admittedly I can’t get past the paywall, but it seems premature to be putting the Bucks #1. I imagine this is one of those lists where they weigh recent results pretty heavily, so that Charlotte loss for Boston and the recent Murray-less struggles for Denver were big reasons. Still not sure if they deserve to be above Philly either though.

    Regardless, glad to see Milwaukee seemingly starting to put it together at least though. I’d agree with top 5 for sure.

    Poor Wemby ending up in a team with no pg… the guy won so much, he took a team not supposed to make the playoff to the finals and the year after he joins the best league in the world to end up with a guy having no will and absolutely no clue on how to play point guard. He joins the youngest team and is coached by pop who for the moment just let them figure out and doesn’t draw plays for what should be the first option. I hope he’s doing that to know who to trade next year.

    The Nuggets have the lowest free-throw accuracy and free-throw rate in the league. Improve those?

    I knew that they had the lowest rate since Nugget fans keep posting about that stat but the lowest accuracy too?

    That’s interesting. Probably not significant but interesting nonetheless.

    These lists obviously don’t matter but I don’t see how Celtics aren’t #1 for power rankings. I think it should go Celtics then Twolves and then in any order 76ers nuggets bucks. Would be fine with nuggets to be ranked low cause we really do struggle without Murray

      I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think you’re right. We had one loss to phoenix with a severe rest advantage but have taken care of business otherwise. Celtics lost to the hornets last week.
