Team Rank Record Synopsis
1. 7-1 Sure the Lakers stumbled against the Pistons, but when you are beating opponents by an average of 21 ppg you probably shouldn't lose at home.
3. 8-2 LeBron has scored over 40 points in 3 out of their last 5
games, but the bigger story is the play of Mo Williams.
Batman may finally have a Robin in Cleveland.
4. 7-3 A.I seems to to be fitting in just fine after that big win in LA
on Friday. If Detroit can somehow duplicate that scoring
balance; they will be tough to beat come June.

5. 6-3 Remember that hot 6-0 start that had Atlanta thinking playoffs
again? Well 3 losses later the hawks have landed after the
Nets gave them 2 L's out of the 3. Hurry back Josh Smith.
6. 8-3 Phoenix would be higher on this list if they could just be more
consistent. After an ugly loss to the Rockets, then a Huge win
over the Pistons; you never know which team is going to show
up.

7. 5-4 The Hornets are really relying on CP3 to go for 20-10 every
night. The bench is a major concern for this team; but on the
bright side the James Posey trade is working out..except for that
3 Kobe hit to seal the Laker win. (Ouch)

8. 6-4 With Mr. Big Shot in town Melo is free to take any shot he
wants, and the team looks like they are playing a little bit of
Defense. Big win in Boston should stamp the approval for the
A.I Chauncey switch.

offensive end. Theres still no defense in New York but if they keep
playing hard the playoffs could be back in the Big Apple.
10. 6-4 The Jazz just seem to keep getting it done even when they didn't
have D-Will for the majority of the season thus far. Quality minutes
from the bench have kept this team afloat; particularly Paul Milsap
and Ronnie Brewer.

11. 7-3 Dwight Howard may have to be Superman the entire season
(30pts, 19bds, 10blks) as he was the other night. Lack of
firepower in the back court may hurt them down the stretch. Hedo
and Rashard Lewis are both playing well though.

12. 6-4 Oden could be finding his footing 10 games into the season, but
they play of Rudy Fernandez has people talking about Rookie of
the Year. This Blazer team is deep and should make the playoffs if
Roy continues to play like an All-Star.

13. 5-4 Bosh and O'neal seem to be fitting together perfectly which bodes
well for the maturation of this team. Now only if Bargnani can live
up to the hype of being the #1 overall pick.

14. 4-5 For a minute there I thought the Spurs looked old and washed up,
then the young guys started earning their paychecks. But with
Parker out for 2 weeks they will continue to hover around .500.

15. 6-4 Yes they are leading in their division, so one may ask why they are
ranked lower than the Spurs and the Hornets? I'm just not sold on
this team yet, there doesn't seem to be enough balls to go around
and Yao slows the team down when they are built to run.

16. 5-5 Boy do they ever miss Shaq in the paint after Portland killed them
on the glass last week. I don't think Marion is the answer, so look
for the next big trade to involve him for some front court help.
Then the playoffs could be a strong consideration.

17. 4-6 Can you believe Golden State is 2 games under .500 without Monta
Ellis? Captain Jack is living up to his nickname, while Al Harrington
wants out as fast as possible. Once he is traded and Ellis comes
back they may make a late season run..again.

18. 4-5 Vince and Devin Harris took apart the once unbeaten Hawks not
once but twice in the same week. They are a matchup nightmare,
especially when Yi hits 5 three pointers in 1 night.

19. 5-5 Imagine you drove an old car that was rusty but got you from point A
to B then you get a shiny new car and have no idea how to drive.
That sums up the Sixers, who are still learning how to use Elton Brand
while remaining true to pushing the ball up the court. Hope they figure it
out soon, the East is no slouch this year.

20. 5-5 Rose is starting to figure it out, but when the jump shots aren't falling
this team is horrible to watch. Gordon and Deng are not the players
of the future that the Bulls thought they were, so look for someone to
go via trade in order to address the needs in the front court.

21. 5-6 Its hard to figure the Bucks out, especially since Redd is still injured.
Once he gets back we will finally see what this team is made of.
Kudos to Scott Skiles for getting the most out of this rag-tag group
while Michael Redd heals up.

Miller some of the youngsters will have to now sit. 1 bright spot is the
play of Bobby Brown(not that 1)who seems like he will be around
the league for quite a while...cant say the same for Reggie Theus.
23. 3-6 MJ wants to buy the team from Bob Johnson, but what he needs to
do is go buy a scorer who he can pair up with Plastic Man 2 Gerald
Wallace.
24. 3-7 Who knew Dallas would struggle this bad..I DID! Avery Johnson
was wrongfully ran out of town leaving Rick Carlisle to sort out the
mess. Out of there 3 wins 2 came in Overtime, not sure this team has
an identity.

25. 4-5 The Pacers play hard every night, and that can't be said for every
team. Give them credit for beating the C's first, but they wont beat
too many teams with the lack of fire/star power in the starting lineup.

26. 1-8 Ok, so 2 of their 8 losses came to the Lakers who started out red
hot, but home losses to the Warriors and the Kings aren't acceptable.
I wonder if Baron is re-thinking his decision to move back home?
27. 1-6 Gilbert Arenas is one of my favorite players, but when he comes
back he will not be enough to bring the Wizards out of the Eastern
Conference cellar .

28. 3-7 Memphis has to love what they are getting out of rookie sensations
O.J Mayo and Marc Gasol. They have a solid foundation with
Conley and Gay; and will be very competitive in the future. Love how
they competed with the Suns on the road.

29. 1-8 The clock has to be ticking on Randy Wittman if some improvement
is not made. Oh, and it doesn't help that out of the top 5 rookies
Love is having the smallest impact. The biggest stat that jumps out is
the 0-6 record on the road.
