im not tryin to knock the warroirs, but i dont think they can stand a chance in the west.

 

 

Looks like they been doing well for themselves, all those teams are seperated by about 3 games. There record speaks for itself.

 

Pistons couldnt hang in the west either. vs east 27-6 vs west 12-7

 

Pistons are balling right now. but the east is just easier.

The Media Loves the East these are marc Steins Rankings right now. Know way two eastern teams should be 1 & 2. Thats cause they too lazy to stay up late and watch those late night games.

 

 

1 (1) Pistons 37-13 With Commissioner Stern, of all people, naming Sheed as KG's All-Star replacement, we gave deep thought to dropping the Pistons in the midst of an eight-game win streak just to make sure they still feel disrespected.

 

2 (2) Celtics 39-9 The Celts can't feel too solid until they know exactly when KG will be back, but fair is fair: Boston probably deserves co-No. 1 status after following up their Dallas win without KG by beating the Spurs without him, too.

 

3 (4) Lakers 33-17 At 5-1 since the big trade and with Kobe clearly energized by the blockbuster move he's been waiting for, there's only one complaint in Lakerland: Pau won't make his home debut until after the All-Star break.

 

4 (5) Jazz 33-19 Our bad: Korver says that the endless comparisons to Ashton Kutcher are "getting old." Guess we can't argue that, after a 17-3 start to life in Salt Lake City, Korver is rightly prouder to be compared to Jeff Hornacek.

 

5 (3) Hornets 34-15 So they've wobbled a bit since that fairy-tale promotion to No. 1. The Hornets, however, still lead the mighty Southwest and are on pace to finish 57-25, which would exceed the previous franchise record for wins (54).

 

6 (6) Suns 36-15 Excellent point by Suns-ex Jalen Rose on Sunday night's NBA Fastbreak: Shaq gives Phoenix something it was sorely lacking and something that hasn't been mentioned much. Championship experience, namely.

 

7 (8) Mavericks 34-16 The Mavs are watching rivals wheel and deal and possibly thinking that it's best to rely on continuity to counter everyone else's big changes. The committee (of one) will continue to dismiss that thinking as flawed.

 

8 (7) Spurs 32-17 Even at a mere 4-3 on their famed "rodeo" trip and even with Parker out indefinitely, San Antonio hasn't fallen as far as it seems. Look at how many teams are making moves (Shaq, Gasol, Webber) to match up with Duncan.

 

9 (12) Rockets 30-20 Don't ask us to explain why a 10-1 surge since T-Mac came back hasn't lifted Houston any higher than a tie for the West's final playoff spot. This stretch has sure hushed all that T-Mac trade talk, though.

 

10 (9) Warriors 30-20 Losing at home to Chicago in Webber's debut, after a five-day break, was even worse than the recent Minnesota loss. We repeat: The standings say Golden State, even on its 49-win pace, can't afford any let-ups.
