    It's really not worth reading. Those are the worst power rankings by far. And given that they are power rankings - after one week of play - that's saying a lot.

    His comment there completely destroys his credibility.

    Also, he has the Lakers at #4. LOL. Ahead of the Mavs, Rockets and Hornets.

    We should merge all the power ranking threads. No need for a new thread every time one of these stupid power rankings come out, all they tell us is who the author thinks is the best based on looking at some box scores every day.

    Actually the ranking is from Dime Magazine, which is not worth a dime.

    Dime is a streetball (sorta "ghetto") magazine that has since inception featured Allen Iverson 4 times on its covers but not once Duncan, Nowitzki, Nash, or Yao, what do you expect its worth?

    Their comment is laughable:

    "If there's anyone out there who still thinks Yao is the most important player on this team, obviously you haven't watched any of Houston's games. This is 100 percent T-Mac's show."

    ...and obviously they didn't watch last night's game in which the champions came to our house, T-Mac had an off night (4-14 shooting) and we won anyway.

    This isn't Yao's team. This isn't T-mac's team. This is the Rockets team. I just don't understand the media's obsession with sayin "this is ___'s team". That's just stupid.

    Not really. Check this:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dime_Magazine

    (near the bottom of the page it has the front cover listing)

    you don't find Francis' name.

    Wow, that's one of the worst rankings I've ever seen. Phoenix at #9? Lakers #4? And I'm sure the Celtics will be pretty good, but I'd wait longer than a week before anointing them the 2nd best team in the league.
