    pretty simple how they ordered them. They put them in order by win streak, +/- a spot if they are on a win/losing streak. Must be an intern.

    Leave the intern alone, lets not distract her from the most important part any interns job description. Having sex with nba.com employees in the hope of gainful employment.

    Judging by their comments, it seems like they base their rankings in large part on the teams' upcoming schedules. That's pretty dumb IMO.

    Gosh, I hate to say it but I think we are exactly where we should be. There's no disrespect here. Not one iota of disrespect.

    Being 7th in the league is no big deal. We're still what, 5th in the West right now? That's better than we were placed in 1995.

    Plus, and the ranking failed to mention this, we may not have Juwan Howard back before the postseason (or is he out for the whole year; I've heard/read different things).

    I am proud of where we are. Our obstacle to the Finals is San Antonio. If S.A. is healthy, we're gonna have our hands full even if Juwan is back. But if we play right, we can beat anybody.

    Don't foget how good the top three teams in the East are right now. Detroit, Miami and even Boston are playing very well right now. With that said, we can make the case for the sixth - tops 5th - best team in the league, but the difference between 7 and those figures is too much a matter of pure opinion to be worried about anyway.

    Chill out. Watch the games. And make Duncan voodoo dolls.

    I use this BBS for any NBA related news. Espn and other sports networks are just too biased when it comes to Rockets. :p

    Man, what a slap in the face.

    I guess I just don't understand what WEEKLY RANKING is intended to show.
