    just to add on, we had the biggest jump of any team (5 spots), rising from #13

    With coach like McHale who is all about winning, I think we are close to it.

    Yes, but we are better than the Nuggets, but worse than the Grizz.

    only teams i've feared since before the season began, heat, okc, spurs and the batum's. The clippers starters we can hang with ; it's their bench that scares the crap out of me.

    8th is about right, for what they've done in the past 30 days.

    I don't get how the Knicks are 7. They're 5-6 in their last 11 games

    Don Nelson does not give a **** about winning. Though he's not in the league anymore.

    Means nothing. It's just a group of people's opinions.

    seems about right. We will also be challenged tonight to beat the lakers, even without their big men.

    Don Nelson may not be the greatest coach of all time, but he has the most wins all time for an NBA coach. His early Bucks teams were great and his Mavericks teams were one of the top teams in the Western conference for a long time.

    I'd guess that if one did, so would the other.

    So this is what having a star is like :p.

    It feels as if it's been so long since we've had one.
