link The Rockets are ranked at 4th, which is just. However, ranking the Celtics at 2nd is premature as the big three haven't even played a game together yet. I would rank the Mavericks above them and the Pistons based on their past success.
Well, the new-look Rockets haven't played any games together either. This is why they're called pre-season rankings.
Sure, the Mavs and their playoff collapse was monumental but dropping them down to 6th overall is unreasonable.
switch the mavs and celts and ill agree with the Top 10. Sonics are ranked a bit high...having durant doesnt make them better than 8 other teams
