    Rockets

    Can Chris Paul and James Harden share the ball enough for this to work? Will Paul adapt and embrace Mike D'Antoni's style, central to Houston's success but does not mesh with CP3's instincts? Will the depth they traded (or may still trade if they land Carmelo Anthony) weaken them overall? We don't know the answers to those questions, but landing Chris Paul -- at the very least -- puts them ahead of the Celtics.​

    We are are at best 3 preseason even with melo

    Gsw and Cleveland because James and being in east

    It's not hard to see them putting us below the spurs until we prove it on the court

    I've been saying the spurs we're on downturn for at least 5-6 years lol ... but they never slow down

    4 sounds about right. Spurs have earned a preseason ranking ahead of us, all things considered. We're better on paper, but we have to go and show it.

    Those rankings based on what they saw on paper prior to the season ..... not to be taken seriously.

    Teams overachieve or underachieve all the time - or they play up to their standard.

    Power rankings at this point have no meaning. Our team even with Melo could be a repeat of the Big 3 team in the 90s.

    Lmao larriors are not winning 70 games with fragile Steven and injury prone gayd.

    A lot of people talk about how the larriors have chemistry but you can see win they fraudulently won the championship last season the look on their face they knew they really didn't win. Steven hates gayd because the spotlight is on him. Can't wait to see this team crumble down
