    By stats I was referring to this.

    My point (while not well written at all) was that their average margin in the last 25% of games played in combination with their record broke Hollinger's system. None of SI, ESPN or the NBA had the Raptors in the top 10 of their power rankings with real people watching the games. In so many words, Hollinger's system has it's place, but it is flawed.

    That's pretty hard to believe.. the West is unbelievable right now... 4.5 games separating 1st and 9th spot... we need to keep the momentum going.. can't afford to lose many games from here on out

    Screw the power rankings we're in playoff position now and once we get a few more wins in and get settled in top 8 position we can start worrying about the worthless power rankings

    That's not Hollinger's comment. On Hollinger's rankings, the fans are the ones who make the comments. If you notice below the comment, it says something like "click here to send your comments...." They then choose a different fan comment each day to use. Hollinger is pure stats....no subjective analsis whatsoever.
