    How is Denver ranked higher than us? They're below us in the standings and we're on a better run.

    I don't get that at all.

    And because Denver started off the season playing almost all of their games on the road and came out of it with a winning record?

    They've got a huge home-stand coming up and they're almost unbeatable at home, they've got seasoned vets, a good core that's got more experience and a winning record against western conference teams while we're sporting a losing one.

    #8 is fine, but the Lakers don't deserve anywhere near #14. I put them at #19 or #20

    Also they are one of the few teams with a stronger SOS than we have.
