    They are ranked 8th behind Lakers, Kings, Bucks, Mavs, Wolves, Spurs and Magic.

    At least someone has their head on straight!

    Well I will be damned. Boy oh boy! Just like that! What will we be ranked when Rice, Thomas and Griffin shows up? I am assuming that these folks have studied the numbers and have seen that our frontline is not that thin, that Rice will start hitting, that our fg% will go up, and so and so on!

    Now comes the hard part: MAINTAINING

    But the whole point is about winning when you are supposed to be winning! Being ranked up there and winning games that we are supposed to be winning is the key to winning it all! Whether we beat them by 2 or by 10 it is the win on the WIN column that matters! Win number 4 coming TONIGHT!

    That's right it's based on our won-loss record. I doubt that if we win 55 games they'll take away 15 of them because they're "bad wins". They aren't acting like we beat the Wolves, the Rockets are 3 spots behind the Wolves! They did kind of reward the Rockets because they know that if Rice's three goes down the Rocks are 4-0. And this is with the Rocks not playing at their best yet.

    yes, but the only loss was to the mighty mighty #4 T-Pups. That's good karma. Beating the bad teams. :cool:
