1 - Toronto Raptors - Best record in the League and only team with a winning % over .700. This coming while playing in the toughest division.
2 - Milwaukee Bucks - Phenomenal start to the season. Like the Raps, they are winning while playing in the best division in basketball. Contributions are coming from everyone.
3 - New Orleans Hornets - Great starting lineup that is coming together early in the season.
4 - Chicago Bulls - A nice combination of youthful exuberance and veteran leadership. Competitive as usual.
5 - Cleveland Cavaliers - Another Central division team that is winning alot more than they are losing, go figure. A new system seems to have ignited a 9 game winning streak.
6 - Golden State Warriors - Finally, a non-Central division team. Warriors are the best in the West at this point in the season. Darko Milicic has become a superstar.
7 - Minnesota Timberwolves - Balanced team that finds ways to win even with sub standard play from Ak47.
8 - Detroit Pistons - Two painful words, patella tendinitis. Even without Jermaine O'Neal this team is still in the playoff mix.
9 - Houston Rockets - Solid team going with a center by committee approach. Alright for the regular season but someone has to emerge come playoff time.
10 - New York Knicks - Tops in the Atlantic. A veteran team whose window is closing. Could this be the year?
11 - San Antonio Spurs - Managing to compete while in rebuild mode. Impressive, especially considering Billups is out with a bout of depression. Come on Chauncey, the situation in San Antonio isn't nearly as bad as we thought it was.
12 - Indiana Pacers - Young team managing to compete with the big boys.
13 - Miami Heat - Good young team that will get better with experience. Future looks bright.
14 - Utah Jazz - A veteran bunch that should be a playoff team. We think they are better than they've shown to this point. Perhaps a new philosophy is in order?
15 - Atlanta Hawks - In any other division this team is above .500.
16 - Los Angeles Lakers - A team in constant change. Managing to compete in the weak western conference.
17 - Orlando Magic - Playing below expectations and ability. Giving up a ton of points.
18 - Washington Wizards - Carmelo has come back to Earth and AI is on the downswing. Still have a shot at the playoffs.
19 - Sacramento Kings - Redd almost reddy. If this team can gel, they will win some games. Duncan is playing his best ball in years.
20 - New Jersey Nets - Shannon Brown looks great. Young team that wishes they were out West.
21 - Phoenix Suns - A team we thought would be in the playoff picture and they are. More turnovers than a bakery. Yea, we're very original.
22 - Seattle Supersonics - Went with a youth movement. Luckily for them, they're in the West. Can they hang on?
23 - Denver Nuggets - A team on the outside looking in. They have talent but can they put it all together and make a run at the postseason?
24 - Los Angeles Clippers - Zeke is injured. Telfair is good, but he isn't Zeke. A team with little depth.
25 - Memphis Grizzlies - They're scoring but also getting scored upon. Probably better than they've shown.
26 - Boston Celtics - A team looking to the future. Sad thing is they'd have a shot at the playoffs in the West. Sad for the Western conference that is.
27 - Dallas Mavericks - Haven't turned the corner yet but we like they're future. What we don't like is that contract they gave to AI wannabe Nolan Smith.
28 - Philadelphia 76ers - As usual, a team with talent that can't make it work. Time to rebuild?
29 - Portland Trailblazers - We're not sure what's going on in Portland but whatever it is KG can't like it.
