sooooooo, like a funny joke or one of those jokes that no one gets at first but then they realize that they didnt get it cause it just wasn't funny? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

rankings for the most part are always pretty subjective..
What I don´t get about these rankings is that Stein allways writes they are not so much about the projected outcome of the season but more about recent results and play.

Then why on earth are teams like Indiana, who beat a leastern parade of Cleveland , Boston and Chicago or Miami who beat "powerhouses" like Washington, New Jersey and Cleveland, "better" right now than Dallas who beat three teams from the west (which is, despite Detroit winning it all last year, still the much better conference overall). In addition all of Dallas opponents were playoff teams last year. If this really was ablout actual play the Mavs should be top3 easily. Not saying it´ll be that way at the end of the year, but right now we definitly deserve a higher spot.

Actually though I don´t really care for all that crap the national media is spouting out. Most of it is badly written, ill informed and or heavily biased.
