Why are the Bucks ahead of us

[–] OutsideTheServiceBox@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Admittedly I can't get past the paywall, but it seems premature to be putting the Bucks #1. I imagine this is one of those lists where they weigh recent results pretty heavily, so that Charlotte loss for Boston and the recent Murray-less struggles for Denver were big reasons. Still not sure if they deserve to be above Philly either though.

Regardless, glad to see Milwaukee seemingly starting to put it together at least though. I'd agree with top 5 for sure.

Then why would the Knicks be over the Heat? List is just ass

Raptors are way too low

[–] Rammstonna@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Poor Wemby ending up in a team with no pg… the guy won so much, he took a team not supposed to make the playoff to the finals and the year after he joins the best league in the world to end up with a guy having no will and absolutely no clue on how to play point guard. He joins the youngest team and is coached by pop who for the moment just let them figure out and doesn’t draw plays for what should be the first option. I hope he’s doing that to know who to trade next year.

[–] notafan1@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The Nuggets have the lowest free-throw accuracy and free-throw rate in the league. Improve those?

I knew that they had the lowest rate since Nugget fans keep posting about that stat but the lowest accuracy too?

That's interesting. Probably not significant but interesting nonetheless.

[–] Elsquidwardo85@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I don’t think we’re better than the mavs, suns, or heat but I guess I’ll take it

[–] CoolGrandpa1932@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I don't feel like we should be #1 lol.

[–] SaintsPelicans1@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Keep sleepin

[–] azzadruiz@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

These lists obviously don’t matter but I don’t see how Celtics aren’t #1 for power rankings. I think it should go Celtics then Twolves and then in any order 76ers nuggets bucks. Would be fine with nuggets to be ranked low cause we really do struggle without Murray

I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think you’re right. We had one loss to phoenix with a severe rest advantage but have taken care of business otherwise. Celtics lost to the hornets last week.

[–] bob_scratchit@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

As a Cavs fan, that’s exactly where I’d put them. I’m the up and up though, hopefully.

[–] ablackcloudupahead@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Wow this list is bad

[–] MarsMC_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

why are the kings and knicks over the mavs

[–] Rithgarth@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I mean we good, but #1 in the power rankings seems a bit excessive

[–] StopOFlop@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I don't watch a lot of cavs but I find the following intriguing:

> I’m not totally convinced Evan Mobley can reach his full potential with Mitchell on his team. He’s so much better offensively when Mitchell isn’t out there, and it shouldn’t be that way.

What does the author mean?

The disrespect continues I guess lol

[–] Papaloxs@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

That’s part of the curse of never making it past the second round 😭

[–] Mysterious_Let_88@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

How tf are the warriors 18th? I get that we don't have GP2 or Dray but still god damn. Also Lakers at 16 blows my mind, they should be higher up on this list.

[–] Ramzaa_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

THUNDER A TOP 5 TEAM

All I pray is the bucks Celtics game is competitive and close I don’t care who wins (though I want the bucks to win ofc)

My biggest fear is like a 70 point blowout 😭

How are we #1? We are far away from where we need to be

[–] International-Pie162@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The Lakers have won 6 of their last 7 games, have beaten Phoenix twice head to head, and are ranked 6 positions lower 🤔🤔🤯
