Nuggets with 2 blowout bad losses in a row..

[SpursFanFirst]

Not surprised.

I am, actually.

I would expect the Celtics to be number 1 over the Lakers.
I'm also wondering how Denver is ranked so high.

Hm. I think there are probably a few other things I'd disagree with, but these two rankings jumped out at me.

At this point, I much rather the team suck early and come out roaring late in the season after all the growing pains.

Rockets captains: Battier and Hayes.

Our two captains can't even guarantee 20 points on a nightly basis! ^_^

I would be suprised if those two could combine to score 20.

Why in the world are the Lakers higher than the Celtics on this list?

Suns and Magic should both be higher than the Nuggets.

And the Hawks and Trailblazers should both be higher than the Spurs right now.
