No suprises there. The Spurs have the best record since the All Star Break. Most people will act like it doesn't matter, but those are the ones who are still living in early February.

Power Rankings have never determined an NBA championship.

Toronto numero seis.....officially on their bandwagon @least until spurs meet them in finals.... heck it seems like toronto beats us 1 a year when we play them on Sundays

Actually I was kinda surprised as I went down the list. Toronto in the top 10? Isn't that where Rashostein is?

And Go Bulls! Nail down that second round pick for the Spurs.

No. That was me. Pissing on you and all the other f-wads who can't get a bit excited that their team is doing well and getting recognized for it.

I'm excited that the Spurs are playing well -- better, at least, than they were earlier this year. But I don't need power rankings to tell me that, and I'm not going to get excited or upset based upon what some fat sportswriter sitting behind his computer thinks of my team at any given moment.

F-wad if you like, but it's not like this is my first rodeo.

Power rankings are absolutely meaningless to anything other than getting insecure fans delighted or upset about some totally irrelevant national perception of the team.

True. Last season everyone was saying that the playoffs weren't worth playing that all they needed to do was go straight to the Spurs/Pistons Finals.

We all know how that ended.

Tsk tsk, now you had to go and escalate what was a perfectly witty response to your idiotic post.

Being excited and being a douche-bag fan are two very different things. Me: "Spurs are playing well, I am very excited about that. However, I want to see them win 16 games in the playoffs and win the championship, because, well, for this team and what it's trying to achieve that's all that really matters and it's what I really want to see, that's what I get excited about."

You: "I'm a douche-bag fan who crows about every little positive thing about our team and cries like a little whiny bitch whenever anyone comes in and interjects a modicum of reality to a discussion."

Curse all you want, it means about the same as the Spurs being number one in an arbitrary list...jack shit.

[romain.star]

both of you guys are right
cheering and criticizing are what this board is all about

[peskypesky]

Spurs still #1 in Power Rankings!

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/marty_burns/04/10/power.rankings/index.html


And for all of you who don't understand power rankings, this means we are a lock to win the Championship. No matter what all the nay-sayers say. :hungry:

[peskypesky]

and the Spurs are also #1 in ESPN power rankings:

Toronoto #6?

Spurs - 21-3 since All-Star break
Mavs - 21-4 since All-Star break...and they've played like $hit for a couple weeks now...

The playoffs should be good...
