Sky....I'm not with you on the Indiana ranking so high at #8. Even with the law breaker problem, I haven't liked that team at all since Reggie Miller retired. I'd put them about 18th.
Quietly that team is now looking like Portland....non-leader players who do not play smart ball. I just see a lot of very low IQ's on that squad.
Probably right. Its my first kick at the cat as far as Power Ranking. People seem to love them. Let's just say its a work in progress. I think time and events will correct my more egregious errors, such as the one you point out. Don't be surprised if my next ranking follow's your advice to a T. Thanks for the input.
Stick to your guns with Indy....you might be right....I was just a big Reggie Miller fan because of the way he torched us, even in his later years. Then after that mess in the Palace two-years ago, it was clear to me that the rest of the Indy roster was not filled with what you'd call "winners" . I think Reggie was a huge stabilizing influence on that team right until his retirement.
The media though seems to still be in love with the Walsh/Bird/Carlisle trio and think Harrington and Daniels are the answer for them. I just don't see it. It looks to me like "Portland East". But that's why they play the games, so we shall find out.
The Bucks are not #1? An outrage I tell you, an outrage! I demand a Congressional investigation! Call the Coast Guard!
