Re: USA Today NBA Power Rankings I saw these earlier and found them so horrible, I didn't bother posting them. Sometimes, horrible can be funny, but this is just pathetic.
It took me about 15 seconds to find the Celtics on there because I'm so used to looking on the bottom of these things.
76ers and Blazers over the Rockets? I love Elton Brand, but that acquisition is not enough to propel them over a team that figures to win 55+ games in a superior conference. And Portland is still too young, and adding 3 rookies, albeit impressive rookies, isn't going to make them elite either.
LOL @ Houston below Philly. I also think that Oklahoma might surprise some people. Switch New Jersey's spot with Sacramento's on this list, and don't sleep on the Heat I think they are going to surprise some people this year.
