    With Miami losing, the Blazers are #1! We beat SAS, so we trumped them. Okc doesn't have as many wins. Enjoy this day! I bet none of you would ever think anyone could post this 18 games in.

    How are we #1 with one less win and one more loss than Indiana?

    We've been the best since the beginning. We just had to prove it which we are doing nightly. By the way, for all you preseason lovers, we have now won 20 of our last 23 games.

    This isn't the BCS... this game cares about wins and losses, not about who you beat.

    Indiana = .889 winning percentage
    Portland = .833 winning percentage

    I love your homerism but we are #2 right now. Certainly possible to be #1 in power rankings ne,t week especially if we win out. If pacers lose 1 before we do we will be #1

    lol yeah. I love that we're up there, but I know we ain't #1 overall.

    16-2 and 15-3 are completely different, no matter if we have beat Indy and SA. The W-L is still different.

    So what y'all are saying is that we are #1 overall in the NBA?

    Sweet!
