It baffles me to think there are 6 teams worse than us.

It means we can still get better at being bad!

I don't think it's that surprising. Say the Blazers end up with 28 wins. That would be the equivalent of 25 wins in a covid season
* so last season, 25 wins would have put them in 7th
* in 2019-20 they would have been tied for 7th
* in 2018-19 they would have been 5th
* in 2017-18 they would have been tied for 8th
over the previous 8-9 seasons we got use to paying attention to HCA seeding for the playoffs, not lottery seeding. There are always 4-6 truly crappy teams

And only 4-6 contenders each year. Everyone else is below average, average or a bit over average.
The NBA is built around playin and playoff hoops.

i'm not talking about wins/losses. i was talking about the power rankings, which is what this thread is about. Having lost 10 of 11 games, many by 30+, i'm surprised that they ranked us above 6 other teams.
