My Half-Assed Power Rankings 11/17/08

Proof the NBA is rigged.  Had the Lakers gone 8-0, everyone would have

known it was rigged, so because it was rigged, the lakers had to lose one

so prove it wasn't rigged.

Didn't miss Boozer when whupping Utah this week and winning big

everywhere else.

Tracy says he doesn't set hard screens.  I believe him.  Thank goodness

for the Rockets that Rafer Alston is picking up T-Mac's slack.

Window Closed?  Barnes, Bell and Shaq want to break the window. 

Nash would like to shove it some.

KG's Slam interview was almost pissy and he's resorting to gimmick D. 

Somewhere, a celtics-hating blogger is sabotaging the Celtics with sincere

fact-filled articles entitled "Eddie House: SuperStar"

Hawks are making the East the Exciting East. Two straight losses to the

Nets is not the way to grieve a close loss to Boston, but so what?

AI befuddles Boston and the Lakers, continues his ineptitude in the

Valley of the Suns.  Yay!

Billups is replacing AI's numbers almost exactly,

but with fewer TO's and more steals.

Mike & the (Mecha-)Knicks don't need a miracle. 

They apparently didn't need Nash either to bombard the Griz 132-103 on 19 3-pointers.

Trading KG gonna would drop a 100 year curse on the Twolves,

except Kevin McHale won't live that long.

Baron Davis is busy shooting the remix video of

 the Pointer Sisters' "Jump for my love"
