It’s time for the @joinoffside.bsky.social NBA Power Rankings. Kings are rock bottom, Hornets are buzzin', Cavs got Harden dimes, and the Knicks are heating up.

while the application of this is dumb/indefensible, i'm sure they've at least also incorporated an element that will make tickets more affordable based on the likelihood star plays will be available, right? RIGHT?

the defense has impressed more than than anything. some shooting luck, but the benefit of being able to get set thanks to their offense is huge, diabate and miller are killing it, sion james is a tank, josh green's having moments, etc etc etc. wouldn't have predicted them being top 5 since TG.

yuuuuup, at bare minimum. which would require guardrails it doesn't seem like we have. and part of those guardrails should be a higher standard for clearance application, rather than, like, 80 percent success rates on critical surgeries as an example
