ESPN gonna ESPN

today's power rankings:

Raps in 12th place
Atlanta 9th (we beat them twice and have a better record)
Knicks 6th (we have a better record)
Cavs 5th (we beat them twice)

I'd still have Cavs and Knicks above us just based on historical / we have to prove.

Hawks is ridiculous.

People really love the "Hawks without Trae" narrative lol

But then when they start losing again all you gonna hear is "they didn't have trae" lol

We beat them with and without Trae

Last meeting Oubre and Embiid combined for 48 points and they are both out. Watford hasn't even scored double digits since going off for 20 against us (figures lol). Poeltl can more than hold his own against tubby Drummond. Who cares about Maxey. He always goes off against us, but I highly doubt he and some rookie are going to beat us with the way we're playing.

Our team was just on a back to back last game. They looked tired.

Wasn't that Ingram's first back to back in like a decade too?

[D3158]

Hope Embiid plays. I want my revenge.

Honestly, for the health of our players, I'd rather not.

I see why you would say that

We beat them with and without Trae

Is it me or we always have an answer for Hawks w/or w/o Trae Young?

In all fairness the Hawks improved from last year

Where did you see mcl sprain?

Not great, at least his game isn't really above the rim athleticism anyway but dislike knee stuff on a guy as big and thick as him for sure

[PushDaRock]

Would like to see Mogbo get a shot playing some 4 with CMB is out

[GoRapstheoriginal]

he's gonna have to lose some weight over the off-season for sure

put him on the inverted-gradey dick program

[Basketball_Jones]

Watford Jokic incoming I’m terrified

[WuTang_CMB]

injuries create opportunities. Mogbo isn't CMB but at least he's active and can defend. Darko has to get creative here.

the thing is that in theory these are supposed to be about where teams are at as of this week. that's why they release them each week. not 'how good we think they are regardless of how they're actually doing'.

yeah but they never are. Like if the Hornets started 7-0, nobody would have them as the #1 team in the ranking.

i can't remember which sport it is, maybe baseball? football? where they do actually have the power rankings reflect performance as opposed to expectations. like if the hornets started 7-0 then yeah for sure put them at the top. otherwise it's just meaningless personal bias stuff and what's the point? much more interesting if they actually have it reflect performance. especially early in the season.

Combined salaries for Embiid and PG13. Insane numbers for part-time plyers. Lucky for them they seemed to nail the last 2 drafts.

I thought Charlotte played better.

Mogbo is with the 2-ways in the G-League for the 905's Wed/Thurs back-to-back. Ochai is listed as probable though, so they should still have 11 guys available tonight.
