Where's the foul?

Actually, it was before SAC lost to DAL. SAC was at 1673 while SA was at 1671 On 11-27-06 SA was 1693, SAC at 1653. SAC wins on 11-28, SA doesn't play, SAC jumps to 1673, SA still at 1693. 11-29-06, SAC doesn't play stays at 1673, SA plays and loses to UTA, drop down to 1671.

Updated Power Rankings 12-1-06 I didn't spend time giving some interesting notes about the team's improvements and non-improvements as I did last weak - and I didn't calculate each division/conference average this time around. I was simply too lazy after a big loss to DAL :( Well, Dallas...

The mavs just simply showed why they're the best team in the NBA. Taking care of business against a Mediocre Playoff team at home... Hopefully the Kings can bounce back and steal one in SA like they did last lear.

Yes, 11-4 record after a 0-4 start. They've also passed up the Jazz in the ratings with a 1748 rating compared to the Jazz's 1718 (was 1750 before they lost to Lakers).

And he wouldn't.

Your picks are very solid. Of course, all of this can change when Feb. comes around. There is still a lot of basketball to be played!!! I think pierce is deserving of the start spot thus far - is he still averaging 10 rbs a game?

No. Baron Davis is the best guard in the West right now. He should be the starter at the 2 - but Kobe will win the voting. Replacing D. Williams with M.Bibby would be more acceptable - but is Bibby even playing at an all star level right now?

Suns have been playing top notch recently, actually. You're right about the Clips though.

I remember playing ball with Matt and his little brother at the gym a few months after his UCLA team got knocked out of march madness - does anyone know what happened to his brother? He was a strong ball player as well - much smaller though.

I see wins vs. ORL and LAC in this stretch. SAC will be rated 1653 (after win vs POR) going into the LAC game - I fiddled around with the ratings and If we do go 2-3 beating ORL and LAC, we should stay around the 1640-1650 range. If SAC goes 3-2, they are looking to be rated in the 1670 area.

The Lakers were at 6-3 by that time, and kings were at 5-3. The Lakers last two wins that week were against Toronto and Memphis - so they didn't gain many points off of those wins. Kings also beat Memphis and Toronto not much earlier, but they were rated a bit higher then, so Sac gained some...

Power Rankings, 11/24/06 !!! Refer to http://www.kingsfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16452 For last week's Power Rankings. Many teams made HUGE swings this week with lots of upsets and some nice winning streaks. Utah still holds the #1 spot with obvious domination - it would take a nice...

Seattle 11/23/06 current rating: 1622 6-7 Sacramento 11/23/06 current rating: 1605 5-5 If Seattle wins.... SEA new rating: 1637 7-7 SAC new rating: 1590 5-6 If Sacramento wins.... SAC new rating: 1622 6-5 SEA new rating: 1605 6-8 - Pretty good to have an "above average" rating if...

Heh, I'm already writing a program/calculator for this :) Thanks for the offer.

For each game I have to get the result, plug in the ratings for the winner and loser into the formula and do the math, then update the ratings for the respective teams. This is very easy, but takes sooo much time. I actually decided to do this ratings list about 2 weeks into the season, so I...

I predict a win also.

Yes, chess organizations use the ELO ratings formula. This is very similar.

As of 11/21 the Jazz have a whopping league leading 1760 perfomance rating compared to the barely above average 1620 rating of the Kings. If Jazz win... Jazz New Rating: 1775 Kings New Rating: 1605 If Kings win... Kings New Rating: 1655 Jazz New Rating: 1725 - still league leading. Current...
