ASSASSINS GIVE THE POWER RANKINGS A SNIPER SHOT TO THE HEAD.........

The week started with a long winning streak keeping the Miami Heat in a tie for 1st place with the team with the best record in the league..... the Oklahoma City Thunder. Well the Thunder has struck with continuous wins more than once this week, and the Heat saw their streak come to an end at he hands of the dam Utah Jazz..... With this happening, and Chicago on a 5 game win streak snatching the leagues 2nd best record................ Weeeeelllll...... Let's just say. In the name of the late great Notorious B.I.G......... "Things Done Changed". We now have at:

#1) OKC Thunder (Pin point, madmen, clutch, fearless shooters that do it with the relaxed demeanor you have after running in the house to take a piss after holding it for 2hrs. This team is loaded with precise assassins whom come to the job DONE. They've fought hard to get here, and well deserve it.)

#2) CHICAGO BULLS (the leagues 2nd best record and a 5 game win streak has the Bulls quickly gaining on the THUNDER & surpassing the HEAT in this weeks PR RANKINGS.

#3)MIAMI with the leauges third best record and the top 2 teams maintaining powerful winning streaks. The Heat may be cooling off.

#4)SPURS (maintaining the leagues 4th best record in spite of missing Ginobli and keeping a solid grip on 2nd place in the West keeps the Spurs in 4th place heading towards tonights lock-in hour)

#5) L.A. CLIPPERS (with tomorrow's meeting with the Rockets, and the Lakers playing the Heat, the LAC may be able to hold on to their position with a win and a Laker loss. But if both teams lose, and the Clippers lose by a considerable amount. And the Lakers give a respectable showing against the Heat........... The Lakers may slip into 5th spot.)

#6) L.A. LAKERS (with a 22-14 record, and a 2 game winning streak the Lakers are sooooooo close to grabbing that 5th spot. It can be done with ease if they can do one thing.......... AVENGE THEIR XMAS DAY DEFEAT TOMORROW AGAINST THE MIAMI HEAT..............It that simple....LOL)

#7) INDIANA (On a 5 game winning streak and the 3rd best record in the East, some may actually believe they should be ranked higher. But the strength of their schedules makes this a perfect fit.)

#8) MEMPHIS (Leaping into the PR this week and winning 8 of their last 10 all against teams that are fighting hard to get onto this list. Memphis seems to be trying to repeat last years surge towards the playoffs.)

#9) ORLANDO (consider this a gift...... due to Atlanta having the same flaws, and having a worse record. Orlando just needs to learn how to finish teams off. They have lead many of the top teams in the league going deep into the 4th qtr but somehow lets the W slip through their fingers. The 76ers are on their ass, and some very deserving teams are fighting to get in........ TST is not one for pity picks, but if we've ever given one........ This is it. Orlando, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!!!!..... Consistantly.)

#10) PHILADELPHIA 76ERS (while Houston struggles to remain significant after dropping 2 in a row to Utah and Denver. The 76ers stick their heads into the PR to see what it looks like)
