Don’t get me wrong, I like their chances to be a top 4 seed in the EC and believe in the Nurse effect to overcome the injury factor to nurse them to an admirable 11-4 record so far but they are not quite as good as the power rankings suggest due to their soft schedule early on. LAL, LAC, Denver, Dallas and Utah from the WC are all more impressive and would beat them in a NBA Finals. That’s if they can get past Philly/Milwaukee/Boston in the EC. Top 10 in the association, yes. Repeat champions, no way.
