Thanks to AZBuckeye for the new weekly NBA Top 10. This week's installment features a new number-one team, the ponies from Dallas. And the Miami Heat make their way into the rankings this week by beating up on some scrubs.
1. Mavericks - The hottest team in the NBA, 10 wins in a row. Big win in Utah over a hot Jazz team on Friday.
2. Spurs – Number-one team from last week drops a notch with the Mavericks red-hot streak. Spurs still have best record in NBA.
3. Celtics – The Beasts of the East. Keep on winning, and as long as they stay away from back to backs, look for the Celtics to keep winning.
4. Jazz - Dropping two spots after a tough loss at home. Jazz still playing as well as anyone in the league right now not named Dallas.
5. Magic - Big win in Chicago last week, but after that, had issues with the flu bug. Lost in Milwaukee without Dwight Howard and starting point guard Jameer Nelson.
6. Lakers - Struggling big time, won against a terrible Sacramento team. Pau Gasol playing with bad hamstrings, and who knows when Kobe Bryant is going to break down.
7. Nuggets - Denver is on a six-game win streak and quietly sliding up in the Top 10. All the hot stove about Carmelo Anthony has subsided, and the man’s been outstanding.
8. Thunder - Weathered the storm of losing Durant for a few games. Westbrook has been remarkable lately.
9. Hornets - This team is dropping fast, and with all the ownership issues and the rumored NBA takeover of the franchise, things don’t look any better for this club.
10. Heat - LeBron returned to Quicken Arena, why does Rick Pitino come into my head when I think of Quicken now, and lit up the Cadavers last week. Miami seems ready for a run now.
