WooHoo, the Pearl Harbor Defenders are making noise!

[liquidcrash]

#1 pick here I come!

[HWessinmouse]

Yep, and check out New Orleans huge jump. Art imitating life

[robster1225]

Are these the in game power rankings?

[HWessinmouse]

preseason (previous) ratings were based off of the in-game power rankings, the current is based on a complex formula of points for/points against, opponent strenght, etc.

[robster1225]

oh, ok, just curious. I didn't think that the rankings in the game had changed, but I wasn't sure

[Guest]

Let's see, Phoenix started off 20th, moved to 13th. Now to crack the top ten.

[robster1225]

That's not going to happen, since your going to lose to the Defenders this week!

[Guest]

Using preseason games for this probably isn't the best idea, if you want it to be accurate. Some of us have inactivated starters for part of the preseason.

[liquidcrash]

True, but it's interesting nonetheless. I hope you update it regularly during the season, as the Grizzlies sink lower and lower in the standings.

[Clay]

This formula must be VERY complicated for my team to go 2-1 in the first 3 weeks and drop 11 places to #18 in the league.

[robster1225]

I agree that it isn't terribly accurate, but it is fun and interesting nonetheless.

[HungryB]

I think it's great. Gives us more to look at then the power ratings from within the game. Hopefully you keep it up in the regular season like liquid said.

[Z]

Wow, I've never heard of a team dropping 20 spots after losing a game.
