NBA Power Rankings

Ah, the NBA season is also upon us, and yes, I do have a program that will run through and predict NBA games.  However, it takes awhile for the data to smooth itself out because NBA teams have a lot of variance on a night to night basis.  But, its always fun to have power rankings.


A few oddities if you're looking at the NBA standings.  The first, is the Cavs coming in at just number 7.  The issue has been they've played some pretty poor competition so far, with half their games going against teams under .500, and they have not yet blown any of them out.  The Magic are another one, but there's is more that the good teams they've played, they have lost by 12 to Miami, 26 to Detroit, and 32 to Chicago on Monday.
