It’s Power Rankings time again! The first of the (mostly) Monday rankings are out, just ahead of Opening Night, which is actually Tuesday for the Rockets and Warriors and the Celtics and Cavaliers. Nets open against the Pacers, of course, on Wednesday in Indianapolis.
Most power ranking pundits have the Nets down near the bottom of the pile, lower even than where they finished last season, mid- to low 20’s. At the end of last year’s miserable 20-win season, before all the off-season improvements, most power rankings had them in the high 20’s.
