Power Rankings: Nets moving on up ... but not high
Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty ImagesEven before their blowout of the Kings on Monday afternoon, power rankers had begun to take notice of what they were doing ... to a certain extent.
Those who put together power rankings seem to take one of two roads to their compilation: who’s hot at the moment or who has the best record. Sometimes, if the pundits are lucky, a team will be both, but what of the Nets who have been hot now for nearly six weeks, since December 6, but are still just above .500? They’ve moved up, of course, but despite their wins, their 17-5 record over that stretch, they can’t seem to break into the top 10.
