Yeah, yeah, I know- its September. Rankings don’t mean anything right now. But we’re going to talk about them because, well, its September and it’s the only thing we can put on paper at the moment, so stay with me.

ESPN released their latest power rankings basked on BPI (basketball power index), and it put the Jazz about where everyone else is thinking.

The Jazz came in at 16th overall in the NBA, 9th in the Western Conference, and 5th in the Northwest Division. Obviously the Jazz will have much higher expectations than missing the playoffs and finishing last in their division.
