Our founder, Chris Sheridan, hereafter to be known as OFCS, had the Heat at No. 1 in his rankings before they lost to the Warriors, which shows what he knows. Just kidding. We may have a lot of years covering the NBA between us, but if we were clairvoyant, we’d be selling our rankings to, uh, investors at $1,000 a pop. With the teams at the 9-10-11-game mark, the great ones have yet to pull away from the pack, although some bad teams
Sheridan’s Sunday Power Rankings
The big movers in a positive direction this week are the Sixers, Jazz, Clippers, Hawks and Cavs. Those going southbound include the Magic, Bucks, Warriors and Hornets. As you may have noticed, we have doubled down on Power Rankings on the site. Mark Heisler is doing his own rankings every Wednesday, and he is going to have to learn to write in HTML. Well, on second thought, that’s probably not a good idea. But he will write shorter comments than I will, because
Heisler’s Wednesday Power Rankings
With Chris Sheridan, our founder, ranking teams on Sundays and mine running Wednesdays, we become the first dual-ranking (duel-ranking?) NBA site, at least done by guys who have been around long enough to have seen Dr. Naismith personally take the ball out of the peach basket at YMCA in Springfield, Mass.

Sheridan Power Rankings: Week 2
This item will be called Sheridan Power Rankings each Sunday, because we are doubling down on Power Rankings and running two of them each week. The next edition will run Wednesday, and it will be written by the one and only Mark Heisler, whose qualifications include being a member of the media wing of the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. There is a change at the top this week, some big-time movers rising from the middle, and still
Offshore power rankings: Odds to win title
Merry Christmas, all. Lots of feedback on yesterday’s inaugural preseason power rankings, with positive vibes coming out of Chicago (No. 1) and Memphis (No. 4), vitriol spewing from Jersey (No. 30). Of course, one man’s opinion is just an opinion. But there are others who take the relative strengths and weaknesses of the 30 NBA teams more seriously, because they have money riding on it. Many of those folks are offshore, spending today’s holiday on the beaches of the tiny islands where their
Power Rankings: Preseason edition
The NBA season begins tomorrow, and those who have been reading his site regularly know where I stand on the Clippers (unconvinced) but probably didn’t know I am higher on the T-Wolves than probably anyone not named Glen Taylor, and I am so down on the Eastern Conference that I have filled spots 25-30 with them in the inaugural SheridanHoops power rankings. Feel free to express your admiration, grief or grievances in the comments section, and you can look forward
