Power Rankings

[BBall Fan]

Who comes up with this stuff??? Classic. "BCS-like" rankings they say.

Just looking at the teams out west, it doesn't make any sense!

Team W L PCT Standings Rank
Utah 25 1 .962 1 1
Long Beach 15 10 .600 2 9
Las Vegas 8 6 .571 3 11
Ontario 15 13 .536 4 13
O.C. 9 8 .529 5 16
Los Angeles 12 11 .522 6 15
Bellevue 10 11 .476 7 12
Tijuana 9 15 .375 8 14

How is it that the 9/15 Tijuana team and the 10-11 Bellevue team rank higher than the 9/8 Orange County and the 12/11 L.A. team?

I am revolted, yet I cannot look away!!!!!

Perhaps the rankings are based not on a team's records, but instead how much money each team has left in the piggy bank. :lol:

DShaw,

I think you are onto something. It appears to be a rather complex formula that emulates the BCS formula...

TOTAL ASSETS - TOTAL DEBT + HOT FACTOR OF OWNER/COACH - IDIOT FACTOR OF OWNER/COACH + TOTAL TATOOS OF PLAYERS - TOTAL CRUCIFIXES ON PLAYER'S CHAINS + NUMBER OF ABA BALLS DONATED TO CHARITY ON BEHALF OF TEAM BY ABA - NUMBER OF ABA BALLS PROMISED TO CHARITIES ON BEHALF OF TEAM BY ABA + REVENUE THAT JOE PROMISED THEY WOULD MAKE IN YEARS 4-5 - REVENUES THAT JOE PROMISED THEY WOULD MAKE IN YEARS 1-3 - FEES CHARGED BY JOE AND RICO.
