Someone with Basketball Knowledge

Okay, so I often check out TSN.ca's power rankings for baseball and hockey, and today I was looking at the NBA rankings.

I don't know much about basketball, nor do I care to follow the NBA very closely - but I do know that the Celtics are having an amazing year.

Explain to me why they are #11, with a record of 41-9?

These ranking systems all seem completely subjective.

First off, power rankings are completely bulls***. Anyone who puts stock in these needs to get out more.

The celtics to me would be #10, followed by #11 pistons. The West is clearly the better conference with 9 great teams. There really is only 3 teams in the East with Boston, Detroit and Orlando. Everyone else doesnt matter.

Oh okay - I was not aware that the East was a weaker conference. It makes more sense now.

I think PR is for what team is best during that certain amount of time.. not the wholeseason..

other than that idk.
