NBA Rodgers Ratings

Whenever you begin to discuss what team will do the best in the future, you’re going beyond your data. My ratings are simply a look at what teams have done so far, taking into account their opponents, their performance in the games, and their actual win-loss records. As such, especially in the beginning of the season it will look rather different from other “Power” Rankings. Through games on 12/31.
