The two Nets wins last week may have been against Orlando and Atlanta, two weak Eastern Conference opponents, but wins are wins and the power ranking pundits, for the most part, are taking notice of the Nets’ improved play.
The Nets who languished in mid to low 20’s in preseason rankings have jumped in the first week of Power Rankings. All but one of the rankings we checked have them between 19 and 22, the exception being ESPN (without Marc Stein).
There are a few rankings missing, like CBS Sports and USA Today. When they post, we will add to the mix.
