OKC Thunder: TI editor power rankings week 10 – the holidays are here

Week 10 of power rankings pundits keep the OKC Thunder in the NBA’s top tier. Discover where each site ranked them and my personal ratings for all 30 teams.

The NBA enters week 11 with as much uncertainty as it displayed in the early going of the season. It’s fair to say five teams have distanced themselves in the East and three in the West including the OKC Thunder.

The difference this season continues to be parity, injuries and and the fact any team in the West can string together ten wins and find themselves near the top the ladder.

The Warriors continue to toy with media and fans seeking a reason to believe there are enough minor issues to warrant belief they aren’t the definitive favorites to three-peat. While everyone concentrates on finding those flaws DeMarcus Cousins nears his return which will result in the Dubs being able to play a complete All-Star starting line-up. Still,  I remain a glass half full type, who recognizes the best chance opponents will have to usurp the Dubs is a solid defensive squad.  Ahh, and guess what the OKC Thunder are best at?

In the East the battle at the top is raging with the Raptors and Bucks pushing each other for that top spot and the Pacers directly on their heels.

This week’s power rankings keeps things simple with just the ranking and stats as the goal is to release week 11’s power ranking with more insight earlier in the week.

With that I offer up my picks and follow them with where the National sites and blogs rank the OKC Thunder.

Happy holidays all, enjoy the rankings and make sure to return early next week for the 11th edition of the power rankings as we tip off 2019!
