There has been a lot of talk about how the NBA should switched 1-16 seedings rather than 2 1-8 seedings. There are arguments both ways for it.

Anyway, how would you rank the teams in the league if we did a 1-16 ranking?

Here's mine(subject to change based on futures moves)

1. Warriors
2. Rockets
3. Celtics
4. Sixers
5. Jazz
6. Thunder
7. Lakers
8. Pacers
9. Raptors
10. Blazers
11. Pelicans
12. Spurs
13. Bucks
14. Twolves
15. Nuggets
16. Heat

That would pose some pretty interesting 1st round matchups. I could see the Bucks moving up the rankins and Blazers moving down. Spurs could move either way.

Must have hurt a little to put the Celtics at 2, huh?

Lakers should be number 1 because they're the Lakers.

Rest of the list doesn't matter.

Not really. Think they're a 45-48 win type team. Actually should have placed Toronto over them as well

Interesting. They had, IIRC, the 3rd best record in basketball from January on. Made short work of the Thunder.

Granted a lot will depend on how Donovan Mitchell progresses.
