ESPN's Marc Stein and SI's Chris Mannix have released their updated NBA power rankings. Guess which team sits atop both polls?
Here's what Mannix has to say about the Celtics:
Rasheed Wallace is a pretty good fit in Beantown, isn't he? Wallace, who is averaging 10.0 points and 4.0 rebounds, has ensured that the Celtics don't miss a beat when Kevin Garnett is out of the lineup. He may be needed to fill Garnett's shoes more often, too: Said one Bulls player, "KG's knee just doesn't look healthy."Maybe that Bulls player should have been playing defense instead of watching KG's knee.
Here's what Stein has to say about the Celtics:
If the Rondo contract extension saga has been a distraction, imagine what kind of D we'll see from the C's when they're focused. They held the Hornets to 87 on Sunday and at times you were asking: "What's wrong?"
The Magic are ranked #2 in both polls.
