Season 16 Power Rankings # 3

It's time to head down the home stretch of the regular season in Kenny Powers, but before we do it's time to check in with the power rankings to see how the races are stacking up.  At the top, Oklahoma City holds on to #1, posting the best record since the last rankings.  No sign of a drop off here.  St. Louis continued their positive momentum from the last rankings period, and jumped again up to #2.  The next handful of teams are extremely close and difficult to rank, but it was Detroit, Tucson and Seattle rounding out the top 5.  It's going to be an interesting stretch run for sure, good luck and here are the complete rankings!
