The Oklahoma City Thunder have lost twice in the past week, after having only 1 loss in their first 25 games, which tied an all-time record, but they are still by far the best team in the league at this point. New York moved up 3 spots and is now projected to take the top seed in the East after they took the NBA Cup championship this past week, and the Celtics and Timberwolves have come back to life, each entering the top 10 with 5-spot jumps. Here are my full current rankings and playoff picks:
