NBA Power Rankings: Week Five

3. Miami Heat (No change)

So the Bobcats pushed them close before Chris Bosh hit three three-pointers in the fourth quarter to pull them clear.

Meanwhile, LeBron James’ shooting splits on the season are filthy: 60 percent from the field, 50 percent from three and 80 percent from the line. Needless to say, that would be an all-time first.

4. Oklahoma City Thunder (Up 2)

The wild finish against Golden State helped them climb up this week. They took down the Spurs earlier in the week too. Impressive. The bench unit assembled by Thunder GM Sam Presti will win this team games. Jeremy Lamb looks like a solid building block for the future and Steven Adams has been an absolute draft steal, something we’re all too used to seeing Presti pull off.
