This is just a reminder that NY's apparently powerhouse OFF has been puffed up by facing weak DEF teams - these are KM's DEF ranks of NY's PO opponents: ATL 18, PHL 16, CLV 15 --- SA is 4.

So sounds like even with using SOS he still has Knicks slightly better.

In all of my posts I failed to mention that Ken Massey had NY's DEF ranked #1. SA's DEF did play well enough to keep NY Under their team total of 106.5 or 107.5, but NY's DEF played a LOT better.
Duh. At least I limited my losses.
