With the NBA at the quarter mark of the season, a couple of teams in the Western Conference have started to separate themselves while others are still figuring things out.
The Golden State Warriors own the best record in the league at 18-2 while the Phoenix Suns have won 16 consecutive games to start 17-3. They will conveniently face each other twice this week, two contests that will surely decide who the better team is at this point of the year.
To further make sense of it all, Rookie Wire took a look at the NBA and ranked each team from worst to first. We will come back each week and provide our latest assessment on the best teams and those that are rising.
