It's early, but Memphis looking like a contender.

If they stay healthy and play at a high level, they're as good or better than every team out West.

Stern wouldn't want them in the Finals though.

I'm talking about in opponents field goal percentage which is what counts more than points allowed.

If A Team Shoots 20% But Scored 140 On You And Wins Who Cares About Percentage?

Since the sample size is so small you have to take into account that we did play in a double overtime game which effected the points per game %. What it really means is we put our opponent on the line too much while not getting there enough. As the season goes on we'll see if we're good defensively or not, i'm saying without our 2 best defenders we're still stopping guys from scoring at a high %. Imagine what'll happen when Bogut returns.

Their defensive rating (early of course) is 11th.

It's hard to take stats seriously so early. My team is 2nd in points allowed, 2nd in OPP FG% and 2nd in defensive rating. Have we played good defense so far? Yes. Are we that good a defensive team? Hell no.
