It’s a balanced year in Central Oregon for boys basketball. The only teams to go undefeated in games against local teams are Sisters (4-0) and La Pine (1-0). When Ridgeview joins the picture for the 2012-13 school year, a CO boys basketball league could be very interesting! Here’s how it’s gone locally so far this season:

Bend – Not Rated

This is what I’d consider a pretty straight forward ranking system. No complex equations that consider how many points you score (meaning you can take your foot off when you’ve got them down 35-0 @ half), and no opinion. Just wins and who you lose to. Also, it keeps things going based on the year before. For example, if you win state and then you are undefeated the next season you should be ranked No. 1.

Formula
• Finish previous season (this sets the criteria for unbeaten teams)
1 Sherwood, 2 Marist, 3(t) Mountain View, 3(t) Crescent Valley, 5(t) Corvallis, 5(t) Jefferson, 5(t) Lebanon, 5(t) Churchill, 9(t) Franklin, 9(t) Bend, 9(t) Liberty, 9(t) Ashland, 9(t) Parkrose, 9(t) Lebanon, 9(t) The Dalles-Wahtonka, 9(t) Wilsonville.

1 – New York Knicks – $655 – Biggest market… biggest worth.
2 – Los Angeles Lakers – $643 – Second largest market… you get the idea.
3 – Chicago Bulls – $511 – Big market. Sports town. And they are winning again!
4 – Boston Celtics – $452 – Celtics are right up there with the Lakers, Cowboys and Yankees when it comes to franchises.
5 – Houston Rockets – $443 – You can thank Yao Ming for this. The Rockets are huge in China.
6 – Dallas Mavericks – $438
7 – Miami Heat – $425 – The big 3. LeBron James joining the Heat upped their worth by 17%. The most in NBA history.
8 – Phoenix Suns – $411
9 – San Antonio Spurs – $404 – They just win and with pretty much the same guys doing the winning every year.
10 – Toronto Raptors – $399
11 – Orlando Magic – $385
12 – Golden State Warriors – $363
13 – Detroit Pistons – $360
14 – Portland Trail Blazers – $356 – They aren’t the largest market, but they are the only NBA team in the entire Pacific Northwest and the only pro team in all of Oregon (soon to change with the Portland Timbers of MLS).
15 – Cleveland Cavaliers – $355
16 – Utah Jazz – $343
17 – Philadelphis 76ers – $330
18 – Oklahoma City Thunder – $329 – With two of the best young players in the NBA, it’s a shame they aren’t in Seattle anymore.
19 – Washington Wizards – $322
20 – Denver Nuggets – $316
21 – New Jersey Nets – $312
22 – Los Angeles Clippers – $305 – Don’t be surprised to see this go up. The Clippers have the market to work with and now they have a team that can sell tickets and a player (Blake Griffin) that can sell jerseys.
23 – Atlanta Hawks – $295
24 – Sacramento Kings – $293
25 – Charlotte Bobcats – $281
26 – New Orleans Hornets – $280

I have LaMarcus Aldridge listed as the 4th best power forward in the league. Where would you rate him?
