Week 5 and 6 Combined Power Rankings

1. Team Werner- (-) These last two weeks really showed team Werner's versatility. A dominating win over team Dawson, while missing their best player in Justin Watt, really showed this teams less talented players ability to scrap and fight for wins. A close high scoring win over team Gavel, really showed their ability to ride Justin's coattails. Once Justin was added to team Werner's roster they have become unstoppable, his super star play is what makes this team great. Everyone on the team should thank him for saving them, without him they would be nothing.

2. Team Tornaritis- (-) They rebounded nicely from back to back losses, by solidly winning back to back games. They will continue to win and lose based on how well Dean plays, if teams can find a way to stop him, they will struggle.

3. Team Dawson- (+3) They went a solid 1-1 being beat badly by Werner, but beating Team Gingras. They are tied for the best record in the league, and despite apparent mismatches they are able to win games. If teams continue to underestimate them, then team Dawson will continue winning.
4. Team Dorff- (-) We still feel they deserve to be a top 5 team, however after going 1-1 we are unsure how they will finish. They have lost some of their early season scoring firepower, and appear to be trying to rely on playing a defensive game. If they want to start winning they should work harder to be balanced in practice.
5. Team Transfaglia- (-) They have the ability to be dominant, if they can play well together. They are still struggling to play as a team, going 1-1. Perhaps less complaining about not getting foul calls could help this team win.
6. Team Booth- (+3) They looked impressive over the last 2 games going 2-0. We were ready to give up on them after they lost 2 in a row. They bounced back nicely and are also tied for the best record in the league. If they continue to win games, they'll climb back to the top of the league.
7. Team Gingras- (-4) They have played bad in back to back games, and after Connor's glass knees finally shattered the future for this team looks bleak. It appears that Jack Battles has been trying to do to much and needs to spread the ball around to his teammates if they are going to win.
8. Team Coveno- (+3) Congratulations on their 3 game win streak. This shows they might not be walked over after all. While they haven't beaten the most impressive teams, they have played well. If they continue to hustle they might win a few more games.
9. Team Gavel- (+3) They are still very inconsistent and can't win more than 1 game in a row. That being said they played Werner as close as anyone all year, while missing their tallest player in Zach Gavel. They could be Werner's kryptonite if they meet in the playoffs.
10. Team Mitchell- This team has self- destructed over the past 2 weeks. Perhaps it's Nates fault. perhaps it's not, but it probably is. Nobody is playing well, and there own team members are turning on each other, Darren Costa was quoted as saying "I've given up hope on our team, I don't think we'll win another game."
11. Team Hecht- We've been an unimpressive 0-2 over the past 2 games. Our lack of height was exposed by Coveno, as we failed to get any rebounds against them. I wasn't at the last game, but have been informed the game was more lopsided than the score was. Hopefully we can find our shooting stroke and start making 3s to win some more games.
12. Team Modzelewski- They can't do anything right this season, and it seems their terrible performance in week 2 has been holding them back. Hopefully they can get focused and win a few more games before the season ends.
