No one man should have all that power.

Welcome to the Rank and Over React podcast. I'm Zach Hartford.

That's the cultural anthropologist for the athletic, Wazdi Lambray, and we are back with power rankings.

I do the power rankings.

You tell me how bad they are.

Was reads the comments, and I defend myself. That's how

this goes. So was, what is the theme of the return of the NBA? Well, before, before we get into the

power ranking and, you know, the reaction from our fantastic readers at the athletic, I just

want to say in the words of the great Queens, New York native L.L. Cool J.

Don't call it a comeback.

We know it's not going to happen.

But yeah, I would say the theme, man, this, and again, this is going to shock you.

We've done many of these episodes.

Boston fans, not happy.

What is what?

Not happy.

Not happy.

People of Boston, you'll be surprised to learn, Zach, are actually not happy.

What?

You might have ranked teams that are probably better than them ahead of them on the power ranking, and so therefore

they're upset.

That's what it's supposed to do.
