Time for the weekly OKCTG Weekly Power Poll even with snow on the ground in Deer Creek, Oklahoma…. I trudge ahead undaunted in pursuit of NBA blogging excellence. Pauli sits nearby staring down the wild turkeys feeding just a few feet off our back patio, yet knowing she’s part of something special as the teams on this week’s poll roll off my fingers. I’m tired of seeing the same repetitive bullshit from the Oklahoma City Thunder and they drop in this week’s poll. Houston and Memphis leave my poll altogether. Reggie Jackson, Andre Drummond, and the Detroit Pistons welcome to the poll for your first ever visit to the holy grail of NBA hoops. So–here we go.
