The Miami Heat were the Pre-Season #1 team in the league and its no surprise that they are still ranked #1 in the Power-Rankings entering this final month of the Season... With LeBron James, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh this team is simply loaded with talent and are the favorite to represent the Eastern Conference in the NBA Finals for a 3rd consecutive Season...

As you can see there are a few surprises both good and bad throughout the League... Perhaps the Biggest surprise has been the great play of the Minnesota Timberwolves this Season... Witht the hot start, many figured they would come back down to earth as the Season progressed, but, they haven't let up one bit and are currently the #1 Seed in the Western Conference with their 48-24 record...

Another surprise to many, on the opposite end of the spectrum is the dissapointing Season that the Boston Celtics are having... Currently sitting at 30-43 and 5.5 games out of the 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, its not looking good for the Celtics to make one last run with Kevin Garnet and Paul Peirce... A complete Overhaul is surely soon to be in the Works in Boston...
