For the 2009-10 season, we here at Docksquad Sports will be doing a weekly power rankings in collaboration with our friends over at Cavalier Attitude. Starting today, we'll give you our take on all 30 teams in the NBA, and we will rank them every Wednesday as decided by our very own NBA committee.

The committee consists of myself (Vik Chokshi), Suman Vellanki (also from DSS), as well as Amar Panchmatia and Rahul Phanindra from Cavalier Attitude. Teams will be ranked for their performance through last Sunday, and going forward, the previous week's ranking will be listed after these initial rankings.

We have tip-off...

1. Los Angeles Lakers (2-1)

A loss in October is nothing to get upset about, as the Lakers are still fresh from unwrapping their championship rings and were missing All-Star Pau Gasol. Still the best unless someone else shows flashes of being better. (AP)

2. Boston Celtics (3-0)

  • In my opinion, the Celtics should be ranked...
