there is a point to be made that you had to go back 12 years to find a great team that lost to a scrub team

You don't have to go back that far. Last year, the Celtics beat the Spurs in San Antonio on March 17.

As mrsister said, it wasn't about finding a great team who lost to a scrub team. I was taking a team viewed as one of the best of all time (not just a "great" team) that lost to scrubs.

Re: Power Rankings
Hey, I almost forgot, over at the InsideHoops forums, they're trying to launch a campaign to vote Walker into the ASG.
