If the NBA season were a boxing match, we’d be in the final round. Standing dazed and confused, dripping blood, and soaked in sweat, some teams just need to keep their feet while others need to deliver a knockout punch. Derrick Rose is being held together with bungee cords and scotch tape, while the Kobe-less Lakers seem to be, dare we say, hitting their stride with No. 24 on the bench. The Western Conference playoff picture is about as clear as a tomato can’s spit bucket, and as the final bell sounds, the Knicks are relying on their Heavyweight (Carmelo Anthony) to win the belt. Let’s get ready to rumble in this week’s Complex Power Rankings.
