With most teams playing about 10 games so far, there is enough of a sample size to present a stat-based, objective power rankings.
With seven players averaging at least nine points a game, the 76ers have had incredible balance and an average margin of victory of nearly 14 points.
In order to determine our team rankings, we calculate the difference between a team's own FIC per game and their opponents' FIC for the entire season.
The FIC is a single statistical measurement that encompasses things such as scoring efficiency, rebounding, blocked shots, etc. Its purpose is to combine the box score into one statistic, both on a team level and for players.
