What were we thinking this past week?

RealGM looks at the growing MVP candidacy of Kevin Garnett in MIN and who is behind it, the sitting stars of the NBA that have returned and those who are still sitting, the city of forgotten lotto picks, and answers the question of whether the Hawks are more serious about trading this offseason than last.

All of that along with the Weekly Power Rankings and the Hot team of the Week (though last week?s teams may warn the new ones against the honor).
