Earl's NBA power ranking · Week 4, 2026

Brooklyn grades out at -16.6 points versus an average team on a neutral floor, 32nd in the league, and that number is still drifting the wrong way at -0.475 week over week despite a soft -4.759 schedule. The market has already punished them, as the -9.93 gap between their rating and the number says books are pricing this team well below its raw grade, which makes them a stay-away rather than a buy-low. This is a firm sell: at roughly 16.5 points worse than average, they are a spread-covering liability against anyone competent.
