The NBA has seen another exhilarating week of basketball and the Northwest Division is the same way.

Another exciting week of NBA basketball is in the books, with multiple movements on this week’s power rankings. While Denver and Minnesota continue to go through their own issues, teams like Portland continue to ramp up the intensity as most teams finish their first 10 games.

The Wolves have begun to look better, while the Thunder have begun to slip from their impressive 6-1 start. Even with their recent struggles, Westbrook continues to show the true MVP candidate that he is, while Damian Lillard has made a small case as well. If the season ended today, three out of the five teams in the Northwest Division would make the NBA playoffs.

Who is now the best team in the division, and who is the worst?
