#1 Strong Island
Strong Island is sitting pretty atop the East and West power rankings because they are simply playing the best team basketball out of any team in either conference. Well deserved and well played.
#2 Styl
Styl is playing some smart team basketball in their own right. Stanley is anchoring the middle as he always does, and the team's wing players are providing the perimeter support they need. Styl's got a nice test coming up this Thursday against Strong Island.
#3 Lions
Out of the remaining teams, Lions arguably have the most SABL experience and it's showing on the court. They rarely get rattled and have a good inside-outside game which leads to high percentage shots. When the big fella (Simran) is on the court, they are tough to beat.
#4 24/7
24/7 has plenty of talent and lots of athleticism. They've been winning with hustle and 2nd chance baskets mostly, although their depth has kept them from giving up many leads.
#5 Adrenaline
Adrenaline plays a similar style to 24/7 with their youth and speed, but a lack of superstar talent and depth has hurt their chances in some games. They need more guys to step up and help carry the load.
#6 Force
When their all-star big man, Tarek, shows up to games, they can stay with most teams, but when he's MIA like he was last week, Force can lose to any team. So for now they find themselves towards the bottom of the rankings.
#7 Desert Eagles
Sometimes called the "Dessert" Eagles by teams who have been feasting on them, this squad is still looking for their first actual win in the SABL since they first started up last season. With a match-up against Bulldogs this week, that first "W" has a chance of happening.
#8 Bulldogs
The Bulldogs play with passion, that's for sure. The sooner they come together and get on the same page, the sooner they'll start to win some games. It's not too late to add some more talent before the deadline, but they can do better with what they have.

#1 Strong Island
With 3 teams currently undefeated, its tough to say who deserves the number one spot. This decision comes down to scheduling and opponents. Strong Island has managed to beat the defending champion HUMANS and overcame a 12pt deficit to beat SWAT in OT. Well deserving of a number one spot. Let’s see what happens this week against Hitmen.
#2 Hit-Men
Hitmen fall to number 2. Again it’s a game of schedules and opponents. Hitmen are a seasoned team full of SABL veterans. They know how to play the game. However this may have been different if the Panthers had a full squad in their week 3 matchup. All in all, Hitmen are our number two ranked team. Huge game against number 1 ranked SI this week.
#3 Strictly Biz
Newbies Strictly Biz gets the number 3 spot. They are a dangerous team and play extremely well together. These guys have championship blood and are looking to make some noise in the SABL. However, many say their early easy schedule may have been the reason for an undefeated record. We will have to see how they fair against the SABL elite in weeks to come.
#4 HUMANS
Defending champs, HUMANS, suffered a tough loss in week 1 against SI. However they have now won 2 in a row and look like the HUMANS of old. With a couple new faces, this team looks as dangerous as ever. Top 3 seeds watch out, the HUMANS are back in action.
#5 Titans
Titans grab the number five spot. With a 2-1 record they are still in the mix and one of the elite teams. Although somewhat quiet this year, the Titans still have one of the leagues most potent offenses. Attendance is key for them if they want to make some real noise.
#6 SWAT
The six spot could be a toss up at this point. But again we look at scheduling and opponents. SWAT grabs the six spot. This team had an impressive win against MKA and took SI to overtime. Yet shorthanded, they let up 100 pts to a winless Rukus team. Attendance is key for them, and they need all their bodies if they want to be knows as one of the elites.
#7 Ballers
Ballers end up at 7. We all know what these guys are capable of. However, seems like they aren’t clicking just yet. Notorious for starting off slow, the Ballers find themselves at 1-2. But they still have some of the core from their championship year and a lethal backcourt. Look for these guys to get serious and start racking up the wins.
#8 Panthers
The Panthers find themselves at the 8 spot. They are a deep team and if they play as they have in the past, they will remain one of the most feared teams in the league. However, attendance is also key for them. In order to win they will need all their bodies to show up. Otherwise they will suffer from it.
#9 MKA-NY
MKA-NY has been one of the most competitive teams this year. They have started out with a tough schedule and have not faired well. However this team can run with the best of them. It will be interesting to see how this team plays in the next week. A couple of easy matchups and this team will be right in the mix.
#10 Rukus
Some say that a 100 point effort should send these guys right to the top. But with a 1-2 record and their lone win coming against a shorthanded SWAT team, Rukus will need another few weeks to carve out a solid identity. But what we do know is that this team can score. Tough game against the Panthers this week, can they make it two in a row?
#11 Ravens
Officially the hardest schedule so far has been given to the Ravens. With losses against Titans, SB and SI this team finds themselves at 0-3. However, they have kept it competitive. If they keep playing as they have and tighten up the D, this team can definitely make some strides. They play a winless Red Jags this week and hope to get their first win.
#12 Red Jaguars
Red Jaguars, offshoot of SWAT, have also been dealt a tough schedule. They find themselves at 0-3 and face a winless Ravens team this week. Can they finally put a win in their record? One thing is certain; this team has been getting better week by week. This can be the week where they start to turn things around
