If we don't care about the scourge of the NBA, who will? The Bleaker Rankings will assess the grotesque each Tuesday.

1. The Knicks. As the great Billy Corgan would say shriek: "You know I'm not dead." Does James Dolan need some garlic, or perhaps a silver bullet? Unicorn blood?

2. Ron Rothstein. "You take it from here, Ron. We're going to sit Dwyane, though. ... I don't know, try the Jason Williams-Chris Quinn smallball lineup! Jeez!"

3. The Pacers. When your $20 million center with bad knees and a worsening disposition is the least of your problems, things suck. I mean, the contracts of Troy Murphy and Mike Dunleavy Jr. are positives for this franchise!

4. Seattle basketball. Not to demean a worthy proposal, but where was Steve Ballmer and his clan of Superfriends last summer? It's not too little, but it is too late.

5. NBA on ABC production crews. Dwyer hit on it Monday, but ... egads. The music choices are awful.

Others receiving votes: Courtside seats in Phoenix; Channing Frye (yes, I'm petty).
