  The Sterling Net Point Power Rankings mainly focus on Pro Football. As a big Basketball fan, I thought with the season ending today, I would check out the Point Differentials to see which teams have been most dominant.  Here are the Top 3 teams for Point Differential.

The Chiefs rank 5 th in Net Points averaging 7.2 Net Points while the Eagles rank 7 th with 6.3 Average Net Points (ANP). What this means is that although they win at a high rate, they are not winning by big margins. Plus, when I saw the Bias+ score of 0.1, this game became ultra intriguing. Even Vegas has it close with the Chiefs 2.5 point favorites.   First let’s review the stats of the
