NBA Standings

NBA Standings adds the ability to display the standings for a conference of the National Basketball Association (NBA) on your blog via a sidebar widget or template tag. This is ideal for team fan blogs who want to show how their team is doing in the standings. You can also highlight your team in the standings.

Standings are derived from an XML file published daily at erikberg.com. The XML is saved to your WordPress settings and parsed from there to display on your blog.

Version 1.0 is derived from the same codebase as MLB Standings 2.0.3.
