Super Heavy Artillery
Vol 3 Chapter 421: Alliance situation
Before the Thunder avenged the Lone Ranger, with the Lakers defeating the Kings, all NBA games in 2018 ended. After a month of chasing after you, the alliance has changed a lot compared with the previous month.
In the entire league, the Thunder still topped the league with a record of 30 wins and 5 losses at the end of December. Moreover, they are the only team with a record of 30 wins. This did not surprise people. The defending champion is not only strong, but the stable state shown is the most terrifying. Moreover, every time they lose, they can always adjust their state in time and find a way to win. Since the beginning of the season two and a half months, the Thunder have never experienced a losing streak.
In the West, in addition to the Thunder leading the way, the Nuggets and Warriors are the second echelon. The former's record of 26 wins and 9 losses is slightly higher than the Warriors' negative record, securing his second position. This season, the Nuggets really broke out their fighting power. Jokic revitalized the team, Muller, Harris and other players played very well. After the Warriors struggled in November, they slowly stabilized. For them, they only need to play to their normal level, and they are the Thunder's biggest contender.
After , the Lakers, Clippers, Trail Blazers, Spurs, Rockets, including the ninth to eleventh Kings, Grizzlies, and Jazz, are the third tier. This month, the Lakers and Rockets continue to climb the rankings. The two teams finally got on the right track with the outbreak of two James. The decline of the Grizzlies is something that everyone knows. They are like this every year, starting like a tiger. The Jazz did have some problems, but basically they can still be controlled. In these eight teams, the competition is quite fierce. The fourth Lakers in the West, negative; the eleventh Jazz, negative. The biggest win difference is no more than 3! Basically, the remaining five spots in the playoffs this season belong to these teams.
The Lone Ranger, Timberwolves, and Pelicans at the end are the fourth echelon. From the record point of view, whether it is the loss of the Lone Ranger and Timberwolves to the loss of the Pelicans, there is a chance to make a hit in the playoffs. But it is only possible! If these three teams do not continue to explode for a period of time, they will basically be unable to compete with the first few teams.
At the end is the hard-core Western Suns. 9 wins and 26 losses, the only team in the West without double figures. It is basically certain that for the Phoenix people, this is another season for the No. 1 pick.
Of course, the Suns' record is not the worst in the league. In the East, the Hawks, Bulls, and Knicks all have the same record as them. The knights are even worse than them. This is so embarrassing! This year's Cavaliers, last year's Lakers. The only difference is LeBron James!
Teams that are slightly better than the Hawks, Bulls, Knicks, and Cavaliers, the Magic and Wizards, do not see any chance to make the playoffs this season. The two-and-a-half-month schedule has passed, the Magic lost and the Wizards lost.
The four teams that are better than the Pistons, Hornets, Heat, and Nets all have 17 wins. The Pistons played one less game and ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference with a loss. The Nets played one more game and ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference. The Hornets and the Heat are both negative. Because of the direct relationship between victory and defeat, the Hornets are seventh and the Heat are eighth. Basically, the last three places in the Eastern Conference playoffs this season are in these teams.
The Pacers, 76ers and Celtics are the second-tier teams in the Eastern Conference. The record is not high or low, and they are all hovering around 23 wins. It depends on who can finally compete for the top four and have more playing advantages. Here, the Pacers are really unexpected. The performance of Oladipo and Sabonis, especially the latter, really opened people's eyes. Since winning the most improved player last season, Audi has been the star of Indiana. It is natural to play well. Little Sabonis has gradually become the team's inside core this season, quite the style of the old Sabonis. As a result, when people are discussing the deal two years ago, no one ever questioned the Pacers management's vision. Judging from the current situation, the deal is obviously a win-win cooperation.
The Celtics are a bit disappointing. As the most promising Eastern team before the start of the season, their performance is indeed not good, or even not qualified. The team's distribution of ball rights and the conflict between Irving and young players are more serious problems than the team's poor running-in. How to roll these outstanding players into a rope and maximize the value of all the chips in your hand~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is a huge test for Stevenson. But judging from the current situation, he has not handled it well.
The Bucks and Raptors are the two teams leading the Eastern Conference. At the last moment of this month, the Bucks finally surpassed the Raptors under Antetokounmpo's rampage, and became No. 1 in the Eastern Conference with a record of 26 wins and 9 losses. He himself also won the Eastern Conference's best player in December with an average of 25.6 points, 12.5 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game. Antetokounmpo's performance reminds people of LeBron James. Although he does not have the kind of super dominance over other teams in the East. However, in the Bucks, he is playing the role of James. In addition to shooting a little worse, other points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks are all ranked first on the team.
The Raptors did not play well this month! After closing last month, they are only half a win behind the Thunder, ranking second in the league. But in December, that invincible rhythm was cut off. The record of 7 or 8 losses that month is not as good as the Nets behind! Leonard and Lowry played well and at least played their worth. But the other players have a lot of ups and downs. Varanjonas, who is inside, can do some hard work, but in other respects it is indeed worse. If the Raptors want to fight for a championship this season, the Raptors management still have to think of something.
Basically, as the season progresses, the gap between strong and weak teams has widened. The performance of each team gradually stabilized. There are particularly disappointing teams, such as the Wizards; there are also very surprising teams, such as the Clippers. But this is also the most attractive part of a professional league. Everything is incredible, as it should be.
