Beijing time on January 11, the NBA's regular season schedule has been close to half, but the team's record can be described as some people are happy and some are sad, this morning, the NBA also officially announced the latest issue of the team strength list, let's take a look!
1. Golden State Warriors
The Warriors recently successfully ushered in the return of the second boss Thompson, and Thompson's performance after his comeback exceeded everyone's imagination, not only three points accurate, but also staged a separate dunk in the game, making fans more look forward to his performance in the subsequent games. At present, the Warriors' record is the same as the Suns' record is 30 wins and 9 losses, but with Thompson's return, the Warriors are very hopeful that in the following games, they will shake off the Suns and continue to lead the league.
2. Memphis Grizzlies
When it comes to the most amazing team of the season, you may think of the Warriors and Bulls, but there is another team that also impresses everyone, and that is the Grizzlies. Under Morant's leadership, the Grizzlies have recently won a nine-game winning streak, during which the Grizzlies defeated the Clippers, Suns, Nets, and beat the Lakers twice, and their current record has reached 28-14, ranking fourth in the West and only 0.5 wins behind the Jazz. The current Grizzlies have become the most popular team in the NBA, and at the same time the most watchable team.
3. Phoenix Suns
The Suns continue their good form from last season this season, with the warriors now having the same record of 30 wins and 9 losses. The Suns have been able to achieve such a good record thanks to their performance on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, the Suns can rank third in the league in points per game, and their defensive efficiency is second in the league. Recently, many of the Suns' core players have been released from quarantine, which may help them surpass the Warriors.
4. Chicago Bulls
The Bulls, led by DeRozan, have also recently won a nine-game winning streak, and although they lost to the Lone Rangers in the last game, they still finish first in the East with a record of 26 wins and 11 losses, and are two wins ahead of the Second Place Nets in the East. Caruso will also make a comeback in the near future, and the Bulls' next game is still looking forward to.
The Nets, which have previously been regarded as the favorites to win the championship, are only ranked 8th in the strength list in this issue. The Nets' recent performance has been a bit difficult, losing to the Grizzlies and Bucks, and the last game was defeated by the Blazers, and they also won very hard against the Spurs and Pacers. Although Irving has returned, the team still has no substantive changes, or very dependent on Durant's personal play, and if it continues like this, the Nets are a bit dangerous.
The Lakers due to the lack of thick eyebrows this two-in-command, their recent performance is also unsatisfactory, although James has scored 30+ high points in many consecutive games, but the team still loses more than wins, and the Lakers only rank 17th in the strength list in this issue.
The full list is as follows:
1-10: Warriors, Grizzlies, Suns, Bulls, Jazz, Heat, Bucks, Nets, 76ers, Lone Rangers
11-20: Cavaliers, Raptors, Hornets, Nuggets, Timberwolves, Clippers, Lakers, Greenshirts, Wizards, Knicks
21-30: Eagles, Pacers, Spurs, Trail Blazers, Kings, Pelicans, Thunder, Rockets, Pistons, Magic
