Bulls 4 consecutive losses still ranked 1st in the East, but the Heat narrowly beat the Raptors game, completely eliminated the gap, the current Bulls for the Heat only have the advantage of the game, their win difference is 0, and today's loss of the Nets is very regrettable, the Nets and the Bulls, the Heat's win difference is 0.5, if the Nets can win today, maybe they can return to the 1st place in the East, unfortunately Durant is missing the game, Harden also has to learn how to lead the team to win, because the next 13 games the Nets will play many away games.
Being able to beat the Nets, the Cavaliers' performance is remarkable, and now the Cavaliers are also winning 5 consecutive games to surpass the Bucks, rising to the 4th place in the East, and the Bucks led by Alphabet Brother have suffered 2 consecutive defeats. The 76ers also lost to the Wizards today, Kuzma's performance was too amazing, the Wizards were able to return to the top 8 in the East, the 76ers fell to the 6th in the East, and the Raptors lost after being overtaken by the Wizards to fall to the 9th in the East, but their win difference is not too big, and the competition behind is still very fierce.
The Clippers won to temporarily retain their 8th place in the West, and the Suns continued to win and win 4 consecutive games, widening the win gap with the Warriors to 3, and the real cliff-like led the league no. 1. The current competitiveness of the Suns is indeed stable, even if they lose a game, they can also adjust quickly, compared to the Warriors' current predicament, the Suns may continue to extend the lead, unless Curry's comeback can be immediate, help the Warriors out of the haze and win consecutively.
In addition, the gap between the Grizzlies and the Warriors has also narrowed, today the Grizzlies defeated the No. 1 Bulls in the East, and Morant's miraculous performance led the team to stabilize the No. 3 in the West, while narrowing the win gap to only 1.5 wins with the Warriors.
The Lakers are small and strong, James and Wei Shao played a very good performance, tough defeated the Jazz, the Lakers record 22 wins and 22 losses, the win rate of 50%, to maintain their 7th ranking in the West, However, the Clippers and Timberwolves are only 0.5 wins away from the Lakers, the Lakers still can't relax themselves, because the Lakers are still the list of play-off teams, if they can't get the top 6 rankings in the West, the Lakers can't get the through-train tickets for the Western Playoffs, and now who are 55-open Lakers, it is indeed more hanging, of course, for James is still full of confidence, James who opens the "post-season Zhan" mode should be able to bring the Lakers into the Western Playoffs, because the teams that the Lakers need to compete with are nothing more than nuggets and loners The biggest gap is the 3-win difference, and the Lakers still have a chance to hit the top 6 in the West.
