The recent state of the Eastern Conference giants has not been very good, the Bulls have recently suffered a wave of four consecutive losses, the Nets have a record of only 4 wins and 7 losses after Christmas, and the Bucks' record since January is 4 wins and 6 losses. And the boom in injuries to the Bulls and Nets was a bit off guard, and the two teams' home teams, Durant and LaVine, could not achieve a return in the short term, which was also a fatal blow to the team. It was also during this time that the situation of strong west and weak east emerged.
Facing the Bulls, the no. 1 bull in the East, the Grizzlies are even more fiery, as early as the second quarter to achieve a double-digit advantage, reaching 27 points when the point difference is the largest, and Memphis is as hot as ever, winning 12 of the last 13 games. With the Jazz losing, the Grizzlies' record also climbed to third place in the West. The defeated bulls continue to rank first in the East, but the heat behind them is desperately chasing. Also losing today are the Nets and Bucks, even if Harden and Irving have done their jobs, but the team is really weak on the defensive end, the team has slipped to the third place in the East, the Bucks lost to the Eagles, directly fell out of the upper half of the East, which is obviously not what everyone thinks the defending champion looks like.
From the data analysis, there are 4 teams with a winning rate of more than 65% in the West, while the East does not, and the Jazz in the fourth place in the West can also win the top spot in the East, which is really a bit embarrassing for the East. This season, the top four teams in the West face the top four teams in the East, and the winning rate is obviously superior, and it seems to have returned to the situation of the west being strong and the east being weak. The Suns and Warriors teams also have a top record, with more than 70% of the wins leading the first echelon, and the two sides are likely to be potential opponents in the divisional finals. In contrast, the ranking of the East is very tight, and the maximum win difference of the top ten is only 1.5, which means that the victory or defeat of a game will affect the final ranking. In addition, the Pistons and Magic are the two bottom teams in the league, and the end group in the East is difficult to say.
Tomorrow there will be a strong dialogue between the East and west, that is, the recent outstanding performance of the Grizzlies against the defending champion Bucks, Morant and Alphabet Brother, the new generation and the Mesozoic generation, it is waiting to see. It must be said that the Grizzlies' recent schedule is indeed a bit devilish, in addition to the Bucks, the next Nuggets, lone rangers and Jazz are not easy to deal with, it depends on how Morant leads the team out of the sky.
