On March 25, Beijing time, after the New Orleans Pelicans defeated the Chicago Bulls, the team ranked against the Lakers to come to ninth in the West. As a result, the current competition for the Western Conference playoffs is also very fierce, the Lakers, Pelicans and Spurs will compete for the last two places, but interestingly, the Warriors are likely to become a key factor in the three teams competing for the playoffs.
According to the schedule, the Warriors will play the Last Three Games of the Season, starting with the Lakers on April 8, spurs on April 10, and pelicans on April 11. Therefore, because the competition between the Lakers, Pelicans and Spurs has now entered a white-hot stage, the Warriors' situation against these three teams is likely to affect the ranking to some extent.
Today, the Pelicans are ninth in the West with 31 wins and 42 losses, the Lakers are 10th in the West with 31 wins and 42 losses, and the Spurs are 11th in the West with 29 wins and 44 losses.
In this way, if the Warriors lose to the Spurs and Pelicans successively, and then defeat the Lakers at the same time, then not only will the win gap between the Lakers and the Spurs be further reduced, but the Pelicans will also rank ninth in the West.
For the current situation, netizens have also ridiculed: "Warriors: The fate of the Lakers is in my hands, I can't imagine it!" So, what do you think?
