On March 26, Beijing time, the first heat in the East lost to the Knicks, the East was completely chaotic, the top four in the East were only one win apart at most; today's Heat crashed 15-38 in the last quarter, was reversed and suffered three consecutive defeats; after the Heat lost, the East was chaotic into a pot of porridge, the Heat East First was in danger, do they all want to deliberately avoid the Nets?
The top four in the East are the Heat 47 wins and 27 losses in the East, the Bucks 46 wins and 27 losses in the East second, the 76ers 45 wins 27 losses in the East third place and the Celtics 46 wins and 28 losses in the East fourth; the current First East Heat are only 0.5 games ahead of the Bucks, and the Bucks are only 0.5 games away from the 76ers and the Green Army.
Did the Heat's three-game losing streak also turn into a pseudo-strong team? According to statistic from the US media StatMuse, the Heat only scored a total of 67 points in the fourth quarter of the past three games, while letting the opponent score 108 points, equivalent to 41 points in the last three games; in the previous two games, the Heat scored 24 points (against the Warriors) and 28 points (against the 76ers) in the last two games.
At present, the top four in the East are more fiercely contested than in the West, and which team will win the first place in the East and thus gain home advantage in the playoffs is still unknown, I am afraid that it will not be determined until the end of the season; there are also great variables in the battle between the fifth and sixth places in the East, the Nets are ranked eighth in the East with 38 wins and 35 losses, and Durant and Irving may lead the team to a crazy counterattack.
In contrast, in the West, the Suns have locked in the first place in the West ahead of schedule, and the Grizzlies are 3 wins ahead of the Warriors and have locked up the playoffs, but the Timberwolves and Nuggets are fiercely competing for sixth place in the West, and the Lakers and Pelicans' playoff qualification competition is also very fierce, and the next game is the key card battle between the two teams.
