The Thunder are on a six-game winning streak, and the Northwest Division still dominates the West. The Lakers lost to the Mavericks, the Suns narrowly beat the Warriors, let's take a look at the latest rankings in the West:
The Timberwolves are firmly in first place, and they faced the Eastern Conference powerhouse 76ers, and won under the leadership of Edwards, who scored 31 points, not only won by 13 points, but also limited the opponent to no more than 100 points, and performed strongly. The Timberwolves have won three in a row, moving to 11-3 and ranking first in the West.
The Thunder won 6 consecutive wins, so far this season, the Timberwolves and Thunder from the Northwest Division have performed very well, and now the Thunder has beaten the Bulls, Alexander has 40 points, 12 assists, 5 rebounds, 3 blocks and 1 steal, and Holmgren has 18 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks, both of whom have performed very well. The Thunder are youthful and energetic, full of impact on the court, and their performance this season is worth looking forward to.
The Suns beat the Warriors at home, winning five in a row this season while beating their opponents. The Suns beat the Warriors on the road in the first game of the season, and now they meet again, Paul is sent off by Foster, Durant and Booker are both playing well, and the Suns get the victory and completely come out of the previous losing streak. For the Suns, the previous fluctuations in the record were mainly related to the uneven personnel, Booker and Beal were injured and suspended, and now they are gradually on the right track.
The Lakers lost to the Mavericks, if they can beat the opponent before the game, the Lakers will win the 10th game of the season, overtaking the opponent Mavericks to rise to the top four in the West, but they unfortunately lost, James and Brother Thick Eyebrow's Zhan Mei combination lost to Doncic and Irving's Eastern European combination, missing 4 consecutive wins. In the last quarter, the crazy Lakers once overtook the score, but unfortunately James made a mistake at the critical moment, and at the same time, the final equalizer was not thrown, and the Lakers lost to the Mavericks and missed the winning streak.
The Clippers won 3 consecutive victories, after the previous consecutive losses after Harden joined, the defeat of the Rockets became a turning point, and now the two games against the Spurs, the Clippers have also won 3 consecutive wins. At critical moments, the Clippers can score and stand up There are still a lot of superstars, Leonard's key shots, Harden and Paul George's two free throws, are the key to the Clippers' double kill of the Spurs. If the run-in continues, the Clippers led by Tyronn Lue are definitely capable of attacking the NBA championship.
The Spurs are at the bottom of the rankings, they have suffered 10 consecutive defeats, from the first 5 games and 3 wins, a good performance, to now 10 consecutive games to lose, for the Spurs, although they have talent, but they still need to be tempered, Wembanyama and others still need to continue to work hard in the league. The next opponents of the Spurs are the Warriors and Nuggets, and it will be difficult to end the losing streak.
