The Western Conference rankings are basically determined?schedule analysisThe Nuggets missed the first place, and the Lakers and Suns may achieve each other!

After today's game, there is 1 game left in the regular season, in this case, I didn't expect the competition in the West to be very fierce, today the Thunder and the Timberwolves both won, while the Nuggets lost, so the Nuggets fell to the third position, the Thunder rose to the first, and now their three teams have the same record, that is to say, the last game of the regular season will determine the first place in the West, which is also the first time in the history of the league.

In addition to the top three in the West, the competition for sixth and seventh in the West is also very fierce, the Pelicans won the Warriors today, but the Suns also won the Kings, and now the Suns are still 1 win behind the Pelicans, which means that if the Pelicans can't win the last game, and the Suns win, they may fall into the play-offs. In addition, the Lakers, Warriors and Kings in 8-10 places in the West, after the Lakers won today, they finished to eighth, while the Kings and Warriors lost, the Kings ranked ninth and the Warriors tenth.

If the Lakers can win the final game, then they will lock up the eighth position, and if they lose, the other two teams will win and they will fall back to eighth, in which case they will also need to play the last game to determine the final standings, so what will be the final standings in the West?

The first, fourth and fifth are determined

In today's Mavericks vs. Pistons game, the Mavericks directly let the duo rotate, and Kidd also said that Doncic and Irving will not return in the regular season, and the Mavericks' last game in the regular season is against the Thunder, as long as the Thunder win the last game, they are the first in the West, as a young army, they must want more playoff advantages, so the Thunder won the remnants of the Mavericks is not a big problem, not surprisingly they locked the first position in the West.

And after the Mavericks lost today, they have no chance to overtake the Clippers, in this case, the Clippers are also locked in fourth, and the Mavericks are locked in fifth, the Clippers in the last regular season game against the Rockets, they will most likely not let the core play, after all, the core is still injured, and according to Tyronn Lue, whether the small card can play in the series G1 is not yet certain.

The Timberwolves vs. the Suns are key

In the case of the first in the West, to be honest, I think the Nuggets will also let go of the last game, they can no longer reach the first, as the defending champions, they are ranked the same everywhere, after all, no matter how they lose, they are still the top three in the West, as long as the core is healthy, the team is still the biggest favorite to win the championship, but the interesting thing is that the Nuggets' last game against the Grizzlies, that is, even if the Nuggets are not on the core lineup, the team has a chance to win.

Therefore, the game between the Timberwolves and the Suns will directly determine the pattern of the West, the Timberwolves will welcome back Towns, they must want to keep the second position, the team's goal this season is to win, and the Suns want to win the game to hit the sixth position in the West, if the Suns defeat the Timberwolves in the end, then the Timberwolves will fall to third, and the Suns have hope to rise to sixth, because the Lakers have no way back.

Lakers make the Suns?

Today, the Suns have achieved the Lakers and helped the Lakers reach the top eight, and now the Lakers' best result this season is eighth, so if they can win the next game, they will lock the eighth ranking, and the Lakers will challenge the Pelicans in the last game, James still has a lot of experience in playing the Pelicans, I feel that Zion is afraid of him, and the Pelicans still lack Ingram, the Lakers have a chance to help the Suns rise to sixth, and they are also helping themselves.

The final battle between the Pelicans and the Lakers, who can win, will lock a spot, the Lakers will lock up the eighth place when they win, and win two play-off opportunities, the Pelicans win is to lock the sixth, if it is the sixth Nuggets they will most likely face, it will not be fun, although Varland is very good, but in the face of Mr. Joo's ability to attack, the Pelicans are likely to not be able to withstand it, but if the Suns meet the Nuggets or, this round of the series will be very exciting.

The Warriors are basically hopeless to make it to the eighth

After today's loss, the Warriors fell to the tenth position, even if they win the next game, they need both the Kings and the Lakers to lose, he can rise to the eighth position, and the King's last game is against the Trail Blazers, which means that the Warriors are basically hopeless in the top eight, in this case, they may choose the last game to swing, anyway, they are all ninth or tenth ranking, and staying healthy may be the most important thing.

So on the whole, the Thunder is basically determined, the Nuggets are likely to be second, the Timberwolves are third, the fourth Clippers and the fifth Mavericks have also been determined, the Suns are very hopeful to reach sixth, the Lakers have a good chance to lock the top eight, and the Warriors will most likely be tenth.
