Chapter 706: Reconstruction and Fall
With Yi Jianlian playing at the top of the league at the No. 4 position, the entire Knicks team has also found their own defensive system, and they have successfully returned to the first place in the East with unabated offensive firepower.
Behind them is the Miami Heat, who have failed in the playoffs twice in a row, and have not even touched the floor of the Finals, the entire Heat team has been exceptionally low-key this year, and they can't see any bad lace news off the court, and on the court, the Heat team, which has run in very well, is the same as last year, playing very dominantly, but this season for them, there is a very unfavorable news that Wade's state has declined a little, He transformed into a second-in-command last year in order for LeBron James to play better, but this year his state can really only become a second-in-command, the good news is that LeBron James is gradually playing better, he is very dominant, which also makes the Heat team currently ranked in such a position.
The third place in the East is the Pacers, they appeared in the league as a dark horse last season, but in the middle of the season because of the injury reimbursement of the star Granger again, their overall combat effectiveness declined, and then there was no sound, but what everyone didn't expect is that after losing the star of the house, this team actually grew stronger than last year, from the current situation, they obviously found a new core, Paul George after playing a famous role in the playoffs last year, this season completely exploded, He suddenly became one of the best small forwards in the league, and it was his explosion that allowed the entire league to witness the rise of the Pacers.
In fourth place is the Nets, after losing to the New York Knicks, the Nets finally showed some turnaround in the run-in, and the whole run-in went up a notch, which allowed them to sit firmly in the top four positions in the East.
It's just that judging from the current situation, although they have a luxurious lineup, it is an indisputable fact that Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett's form has declined, coupled with their own problems, I am afraid that there is no hope of breaking out of the East this season, but there is no problem in returning to the playoffs.
Of course, in the eyes of many Nets fans, as long as they can make the playoffs, these old guys will surprise them with their rich experience, and there is a saying, never underestimate the heart of a champion!
They believe this year's Nets are the Rockets of the year.
Judging from the current ranking of the top four in the East, there are teams that have successfully completed the rebuild and officially risen, such as the Pacers, who have been ranked in the top four in the East for two consecutive years in this period, and what they have to do now is to accumulate experience in order to find better solutions in the crisis moment of the game, to face some problems that they could not solve!
The Nets can be considered the dark horse team of this year, of course, it can not be not, after this team has assembled a luxury roster, it is predictable that they will play their current record, and fans are not surprised.
There are teams that rise, and naturally there are teams that fall, such as the Bulls, after three consecutive years in the East, they became the bottom four of the top eight in the East this season, and they are in fifth place, for many reasons, the best result for three consecutive years is that they lost some momentum in the first year, and there is also that they have suffered injury problems, and the entire starting lineup is now more or less plagued by injuries, and for the entire Bulls, when their starting lineup is plagued by injuries, Naturally, they will not be able to maintain their dominance.
In addition, there is another team that has fallen is the Magic, they have completely fallen out of the top eight, Howard's departure has a very big impact on the whole team, as long as one Anthony and the newly grown Vucevic do not guarantee that they will be ranked in the top eight in the East.
It is also the embarrassment of the current ranking that makes Anthony's ability to lead the team once again questioned.
That's the situation so far in the east, and there have been some unexpected changes in the west.
First of all, the first position in the West was secured by the Thunder, and the departure of James Harden did not make this team have any problems, but Kevin Durant and Westbrook became more and more lethal after the baptism of the Finals, which also made the two of them have the nickname of "King Bomb Combination".
The second-ranked team has surprised many fans, the Spurs have secured this position, and everyone did not expect that the Spurs, who have been "down" for two consecutive years, have not lost their sharpness this year, they are still very stable, which also makes many fans sigh that this team has "three carriages" and there will be no problems.
In third place is the Denver Nuggets.
This team did not have any big stars after Anthony's departure, but their overall combat effectiveness was extremely strong, and George Carr's "civilian philosophy" was minimized in this team.
It can be said that this team can be called the biggest dark horse team of the season.
It's just that their current limelight is not favored by experts, and the reason is very simple, the "civilian team" has no future, take this Nuggets team as an example, they lack a breaking point at a critical moment, which will make them embarrassed when they encounter the same situation in the playoffs.
Fourth place is the Los Angeles Clippers!
The team, which had Chris Paul last year, took off this year, turning Los Angeles into an "empty city", and Griffin and Jordan Jr. have also become the league's hottest interior players with Paul's help, and they will have one or several wonderful top 10 performances in every game.
It's just that this team is still a little short of what everyone expected, originally fans thought that this team would climb directly to the first or second place in the West, after all, this configuration can be said to be perfect on paper, but the result is that I don't know where something is missing.
There is also a dark horse team in the West is the Warriors, the Golden State Warriors are currently ranked sixth in the West, and the ranking is not very high, but Stephen Curry's growth has caused some movement in the league, he has unknowingly become a point guard above the first line, and at the same time, the rookies selected by the entire Warriors in recent years have played well, which has made them from a fish belly to a playoff-level powerhouse, and it can be seen that their progress is far from stopping.
