The NBA season has entered a white-hot stage, and the teams have launched fierce battles, and the latest power rankings have been revealed. The Celtics managed to climb back to the top, and Doncic's heroic performance and the Clippers' surge were the highlights of the week. Here's a detailed report.
Celtic: Unbeaten overlord at home.
The NBA's latest power rankings have been revealed, and the Celtics welcome good news. They won all four of their matches in last week's tournament and managed to climb back to the top. Even more remarkable, the Celtics have maintained a staggering 14-0 record in their home TD Garden, making them undefeated this season. Such an outstanding performance shocked the entire league, and the Celtics are no longer just the king of Eastern teams, but the strength of the whole league.
Doncic: The pain is undiminished.
On the other hand, the Dallas Mavericks' Doncic showed a tenacious fighting spirit in this week's game. Despite the injury during the game, Doncic was undaunted and still played a good game. In the fierce battle against the Los Angeles Lakers, Doncic scored 11 points and 5 assists in the second quarter, and started a fierce scoring competition with Zhan Mei. Even after being broken by Davis in the game, Doncic still showed fearlessness and tenacity on the court. Such a performance is undoubtedly an encouragement to the fans, and it also injects strong combat power into the Mavericks.
Clippers: Team strength is on the map.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers were also a highlight of the week. They managed to soar eight places and currently have a record of 15 wins and 10 losses. Over the past few games, the Clippers have shown a strong team and the team has played well overall. In the competitive Western Conference, the Clippers' rise to prominence has made other teams take this menacing opponent seriously. This kind of resonant performance of the whole team not only reflects the tacit understanding of the team, but also lays the groundwork for future games.
Timberwolves: The lead is unshakable.
In the power rankings, the Timberwolves are still at the top of the rankings. They won both of their games last week by a wide margin, with a 19-5 record. The Timberwolves are leaving no other team in the dust, and they are leading the league in an unshakable manner. Whether facing the Mavericks or the Pacers, the Timberwolves have shown great dominance. The opponent seems to be unable to resist in front of them, and this team is gradually becoming the biggest dark horse of the season.
Nuggets: Slipping highs, still unstoppable.
The Nuggets, who had a good performance last year, slipped to fifth place this week with a 17-10 record. In the past three games, although the Nuggets have a record of 2 wins and 1 loss, they lost by 1 point against the Thunder, which can be described as a pity. Despite both Hardaway Jr. and Gervais playing with injuries, they still performed well, with Gervais scoring 19 points with a right knee contusion, showing excellent on-court handling. Although the Nuggets have slipped down the power rankings, their strength is still not to be underestimated, and fans should expect them to quickly emerge in the next games.
76ers: The winning streak doesn't stop.
With Embiid at the helm, the 76ers are on the right track. They've won all of their last six games and spent almost the entire fourth quarter in garbage time. The 76ers currently have an 18-7 record and are third in the power rankings. In the last few victories, they have not only won against their opponents, but also won by big ones, showing great dominance. The team's chemistry and lead left the opposition in the dust and exhilarated the fans.
The rankings of the 11th to 30th teams in the power rankings have been announced.
The 11th to 20th places in the power list are the Los Angeles Lakers, New Orleans Pelicans, Indiana Pacers, Cleveland Cavaliers, New York Knicks, Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns, Brooklyn Nets, Miami Heat, and Golden State Warriors.
