On January 30, Beijing time, the NBA regular season was in full swing, and the NBA played 12 games today, and the latest NBA rankings were officially released after these games. The Lakers lost to the Rockets in today's game, and the Rockets established a big lead early in this game, although in the fourth quarter of the game the Lakers once saw a reversal opportunity, but unfortunately Reaves hit the iron at a critical moment, in this case, the Rockets stabilized the situation and opened the score again, but in today's game, the Jazz also lost to the Nets by a big score, so after this game, the Lakers are still ranked ninth in the West, the Jazz is ranked tenth in the West, and the Rockets are ranked eleventh in the West, The Nets are in 10th place in the East.
However, the current Lakers are really obsessed, in fact, there are indeed flaws in the current Lakers' lineup, but the biggest flaw of the Lakers now should be Hamm, after all, Hamm's coaching ability on the court is too poor, especially when the team's lineup has problems, Ham can't make changes to make the Lakers quite passive, but in this case, the Lakers still want to help the team get out of the predicament through trading, but in fact, even if the Lakers get better players, but Ham's coaching is still so bad, Then the Lakers may not be able to get out of the predicament, after all, Ham is too different from other head coaches, and it doesn't matter if he can't call a timeout in time on the court, seeing that the team is very passive in judging penalties, Ham is still indifferent on the court.
In today's game, the Timberwolves successfully defeated the Thunder, the Nuggets also successfully defeated the Bucks in the game, and the Clippers lost to the Cavaliers in the game. Because the Clippers lost too much before, although the current Clippers are slowly improving their position, the Clippers are still far from the first place in the West, but now the Timberwolves, Nuggets, and Thunder are competing for the first place in the West, after all, the current Timberwolves are only 1 win ahead of the Thunder, so it is really hard to say who can come to the first place in the West next.
At the same time, in today's game, the Knicks, Celtics, Suns, Kings, Wizards, Mavericks, and Trail Blazers defeated the Hornets, Pelicans, Heat, Grizzlies, Spurs, Magic, and 76ers respectively, and after these games, the Knicks are fourth in the East, the Celtics are first in the East, the Suns are sixth in the West, the Kings are fifth in the West, the Wizards are fourteenth in the East, the Mavericks are seventh in the West, the Trail Blazers are fourteenth in the West, the Hornets are thirteenth in the East, the Pelicans are eighth in the West, and the Heat are seventh in the East, the Grizzlies are 13th in the West, the Spurs are 15th in the West, the Magic are eighth in the East, and the 76ers are third in the East. After this game, the Warriors should also be lucky.
The Grizzlies actually had a chance to beat the Kings in today's game, but unfortunately because of the poor performance in the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies still suffered a reversal in the end, and in this case, the Warriors temporarily stabilized their position, otherwise if the Grizzlies continue to win, it is difficult to say whether they can keep their position in the current state of the Warriors. However, the next game Warriors will play against the 76ers, at this time it is not easy for the Warriors to win, although the 76ers are back-to-back, but Embiid did not play in the game against the Trail Blazers, so tomorrow's back-to-back games Embiid will not have a physical impact if he returns, and Embiid really plays, then with the Warriors' bad inside, it is very difficult for them to win, but now the Warriors have no way back, they still want to make the playoffs, Then the Warriors will have to work hard to win.
