The NBA regular season on February 4 has all ended, and the Western Conference has changed. The Thunder took the lead, and James led the Lakers to beat the Knicks on the road to make a winning streak and chase the Mavericks. The Warriors lost to the Hawks in overtime, and Curry scored a career-high 60 points. The Mavericks lost to the Bucks and were gradually thrown off by the top six. Next, let's take a look at the latest rankings of the West:
The Thunder lead the first echelon, and the current Thunder and Timberwolves have the same record, both 34-15, and the Thunder are currently ranked first, and the Timberwolves are second. The Clippers also lost 15 games, but they played two games less, and the Nuggets finished fourth. So far in the regular season, these four Western teams have performed very well, and the competition for the Western Conference championship in the regular season this season is still fierce.
The Mavericks lost to the Bucks, Doncic cut 40+ data again, but the team did not overtake in the fourth quarter and lost the game. The recent fluctuations in the Mavericks' record are too obvious, in the fiercely competitive West, they are a bit of a tendency to fall behind, since falling out of the top six, they are currently ranked eighth, and now the eighth position is also affected by the Lakers, so if they want to keep the ranking and impact the direct playoff spot, the Mavericks need to work hard.
The Lakers relied on James, Reaves and Russell to defeat the Knicks under the leadership of James, Reaves and Russell. In this way, the Lakers have won two consecutive games, with a record of 26 wins and 25 losses, a winning rate of more than 50%, and a stable ninth position in the West, chasing the Mavericks, 3 wins away from the top six positions in the playoffs, and still have a chance.
The Warriors were very sorry that they lost to the Hawks on the road, and Curry scored 22 points in the fourth quarter and had no choice but to miss a crucial shot. After entering overtime, the Warriors collapsed, and Curry scored 8 points in a row to improve his score to 60 points, which is also Curry's season high, and the second time in his career 60+, after his previous highest score was 62 points. Unfortunately, Curry lost in overtime in his milestone battle, and the Warriors lost in overtime, ending their winning streak and still sitting in 12th place in the West.
The Spurs suffered a heavy defeat in the face of the Cavaliers, losing all the last 4 games, ranking first in the West, and unable to win consecutive home games, which really made Popovich feel helpless.
