This season, many teams in the NBA league have not achieved their expected win rates. For example, the Philadelphia 76ers, with their luxury lineup of Embiid, Paul George, and Maxi, still have a win rate that ranks fourth from the bottom in the East. The 76ers formed this three-giant lineup with the goal of winning the championship, but with Embiid, George, and Maxi taking turns getting injured, it's estimated that even making it to the playoffs will be a challenge. The Minnesota Timberwolves in the West are also a team that has experienced some disappointment. Last season, they were at the top of the Western Conference, but this season, the Timberwolves are finding it difficult to even make it to the playoffs. Officially disbanded! A super dark horse with 1 win and 16 losses, the four giants lineup disintegrates, and the No. 1 pick and No. 2 pick are traded. NBA journalist Evan Sidery reported that the Timberwolves' management is evaluating Julius Randle's trade value to address their inconsistent start. After trading away Towns, the Timberwolves not only lost an important offensive helper but also remain above the second-tier luxury tax line in terms of salary. Therefore, the Timberwolves still need to trade Randle, preferably clearing his contract while completing trades to strengthen the team. Randle is averaging 20.0 points, 6.9 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 0.8 steals this season. Additionally, DiVincenzo joined the Timberwolves as a substitute but has performed poorly, and he has also expressed dissatisfaction. This season, there is another team in the Western Conference that has a…

NBA latest rankings, let's take a look at how your supported team is performing now. The Thunder has been very impressive this season, having only lost 5 games since the start of the season to teams like the Rockets, Nuggets, Warriors, Mavericks, and Spurs. With a record of 23 wins and 5 losses, they are ranked first in the Western Conference. The Rockets' young players are creating their own legend. Last season, they were easy targets for other teams, but now they have transformed rapidly and are growing quickly. With a record of 20 wins and 9 losses, they are ranked second in the Western Conference. The Lakers are not as strong as they used to be. Although they have heavyweights like James and Davis, if both of them cannot play together, their chances of winning are very slim, and they often win games by free throws. Their current situation is very poor, as they have lost multiple times to teams with far inferior strength. They are currently ranked seventh in the Western Conference with a record of 16 wins and 13 losses. The Suns have been in poor form recently. Without Booker, they have suffered three consecutive losses. Durant is unable to carry the team alone, and Beal is not up to the task. No one can step up in critical moments, and even if Durant is exhausted, they still cannot win a game. With a record of 14 wins and 14 losses, they are ranked 11th in the Western Conference. The Cavaliers have impressed everyone this season. They…

The Clippers, after defeating the strong team Grizzlies, will return home to face the Warriors. Today, the Warriors have updated their player injury list, which is similar to what Kerr previously revealed about resting Curry for one game in a back-to-back situation. The Warriors have indeed chosen to rest Curry against the Clippers, citing knee tendonitis as the reason. In addition, Draymond Green is also questionable due to a back injury and is unlikely to play. As we analyzed, it seems that the Warriors will definitely rest Curry when facing the Clippers. Next up is another back-to-back, with the Warriors playing the Clippers away and then rushing back home to play the Suns. Which game should Curry rest for between the Clippers and the Suns? I think it would be the Clippers. The Clippers have been on fire recently, with Harden leading the team and turning Powell and Zubac into giants. The team's defense is also very strong with Van Gundy at the helm, and they have already double-killed the Warriors, winning with or without Curry. Considering that playing the Clippers is an away game, it would be difficult for Curry to win even if he played. It would be better to fully prepare for the Suns, especially since it's at the Warriors' home court. The Suns have not been in good form recently, with Booker continuing to rest. From the Warriors' perspective, the Suns are an easy target to handle. Of course, the Clippers also have their fair share of injuries. The official injury list for the game against…

Currently, the Los Angeles Lakers are in trouble. The Lakers have not been doing well recently. Key players are not performing well, and the defense is a mess, resulting in seven losses in the past nine games. Just like in our domestic CBA league, there is a team that has encountered a similar situation. A team that was once highly anticipated, but several key players were not in good form on the court, constantly making mistakes, and not being proactive in defense. This led to their defeat in several games, leaving fans quite disappointed. This is very similar to the current situation of the Lakers, where player issues have made the team's performance less than ideal. The Los Angeles Lakers management found that they must adjust the lineup through trades. We say that the Lakers often appear in this kind of situation that relies on trades to adjust the lineup. Why? Taking this season's offseason as an example, they hardly adjusted the lineup at all. You say that some teams in our domestic CBA league are also like this. Just like a previous team, there were no major moves during the offseason, and the results were not ideal after the new season started. It was only then that they discovered problems with the lineup and had to try to change the situation through various trades. The Lakers are now in a similar situation. On Friday, local time in the United States, according to American media reporter Bill Simmons, the Lakers should trade Anthony Davis. Well, this news is really surprising!…

The Grizzlies suffered a crushing defeat, losing by 51 points. Is this making people anxious, or has it finally made them realize something? According to American journalist Siegel, the Warriors are planning to trade three young players from their team: Kuminga, Moody, and Bjelica. If the Warriors had this idea during the summer offseason this year, Marquinhos would have already brought his talent to the Golden State. Speaking of Bjelica, everyone originally had high hopes for him, thinking he could perform well. This season, he's in his second year, but unexpectedly, he's not performing as well as his rookie season. In his rookie season, he averaged 9.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists, with a shooting percentage of 45.4% and a three-point percentage of 38.5%. But this season, so far, he's only averaging 8.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.5 assists, with a shooting percentage of 39.6% and a three-point percentage of 25.8%. Recently, a brave journalist bluntly stated, "Bjelica hasn't reached the level to be a rotational player yet, the Warriors should bench him and not let him play." American media NBA Memes once mocked Bjelica, saying, "The Warriors actually gave up on George and Marquinhos for him." I have to tell you something, a few days ago, that fake news outlet NBA Centel posted a dynamic saying, "If Bjelica doesn't improve his basketball skills, he'll be kicked out of the Warriors." Then, Draymond Green secretly liked this post... So, Bjelica, who was once a darling, has now become a nuisance to everyone. The Warriors are planning to trade him…

In the 2024-25 season, the young Houston Rockets have shown tremendous progress. This team was once a rebuilding and struggling squad just a few years ago, but in a short span of time, the Rockets have finally gotten back on track with their rebuild. Last season, under the leadership of new head coach Udoka, the Rockets managed to bring their win rate back to 50%, just a step away from making it into the playoff play-in tournament. This season, the Rockets have made even further strides, with an even better record. So far this new season, the Rockets have achieved a record of 20 wins and 9 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference. For a young rebuilding team, such significant progress is heartwarming. Of course, while the Rockets' current record is commendable, whether they can maintain it until the end of the season remains uncertain. The team still has certain shortcomings, one of which is the lack of a true core player capable of delivering in critical moments. The young players on the Rockets are all very talented, but none of them possess the ability to become the mainstay of a team. To find their core, the Rockets may need to achieve this through major trades or free-agent signings. According to previous reports, the Rockets were once very keen on trading for Suns veteran star Kevin Durant. However, obtaining a player of Durant's caliber is quite challenging. Additionally, the Rockets are also keeping an eye on the movements of stars from other teams in the league. In recent days,…
