Chapter 529 2006~2007 Season Regular Season Ranking for the Month(1/2)
In terms of playoff rankings, let’s look at the Eastern Conference first.
With its stable performance, the Wizards ranked first in the Eastern Conference with a record of 65 wins and 17.
This record has refreshed the Wizards' best record in the history of the team.
McGrady averaged 26.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game, making her one of the popular candidates for the MVP season.
Yao Ming averaged 24.2 points, 11.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.8 blocks per game.
The Celtics ranked second with a record of 61 wins and 21 losses.
After Garnett made a big three-tier lineup, the Celtics made rapid progress and rarely lost.
The victory over the Lakers at the end of the season has made the team's confidence reach an unprecedented level.
The Bulls ranked third with 56 wins and 26 losses.
The biggest "dark horse" in the East this season is the Chicago.
Paul delivered gorgeous statistics of 18.9 points, 11.2 assists and 2.3 steals per game in his second season.
Yi Jianlian also had a stable performance of 17.2 points and 8.8 boards.
In addition, Peja, Hamilton, Chandler, Lasour Butler and other powerful players.
After they got together, they played so well in the second half of the season.
Looking back, it may not be a bad thing for them to fail to get Kobe on the trading deadline.
The Pistons ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference with 52 wins and 30 losses.
Although the loss of the big loan made the team's inside defense inevitably decline, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and the Pistons are still very competitive in the East.
Anthony's performance has also continued to improve, averaging 26.2 points per game this season.
The Magic ranked fifth with 50 wins and 32 losses.
Finley's joining raises the team's cap.
This record is in the past season, and it is definitely in the top half and even the top three.
But the East of this season is destined to be a "devil".
The Raptors ranked sixth with 45 wins and 37 losses.
The Raptors didn't even make the playoffs last season.
But this season, the newly joined Gabayosa showed excellent combat power and perfectly partnered with Bosh.
The mid-season trade was won by Caron Butler, which brought their strength to a higher level.
The Heat ranked seventh with 43 wins and 39 losses.
There are two results in the core lineup of an NBA team that has not changed in several years.
One is like the Warriors in history, and the other is that they have entered a weak period and began to decline in their record, such as the Heat this season.
Riley will take ruthless measures at the trade deadline, which has a lot to do with the Heat's record not advancing and regressing.
After the trade was made by O'Neal Jr., the Heat's record improved slightly compared to the beginning of the season.
The Nets ranked eighth with a record of 41 wins and 41.
Jefferson's absence is a key to the Nets' weak record.
However, Jefferson returned before the end of the season and helped the Nets successfully return to the playoffs.
Brand's joining also made them more competitive in the playoffs.
Here we must focus on the Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers traded Odom over and wanted to make it to the playoffs.
However, the running-in effect is not good, and the competitors are too strong, they have only 35 wins in the end and miss the playoffs.
At this moment, the Cavaliers boss Gilbert had the heart to kill.
And there is someone to take the blame for everything in this world.
It can be foreseen that in the offseason, one of Bagnani, Milicic and Odom will definitely leave.
As the ranking was determined, the matchup in the East was also released.
This is probably the most suspenseful playoff in the Eastern Conference in NBA history, because no team can say that they are 100% sure to win.
Wizards VS Basketball Network
Although the Nets have a poor record, after Jefferson's comeback, the team also has a new trident lineup of Carter, Jefferson and Brand.
The Wizards have to spend some time to defeat them.
Celtics vs. Heat
The same situation is also something Bostonians need to face.
The Big Three's lineup is unprecedentedly powerful, but neither Wade nor O'Neal Jr. are unknown people.
Especially on the playoff stage, the influence of super giants on the game will be more obvious.
Bulls vs Raptors
This is also a very suspenseful showdown in the East.
Although the Bulls are much better in terms of record, the Raptors trio is obviously more experienced.
Especially for Paul, he met the experienced Byron Davis in the second grade.
This is also a huge challenge for him.
Pistons vs Magic
Well, there is suspense between the Bulls and the Raptors, but this set of matches is the most suspenseful.
Without big loans, the Pistons' competitiveness in the playoffs will definitely decline, while the Magic have made significant improvements this season.
This is a battle between old-fashioned powerhouses and new highs, and no one knows which side will eventually break through.
Let’s take a look at this western side.
The Lakers ranked first in the league with 70 wins and 12 losses!
Although it is a pity that the Bulls failed to break the Bulls' 72-win record, the Lakers' performance this season is excellent.
Those clichés are O'Neal's weight loss, Hill's joining, Sun Hao's defense, Millsap and Lu Wei's stable performance.
These reasons have led to a brilliant season for the Lakers.
Sun Hao averaged 30.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 8.6 assists per game, and ranked first in the league in scoring again!
Moreover, he ranked fifth in the league in assists per game, following Nash, Deron, Kidd and Paul.
Because last season, a series of crazy scoring performances such as 33.3 points per game, 81 points per game, and 62 in three quarters.
The team's feeling about Sun Hao this season is more because he is... paddling.
But in fact, Sun Hao's passing ability improved, so he no longer had to rely on scoring points to win games like before.
Or you can also understand that his score is more stable than last season.
The Nuggets ranked second in the Western Conference with a record of 60 wins and 22 losses.
On the changes a role player brings to a team.
Deronti West's joining plays an even greater role in the Nuggets.
His playing style is so good with James and Iverson, and he liberated JR Smith.
West also worked with James in history, and the season he started as a team was also the season when the Cavaliers scored 66 wins in history.
A good horse with a good saddle is probably easy to describe West's influence on the Nuggets.
This is also the first time James has truly entered the championship ranks in his career.
The Nuggets' summer deal proved to be successful.
And their luck this season is obviously better than last season.
In fact, everyone can see that the Nuggets' two inside players are not right, O'Neal is still at the top level in the league.
So they have a good chance to hit the Lakers and see how much Haywood can limit O'Neal.
Even if the Lakers fail in the previous game, they may reach the finals if they are lucky.
The Suns ranked third in the Western Conference with a record of 59 wins and 23 losses.
Although the mid-term trading storm caused the Suns' record to fluctuate for a while, the team's regular season performance rarely disappoints.
The question now is, how far can they go in the playoffs?
The Spurs rank fourth in the Western Conference with a record of 58 wins and 24 losses.
The Spurs and the Heat are completely opposite. The longer the GDP plays together, the stronger the tacit understanding.
In addition, Stephen Jackson, who was "robbed" on the trading deadline, is a big boom.
To be continued...
