On October 15th, the NBA preseason has started for a while. Judging from the preseason, many teams want to achieve good results this season. Even the Hornets, which have been failing for many years, have begun to introduce veterans to help the team win. Of course, if a team wants to win, it cannot only rely on veterans. The core is the key. Recently, the US media ESPN has divided the trio of the league's 30 teams according to their strength. Is it reasonable to take a look?
Top 10
There are a total of 4 teams in this tier: Nets, Trail Blazers, Jazz and Wizards. These are the three cores of bad-level teams. The Nets' three cores are Claxton, Jamin and Traore. Without Thomas, they drafted two rookies? The Trail Blazers' three cores are Kamara, Klingen and Sharp. Can you at least put Holiday in there? The Jazz are Bailey, Clayton and Markkanen, and the Wizards are Coulibaly, Tre Johnson and Sarr. The Trail Blazers actually have a chance to have a good record.
Position 9
There are three teams in this package: the Hornets, Pelicans and Suns. The Hornets are Sangoal, Miller and Knipur, and the Pelicans are Zion, Quinn and Phils. Shouldn't Trey Murphy and Poole be selected more? The Suns have Booker, Maluacchi and Ryan Dunn, and Jaylen Green and Dillon were not selected. If the Pelicans and Suns were the three cores I mentioned, they would not be ranked in the ninth tier. The Suns are ranked this way, and their three cores can only be ranked in this tier.
Group 8
There are 4 teams in total in this tier: Bulls, Heat, Kings and Raptors. The Bulls are Gidi, Buzeris, Noah Essanger, and the Heat are Adebayor, Herro and Will. Will's future upper limit is definitely worth looking forward to. The kings are LaVine, Murray and Sasha. They are quite famous, but they have never been able to lead the team to a decent record. The Raptors have Barnes, Ingram and Boyles, and they have Quickley and Barrett. Why choose Boyles? While this list considers future potential, Barrett is also young.
Gear 7
This gear has the Grizzlies and the 76ers. The Grizzlies are Morant, Jaren Jackson and Coward. Coward is the player swapped with Yang Hansen. The young man's defense is good, but the offense has yet to be developed. Morant and Jaren Jackson also seem to be difficult to improve. The 76ers are Embiid, Maxey and Edgecombe. The 76ers have strength, but there are too many injuries. If they are still plagued by injuries this season, I think they can rebuild around Edgecombe.
Group 6
This tier includes the Mavericks, Warriors, Clippers, Lakers and Bucks. The Mavericks are Irving, Big Eyebrow and Flagg, the Warriors are Curry, Dream Chaser and Butler, the Clippers are Harden, Leonard and Zubac, and the Lakers They are Doncic, James and Xiaoli, and the Bucks are Giannis Antetokounmpo, Turner and Portis. It is unreasonable for the Bucks' trio to enter this bracket. After all, the Bucks' three-core team does not seem to be that strong. Is the trio of Lakers, Warriors and Clippers underestimated for entering this bracket?
Group 5
This tier includes the Celtics and Pacers. The Celtics are Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Derrick White, and the Pacers are Haliburton, Siakam, and Nembhard. To be honest, if we just talk about the strength of the three giants, there is a gap between these two groups and Huyong Ship, right? The Pacers relied on team basketball and lineup thickness, and the same was true for the original Celtics. Without five stars, how could the Celtics win the championship so easily. The key is that now their first core is seriously injured, and it is hard to say whether they can return to their peak.
Patch 4
In this frame there are the Hawks, Pistons, Rockets, Timberwolves, Magic and Spurs, all of which are young and energetic teams. The Eagles are Daniels, Jaylen Johnson and Risa Shay. The Pistons are Cunningham, Holland and Orsa Thompson, the Rockets are Shen Jing, Amen and Shepard, the Timberwolves are Edwards, Madan and Randall, the Magic are Banchero, Bane and Valerie, and the Spurs are Wenban, Fox and Dylan. They are all young and very good immediate combat combinations, and their future ceilings are worth looking forward to.
Third gear
In this gear there are the Cavaliers and Knicks. This is the trio with the potential to win the championship. The Cavaliers are Mitchell, Garland and Mobley. They are very talented and ready to fight. The biggest shortcoming is that the dual-core backcourt is too short and can easily be targeted by opponents. The Knicks are Brunson, Towns and Anunoby. Although the Knicks' three-core are all excellent players at the same position, they don't have superstars. Brunson still has a gap. Towns has such talent, but he can't fight a tough battle.
Top 2, Tier 1
Because these two are the same team, we put them together. The second tier is the Nuggets, Jokic, Gordon and Murray. This combination has proven its strength in the past few years. It almost overturned the Thunder last season. The thickness of the lineup has been strengthened in the new season, which is worth looking forward to. The first gear is the Thunder. The Big Three are Alexander, Chet and Jaywe. These Big Three won the championship last season, and they are still very young and have room to increase their goals, so they will be stronger in the new season.
Speaking of which, what do you want to say about this time’s sub-batch? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
