After 4 game days! The strength of the Western Conference is clear at a glance: 3 teams in S class, 3 teams in A class!

On October 25th, the new NBA regular season has been completed in four days. All 15 teams in the Western Conference have played at least two games. The results of each team's offseason operations have also been verified on the field. After four game days, the strength of the Western Conference teams is clear at a glance. At present, there are only three teams with S-level strength. Let's take a look at the specific strength classification!

D level (no hope): Mavericks, Suns, Kings, Pelicans, Rockets!

Mavericks (0 wins, 2 losses): In the first two games, the Mavericks, who were favored by many, suffered a two-game losing streak. In the opening game, they lost 92-125 to the Spurs. The inside combination of Big Eyebrows + Lively was penetrated by Wen Banyama alone. Although the number one pick, Flagg, had a double-double, he could not compare with Wen Banyama. In the second game, they lost an upset 107-117 to the Wizards, a weak team in the Eastern Conference. After two games, the Mavericks' offensive efficiency was last in the league at 95.2. In the preseason, the defensive efficiency, which was first in the league, dropped to 11th from the bottom in the league. They averaged only 9.5 three-pointers per game and were also last in the league. If the offense can't be opened up and the defense can't defend, they are a hopeless team!

Suns (1 win, 1 loss): Under the premise that Booker leads the team with Jaylen Green not playing, the ceiling of this team is very limited. The Suns played a total of two games in the first four game days. They narrowly defeated the Kings by 4 points in the opening game and lost to the Clippers 102-129 today. In today's league, it is impossible for a single-core team to achieve good results. Even when Jaylen Green returns, the Suns are still a hopeless team!

Kings (1 win, 1 loss): Under the leadership of LaVine, who averaged 30.5 points per game, the Kings got off to a 1-1 start. Both games went to the last minute. The first game was lost to the Suns, and the second game was won by the Jazz. In the new season, the Kings will complete their mission if they can reach the play-offs. The addition of Westbrook at the buzzer has given this team more attention. After the first two games, they ranked 18th in the league in terms of offense and 11th in defensive efficiency. It is too difficult for an offensive team to not be able to open up the offense!

Pelicans (0 wins and 2 losses): Ranked 14th in the Western Conference with 0 wins and 2 losses. The team lost to the Grizzlies and Spurs by small margins one after another. This is why they beat the Rockets and ranked second to last in the Western Conference. The offensive efficiency ranks 19th in the league, and the defensive efficiency ranks 18th in the league. Star star Zion is in good shape, averaging 27 points, 9.5 rebounds and 6 assists in two games. The key is how many games he can play is unpredictable. The Pelicans still have a long way to go before becoming a strong team!

Rockets (0 wins and 2 losses): Lost to the Thunder in double overtime in the opening game, and were defeated by the Pistons after returning home. After the first two games, there was no hope at all. Without VanVleet on the offensive end, they were all a bunch of headless flies, with various singles + outrageous mistakes. Amen and Shepard were unable to hold the No. 1 position. This team The biggest problem on the court, and Uduka's rigid and outrageous on-the-spot deployment also made the game uncomfortable to watch. After the first two games, the Rockets looked very strong, but their defensive efficiency was only 113.7, 16th in the league, and their offensive efficiency was 109.3, 23rd in the league. Not only did the acquisition of Durant not solve the offense, but even the defense that they were proud of last season was gone. Looking back, why did Uduka sign Okogie and DFS when the team already has Amen, Durant, Smith, and Eason? What is the use of mindlessly stacking up forwards? This team will have no hope if they don't introduce a qualified point guard!

Grizzlies (1 win, 1 loss): Neither of the two opponents the Grizzlies faced in the first two games could be considered strong teams. The Pelicans ranked last in the Western Conference last season, and the Heat were only an Eastern Conference play-off team. Facing these two The Grizzlies' 1 win and 1 loss in each game is not good. Both offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency rank at the bottom of the league. The offense they were proud of last season has also disappeared. What's worse is that the internal and external cores Morant and JJ Jackson are in average condition!

C level (the team of hope): Jazz, Trail Blazers, Timberwolves, Grizzlies!

Jazz (1 win, 1 loss): In the first two games, the Jazz ranked sixth in the Western Conference with 1 win and 1 loss. They performed impressively on both offense and defense. Especially in the opening game, they defeated the Clippers in just one quarter. The game against the Kings also reached the final moment. George missed a buzzer-beater and lost by 1 point. The offensive efficiency of 120.1 ranks sixth in the league, and the defensive efficiency of 110.9 ranks 11th in the league. It is a promising team with both offense and defense. If the Jazz can maintain their performance in the first two games, they may even have a chance to compete in the play-offs in the new season!

Trail Blazers (1 win, 1 loss): The first two games were against the top teams in the Western Conference last season. In the opening game, they suppressed the Timberwolves. The final loss to Edwards was not unfair. The extremely oppressive defense was very enjoyable. The arrival of Holiday gave this team a championship-level veteran, and the offense and defense were not chaotic. Avdija directly played at an All-Star level. In the game against the Warriors, all three troops were killed, allowing Curry to score 30+ points in three quarters. Unlike other bad teams, the Trail Blazers this season have shown strong defensive discipline on the court. The defensive efficiency of 109.7 ranks seventh in the league, and the offensive efficiency of 118.8 is also seventh in the league. When Lillard comes back, this team may become a very competitive team!

Timberwolves (1 win, 1 loss): The Timberwolves' reversal of the Trail Blazers in the opening game allowed us to see the foundation of the Western Conference Finals team for two consecutive years. Edwards's playing has become more and more mature, and his key ball ability has improved a lot. In the first two games, he averaged 36 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game, shooting 53% from the field and 50% from the three-point range.. Losing to the Lakers in an away game is not an unacceptable result. Everyone knows that the Lakers' home court is the most difficult game in the NBA!

Class A (strong playoff teams): Spurs, Lakers, Clippers!

Spurs (2 wins and 0 losses): They defeated the Mavericks in the opening game, and then defeated the Pelicans. They ranked first in the Western Conference with 2 wins and 0 losses. They averaged 122 points per game in the two games, ranked ninth in the league in offensive efficiency of 118.4, and ranked first in the league in defensive efficiency of 101 points conceded per game with 104 points! I have said before that this Spurs new season is worth everyone's expectations. Sure enough, Bunyama proved himself with an alien-level performance, averaging 34.5 points, 13 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1 steal and 6 blocks in two games. Who dares not to be optimistic about this team? In the new season, they can not only hit the Western Conference playoffs, but even achieve the top four results in the Western Conference!

Lakers (1 win, 1 loss): After being easily defeated by the Warriors in the first game, the Lakers quickly adjusted and defeated the Timberwolves who eliminated them in the playoffs last season. This game proved Doncic's leadership ability. After the offseason, his offensive and defensive strength improved again, averaging 46 points, 11.5 rebounds and 8.5 assists per game, becoming an NBA history The first player in history to average at least 45 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists in the first two games of the season. Rivers also averaged All-Star statistics of 25.5 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists per game. Losing is not terrible, and it is worth looking forward to adjusting back in time. As long as Ayton and Smart can find their defensive positioning, this team will be a strong playoff team under the leadership of Doncic!

Clippers (1 win, 1 loss): Like the Lakers, the Clippers performed poorly in the opening game and were unprepared on both offense and defense. In less than one quarter, the Jazz turned the game into garbage time. In the second game, the Clippers quickly adjusted their status. The two core players Harden and Leonard took the lead. It took half a quarter to defeat the game and beat the Suns by 27 points. It only took one game for the Clippers to regain the offensive and defensive feeling of last season. However, the biggest hidden danger of this team is the head coach. His slow and rigid on-the-spot command ability makes it difficult to believe that they can truly win the championship!

S level (championship contenders): Thunder, Nuggets, Warriors!

Thunder (2 wins and 0 losses): Although the defending champions are missing many core players, they still have consecutive victories over strong opponents (Rockets, Pacers). The team still maintains the high-pressure defense and quick counterattack tactics of last season, pressing the opponent's mistakes and creating fast break opportunities through full-court press. Alexander averaged 45 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the first two games, and is still the league's top killer. It is worth mentioning that he has made visible growth on the defensive end, and his stable super ability at critical moments is amazing. Although both games went into overtime, this team's offense and defense are too balanced, and they are the top S-class championship team in the Western Conference!

Nuggets (0 wins, 1 loss): Needless to say, anyone who watched the game between the Nuggets and the Warriors yesterday will know what level of team this is. Jokic is in average condition, new aid Johnson is still getting used to it, and Gordon forced Curry to perform at an epic level. Gordon, who continues to improve, is the reason why this team is scary.

Warriors (2 wins and 1 loss): Defeat the Lakers and Nuggets, and lost back-to-back to the Trail Blazers. After the first three games, Curry averaged 33.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.7 assists per game, shooting 52% from the field, 45% from the three-point range, and 100% from the free throw line. He played a 180 club performance without any injuries or injuries. He is the most influential person in the current game, even if Jokic, SGA, and Doncic are here, Jokic completely gave up on his opponent in the game against the Nuggets and flanked Curry before halftime. Even so, Curry still dominated the fourth quarter and overtime. You must know that these three games are not full warriors. As long as they are healthy, they can beat any team!
