US media rankings the starting strength of each team in the new season: Lakers are tenth, Warriors are seventh, Rockets are only fifth

With the beginning of the NBA playoffs, now all teams in the league have begun to prepare for the game. The core lineups of many teams have changed during this offseason, so each team will also actively run into their lineups. In the new season, many teams in the league have the strength to compete for the championship. Recently, the US media CP has also ranked based on the starting strength of each team. Here we will mainly talk about the top ten. Let’s see if their rankings are reasonable?

The 10th Lakers

The Lakers are only ranked tenth, which is indeed unexpected. After all, just the starting lineup of the Lakers, there are only a handful of people who dare to say that they are more luxurious than them in the entire league. Their starting lineups are Doncic, Rivers, James, Hachimura and Ayton, three excellent ball-holding cores. Doncic and James also have the top ten levels in the league. Perhaps because their defense in the backcourt is not outstanding enough, they are just ranked tenth. After the Hawks introduced Polygon in the offseason, the outside world is also optimistic about them. Their starting points are Trae Young, Daniels, Jaylen Johnson, Rissache and Polygon. The talent is very outstanding. Before Jaylen Johnson was injured last season, the Hawks were the killers of the Eastern Conference team. The Celtics and the Cavaliers had lost to them. Now they have obtained the Posses. The team is stronger on paper, but this team seems to be still far from winning the championship. The 8th Warriors

The Warriors have just completed their operations recently. The starting lineup of this team in the new season is: Curry, Butler, Horford, Zhu Meng, and Pojemsky. The three elders still start. To be honest, I think if Melton is in good shape, he should replace Porger's starting position. Although the Warriors have many stars or former stars, they are too old. I think it is unreasonable for them to rank ahead of the Lakers.

The Seventh Clippers

The Clippers operated well in the offseason, and their lineup thickness has been significantly improved. They are now considered one of the popular teams to win the championship. The Clippers' starting lineups are: Harden, Bill, Leonard, Collins and Zubac. Paul and Daluo are also on the bench! Although many core members of this team are very old, Collins and Zubac are both very young and they can help the veterans.

The Sixth Timberwolves

Wolves have been the current starting lineup in the past few years. Their starting lineups are Conley, Edwards, McDann, Randall and Gobert. Their starting lineup is very balanced, with excellent wing athletic ability and top inside defense. Although Conley is the team's biggest weakness in starting the team, his experience and space ability can also help the team. The Timberwolves are probably a popular team in the Western Conference championship in the years to come.

Fifth Rockets

If Van Jordan had not been injured, the Rockets would not have ranked fifth only. The Rockets had a good record last season, and now they have Durant and Finney Smith again. The team's strength has been further strengthened. Their starting positions next season are Amen, Finney Smith, Durant, Jabarry Smith and Shin Kyung. These five lineups are too strong. But to be honest, if the Rockets want to win the championship, they still have to consider winning an excellent defender.

The Fourth Magic

The Magic sent away the garbage contracts between Pope and Cole Anthony in the offseason, in exchange for Bain, and the team also won the Tyers Jones. They are also optimistic about having a chance to win good results in the new season. The Magic's starting lineup next season are Sages, Bain, Banchero, Wagner and Carter Jr. The talent of this team is definitely the best in the entire East. The Magic may have a chance to reach the division final next season.

The third Nuggets

The Nuggets can be said to be very successful in this offseason. They sent Porter Jr., got Cameron Johnson, and also won excellent blue-collar puzzles such as Valan. After some operation, the Nuggets not only did not increase their expenses, but also lowered their salaries. The new general manager's operation is so good. Their starting points are: Jamalmurray, Braun, Cameron Johnson, Gordon and Jokic, which are stronger than the starters last season.

The second Knicks are indeed strong in the starting lineup. Hart may be going to play as a substitute in the new season. I thought Abuselle could enter the starting lineup, but the US media gave a combination of the two towers. Their starting lineups are: Brunson, Bridges, Anunobi, Towns and Mitchell Robinson. The defense of this starting lineup is strong enough, and the quad-core abilities are excellent. Even if Mitchell does not have the space ability, they can easily score.

The first Thunder

The Thunder's starting lineup is Alexander, Jewish, Dort, Chett and Hartten, or the starting lineup of last season. The Thunder won the championship last season with this starting lineup, so it is reasonable that they are ranked first. After all, they have achieved success with this starting lineup. The Thunder expects that their chemistry will be better in the new season, and the three-core will also increase the ball, which is worth looking forward to. Having said that, what do you want to say about this ranking? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
