No. 1 in the power rankings, beating Cleveland and Boston. OKC, Houston. And the surprise team came up for 5th place
Claveland ace Donovan Mitchell.




The Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics are fierce. It is forming a fierce eastern liberley.

It's the second round of the league at the beginning of the season.

On the 5th (Korea time), ESPN, a U.S. sports media outlet, selected the Boston Celtics as the No. 1 weekly power ranking. However, CBS Sports, an American sports media outlet, had a different idea.




Still ranked the Cleveland Cavaliers as the No. 1 pick. The two teams are alternately ranked first and second in the weekly power rankings at the beginning of the season.

CBS Sports ranked the Cleveland Cavaliers as the No. 1 player in the NBA's weekly power rankings on the 7th (Korea time).

The media outlet is Cleveland, which has a record of 20 wins and 3 losses. It's still number one. I got my revenge on the Boston Celtics. The ORTG (expected score per 100 shots) has been 110 points in the last four games, and the defense is still strong. He said the balance between offense and defense is the best in the league. The Boston Celtics are also in second place. The Boston Celtics have an 18-4 record. What's even scarier is that Boston has already been operating its squad in playoff mode. If Kristaps Porzingis joins the team in earnest, it will be even more muted.




Oklahoma City (17 wins, 5 losses), the strongest player in the West, came in third, followed by the Houston Rockets (15 wins, 8 losses).

The fifth place was taken by the powerful dark horse. It's Orlando Magic. Orlando is a strong dark horse in the East this season. Ace Paolo Vanquero is a long-term injury. However, he is on a roll with a strong defense and has 16 wins and 8 losses.

The media has a record of 16 wins and 8 losses without 'Banquero. Franz Wagner is showing strong scoring ability and has grown into an All-Star player. He is also emerging as an MVP candidate. I'm winning consecutively at home.




Memphis Grizzlies, whose ace Ja Morant returned, finished sixth, while Dallas Mavericks, New York Knicks, Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns were listed in the top 10.
