The Dallas Mavericks brought in Anthony Davis after giving up Luca Doncic, and the Los Angeles Lakers established the Doncic-LeBron James system. It filled Davis's void by bringing in rookie big man Mark Williams.
Golden State acquired Jimmy Butler and San Antonio Spurs acquired De'Aaron Parks.
A new NBA topographic map is needed. CBS Sports in the U.S. urgently inspected the power of 30 teams after the trade deadline on the 9th (Korea time).
It was divided into tiers.
The first tier was just three teams. It was the team with the highest winning percentage in the East and West. Oklahoma City ranked first, the Cleveland Cavaliers ranked second, and the Boston Celtics ranked third.
It is a team that has been at the top of the East and West since the beginning of the season. Although there has been no significant change in power, the assessment is still strong. In other words, the stronghold of the 3 teams due to the trade??This means there is no team that can do it.
Tier 2 is exciting. The New York Knicks ranked fourth, the Memphis Grizzlies ranked fifth, the Denver Nuggets ranked sixth, the Houston Rockets ranked seventh, and the Los Angeles Lakers ranked eighth. This is Tier 2.
The 4th to 7th places are all existing strong teams. The Los Angeles Lakers took the last spot in the second tier as they ranked eighth. Expectations are high for the synergy between Doncic and LeBron.
The media said 'LeBron and Doncic's defense is unstable. However, it can bring a number of options from an attack'
The third tier is the Milwaukee Bucks, Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Clippers, Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves.
Dallas took the third tier in 12th place, but Anthony Davis was not highly praised for the absence of Doncic.
Tier 4 is a playoff contention. The Golden State Warriors, Phoenix Suns, Sacramento Kings, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs and Philadelphia 76ers rose.
San Antonio, which acquired the Pax, classified it as a playoff contention. The combination of monster newcomer Victor Wembanyama and Pax can certainly create synergy.
