Basketball

After Curry missed the Warriors' G2 loss due to injury, the US media "theanalyst" updated its chances of winning the championship! Among them, the Nuggets ranked last with 4.3%, while the Thunder were still ranked as high as 49.4%.

The scores in the east are as follows

East: Knicks 2-0 Celtics, Pacers 2-0 Cavaliers;

Western: Warriors 1-1 Timberwolves, Thunder 1-1 Nuggets.

8th place: Nuggets (4.3%)

After the Nuggets defeated the Thunder in G1, G2 lost 43 points in a big score, exposing two major issues: lineup depth and physical fitness.

The good news is that G3 and G4 will both be the home courts of the Nuggets, and the Thunder may not be able to pass the level easily.

7th place: Warriors (4.5%)

After the Warriors defeated the Timberwolves in the first game, G2 failed to continue his magic away game without Curry, and suffered a 24-point defeat of 93-117.

According to official and medical experts, Curry will miss at least two games of G3 and G4. Whether the Warriors can hold the next one in both home courts will determine how far they can go this season.

Combined with Curry's current injury situation and the Warriors' performance after he was absent, it is not unfair to be ranked second to last.

No. 6: Pacers (4.8%)

Even if they win 2-0 leads away, the Pacers are still not favored by big data. They think they have a 54.2% chance of defeating the Cavaliers, and the probability of advancing to the finals is only 21.1%. The reason why

is underestimated is mainly because after the first two games of the second round, the East has caused chaos in internal competition, and all teams seem to have the possibility of breaking out of the East.

Fifth place: Knicks (4.8%)

Knicks are another team in the Eastern Conference that took away two away games in the first two games of the second round. Compared with the Pacers, the Knicks' two games have significantly higher gold content.

Because the Knicks faced a relatively complete defending champion and had a 20-point comeback in two consecutive games, the probability of the Knicks advancing to the next round reached 58.7%.

However, the Knicks' overly dependent on their core style of play has certain hidden dangers, so the probability of advancing to the finals is 21.1% as that of the Pacers.

4th place: Timberwolves (6.1%)

After two games in the second round, the fact that the Timberwolves simply eliminated the Lakers in the first round was insufficient. The latter did not make the Timberwolves realize the cruelty and confrontation of the playoffs this season.

Especially the core Edwards, he needs to adapt as soon as possible to hit a three-pointer under strong physical confrontation. In addition, Gobert's shortcoming in defense replacement was also exposed, resulting in the Timberwolves' probability of advancing in the second round was higher than that of the Warriors, but the probability of advancing to the final was only 12.9%, which was obviously not considered a reasonable championship-level team.

Third place: Celtics (11.2%)

The score is 0-2 behind and falls into a desperate situation. Brown and Tatum need to prove that the two can crack the defenses of Anunobi and Bridges on the offensive end, especially at critical moments.

The Pope God also needs to recover as soon as possible, otherwise the defending champion is very likely to be eliminated by surprise.

Second place: Cavaliers (14.9%)

Compared to finding the Pacers' weaknesses, what is more important for the Cavaliers is how to help Garland, Mobley and Hunter return to the arena. If the three-man G3 still cannot play, the Cavaliers will be in danger.

No. 1: Thunder (49.4%)

Although he was reversed by the Nuggets in G1, the G2 Thunder rebounded strongly, and Alexander broke the inner demons and continued his dominance in the regular season to the playoffs.

If Alexander can maintain such a performance for a long time, the Thunder will undoubtedly be the biggest favorite to compete for the championship this season. If not, the Thunder will be the most overrated team this season.

Even if you win a 43-point victory in G2, it is not easy for this Thunder to pass continuously at the Nuggets at home. They need more key victories to prove themselves when they are young.
