内容:
(前言比较像是讲明明平常他都是10月才排怎么现在就在排了 所以就不翻了XD 反正重点就
是基于去年的排名再用季后补强他们有没有变强做加减)
Here’s how the (offseason) Power Rankings work:
It’s up to my discretion how the rankings shake out. For some teams, they’
ll be hit in the short term. Others will be given the benefit for the long
term. Yes, it is entirely subjective.
If I have a team ahead of another team, there’s no reason to ask why they’
re ranked above the team you like. The answer is pretty simple: I think that
team is set up better for success.
Yes, I watch the games. And yes, I watch your favorite team.
Only 15 teams will be deemed worthy of a GIF or video. That’s to limit how
much we eat up your data and computer’s processor.
This is supposed to be fun, so let’s have fun with it.
1.排名怎么变动是我自己斟酌的。有一些队伍他们只是暂时在那边。其他可能是长期的。
对,这完全是主观的东西。
2.如果有一队在另一队前面,这没有啥理由去问为啥他们在前面。答案很简单:我觉得这一
队的组成比较容易成功。
3.对,我看比赛。对,我有看你最爱的球队。
4.为了电脑效能,只有15队我有放GIF或影片(迷因那种 我就不放了XD)。
5.这应该是好玩的东西,所以我们好玩就好。
T1:强力竞争者
1. Golden State Warriors, defending champs
Major additions: JaMychal Green (free agent), Donte DiVincenzo (free agent),
Patrick Baldwin Jr. (draft)
Major subtractions: Gary Payton II (Portland), Nemanja Bjelica (Europe), Otto
Porter Jr. (Toronto), Juan Toscano-Anderson (Lakers)
Did this team get better? On the surface? Absolutely not. The Golden State
Warriors saw three — maybe four — good role players leave in free agency
this offseason. For a defending champion, that’s not exactly rare, but it
was kind of odd to feel like the Warriors had finally hit a breaking point
with doling out luxury-tax penalties. If DiVincenzo’s knee is healthy, he’
ll be a nice replacement for Payton as a very different role player. Green
should be a solid rotation option for them. This team is banking on Stephen
Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson being great in title defense form,
and on the young guys (Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody, James Wiseman) growing
up in bigger roles next season. The biggest key is a full offseason for
Thompson … and maybe how Green handles extension talks.
1. 金州勇士,卫冕军
主要补强:JaMychal Green(FA),Donte DiVincenzo(FA),Patrick Baldwin Jr.(选秀)
主要流失:Gary Payton II(波特兰),Nemanja Bjelica(欧洲),Otto Porter Jr.(多伦多),
Juan Toscano-Anderson(湖人)
这队有变强吗?表面上?当然没有。金州勇士眼睁睁看着3...甚至4个好的角色球员变成自由
球员离开。对于一个卫冕军来说,这并不稀奇,但看到勇士终于在缴税上走到一个临界点感
觉很奇怪。如果DiVincenzo的膝盖是健康的,他应该是GP2很好的替代品,虽然两个是非常不
同的角色球员。Green也应该是他们不错的轮值选项。这队主要是靠着Curry,Green与
Thompson才在一个很好的卫冕状态,且下一季年轻人(Kuminga,Moody,Wiseman)将会成长成
更重要的角色。最大的关键还是在Thompson的状态与Green延长约的协商。
2. Boston Celtics
Major additions: Malcolm Brogdon (trade), Danilo Gallinari (free agent)
Major subtractions: Daniel Theis (Indiana), Aaron Nesmith (Indiana)
Did this team get better? They definitely got better. The Boston Celtics will
have to worry about the availability of Brogdon. He hasn’t been reliable in
years when it comes to staying on the court. But considering what the Celtics
gave up in exchange for Brogdon to join the squad, it was a no-brainer. When
he’s available to play, he gives them one of the deepest backcourts in the
NBA. Coming off an NBA Finals appearance, Brad Stevens made the team better.
And maybe they even keep trying to get Kevin Durant? What will be interesting
is the effect of reports continuing over the years of Jaylen Brown being
dangled to acquire superstars. It happened with Danny Ainge, and it’s
happening with Stevens. You can make an argument for keeping this core
together after the first-year run under Ime Udoka. You can make an argument
for getting someone like Durant even if it means giving up Brown. The Celtics
aren’t just assuming they remain the best team in the East because they made
the finals.
2.波士顿赛尔提克
主要补强:Malcolm Brogdon(交易),Danilo Gallinari(FA)
主要流失:Daniel Theis(印第安纳),Aaron Nesmith(印第安纳)
这队有变强吗?他们当然变更强了。波士顿赛尔提克会需要担心Brogdon的出赛状况。他已
经很多年没办法稳定待在场上了。但考量到塞尔提克为了买他而付出的代价,这是无脑的选
择。当他可以打的时候,他会给他们NBA最有深度的后场之一。在NBA总冠军赛结束后,Brad
Stevens把球队变得更好了,他们可能甚至可以继续尝试买来Durant?多年来Jaylen Brown一
直被传出要被拿去交易巨星的效应会是很有趣的。Danny Ainge时发生,Stevens时依然发生
。你可以争论要将这些核心在Udoka第一季的执教后留着。你也可以争论要去拿一个像KD一
样的球员,即使这意味着要放Brown。赛尔提克并未因为他们打进了冠军赛就默认他们是东
区最好的球队。
3. Phoenix Suns
Major additions: Damion Lee (free agent), Josh Okogie (free agent)
Major subtractions: JaVale McGee (Dallas), Aaron Holiday (Atlanta)
Did this team get better? The Phoenix Suns did not get better this offseason,
but it’s fair to wonder how much they even need to get better. Yes, the end
of the postseason was a disaster. Was that Chris Paul collapsing? Was it a
rift between Deandre Ayton and the organization? Was that the Suns coming
back down to earth (realistic in basketball, very dangerous in science)?
Bringing back Ayton by matching the Indiana offer sheet was a good move, and
hopefully, they can put water under the bridge. Losing McGee sucks, but they
retained Bismack Biyombo and they’ll get Dario Saric back. The Suns need to
hope a healthy playoff appearance in 2023 looks more like what we saw in
their 2021 finals run. They’re still a great matchup to face the defending
champion Warriors.
3.凤凰城太阳
主要补强:Damion Lee(FA),Josh Okogie(FA)
主要流失:JaVale McGee(达拉斯),Aaron Holiday(亚特兰大)
这队有变强吗?太阳并没有在这个休赛期变得更好但他们还需要变多好是个好问题。是的,
去年季后赛的结尾是场灾难。Chris Paul衰退了?Deandre Ayton与球队之间有矛盾吗?太阳
要坠落地球了(篮球很真实,科学很危险)?借由匹配印第安纳的合约将Ayton签回是好的动作
并希望他们可以不计前嫌。失去McGee很糟糕,但他们留下了Biyombo并会有Saric回归。太
阳需要希望他们能在2023有个健康的季后赛,如同他们2021打进总冠军赛一般。他们还是卫
冕军勇士的一个强力竞争者。
4. Milwaukee Bucks
Major additions: Joe Ingles (free agent), MarJon Beauchamp (draft)
Major subtractions: None
Did this team get better? Just with being healthy, the Milwaukee Bucks are
better. I don’t think we should expect anything from Beauchamp as a rookie,
and he’ll probably spend a lot of time in the G League still. Ingles is
coming off an ACL injury, so we don’t know when he’ll be back and
contributing. But the Bucks get a healthy Giannis Antetokounmpo, a healthy
Khris Middleton (assuming he heals from the wrist surgery on time) and a
healthy Jrue Holiday. They brought back their key role players. And this team
was still giving Boston hell in the postseason without its second-best
player. I almost had Milwaukee above Phoenix and Boston, but I want to see
the health of Middleton and Brook Lopez to start the season. Let’s not
forget how great this Bucks team is.
4.密尔瓦基公鹿
主要补强:Joe Ingles(FA),MarJon Beauchamp(选秀)
主要流失:无
这队有变强吗?只要维持健康,密尔瓦基公鹿就更强了,我不觉得我们需要从菜鸟Beauchamp
期待他有什么贡献且他应该会长期待在G League。Ingles刚从ACL伤病回来所以我们不知道
他什么时候会回来并做出贡献。但公鹿有健康的Antetokounmpo,健康的Khris Middleton(
假设他手腕手术复原进度准时)以及健康的Jrue Holiday。他们签回了他们重要的角色球员
。这队在失去他们第二好的球员时仍带给波士顿一个地狱。我几乎要把密尔瓦基排在凤凰
城与波士顿前面,但我想看到Middleton与Brook Lopez开季时的健康状态。请不要忘记公鹿
有多强。
5. Miami Heat
Major additions: Nikola Jovic (draft)
Major subtractions: P.J. Tucker (Philadelphia)
Did this team get better? They did not. The Miami Heat are a little bit in
limbo with their offseason. Tucker is gone, and that’s a big loss. The only
new player they’ve really brought in is a rookie who is currently most
notable for having a name one letter away from the two-time reigning MVP. The
Heat are waiting to see if they have a realistic shot at Kevin Durant (less
likely) or Donovan Mitchell (do they want to give up all those picks?) in a
trade. Otherwise, they’ll probably just expect advancements from the young
guys and hope the bounce that didn’t go their way in trying to get back to
the finals falls for them this time. The most notable thing for the Heat this
offseason has been Jimmy Butler’s new hair.
5.迈阿密热火
主要补强:Nikola Jovic(选秀)
主要流失:P.J. Tucker(费城)
这队有变强吗?他们没有。迈阿密热火休赛期有些停滞。Tucker没了,这是巨大的损失。他
们唯一的新球员是一个因为与两届MVP名字很像才出名的菜鸟。热火他们还在等待他们是否
能有机会得到Kevin Durant(比较不可能)或Donovan Mitchell(他们愿意放弃那堆选秀权吗
?)。否则,他们可能只能期待年轻球员的成长并希望这个反弹并不会使他们重返决赛之路受
到阻碍。热火休赛季最受到关注的事情是Jimmy Butler的新发型。
T2:竞争者边缘
6. Memphis Grizzlies
Major additions: David Roddy (draft), Jake LaRavia (draft), Kennedy Chandler
(draft), Danny Green (trade), Kenneth Lofton Jr. (free agent)
Major subtractions: De’Anthony Melton (Philadelphia), Kyle Anderson
(Minnesota)
Did this team get better? The Memphis Grizzlies did not get better from a
talent standpoint. Anderson left for Minnesota, and they traded Melton for a
draft pick that became Roddy. We also have Jaren Jackson Jr. out for months
after another surgery. The Grizzlies should expect to take a step back, which
is not a big deal considering they surprised everybody with the second-best
record in basketball this past season. They grabbed four really nice young
role players on draft night, and we can expect Ja Morant and Desmond Bane to
get even better. But the Grizzlies lost two significant role players, and they
’ll have to figure that out. Bringing back Tyus Jones was a great deal.
6.曼菲斯灰熊
主要补强:David Roddy(选秀),Jake LaRavia(选秀),Kennedy Chandler(选秀),Danny
Green(交易),Kenneth Lofton Jr.(FA)
主要流失:De;Anthony Melton(费城),Kyle Anderson(明尼苏达)
这队有变强吗?曼菲斯灰熊没有把天赋再往上堆叠。Anderson离开去了北大荒,且他们卖掉
Melton以选来Roddy。我们还有Jaren Jackson Jr.因为动手术而要缺席数个月。灰熊应该
要被期待退步。不过是在他们去年惊喜了所有人拿下联盟第二的战绩后这并不是什么大事
。他们选秀夜抓下了4名不错的年轻角色球员,且我们可以期待Ja Morant与Desmond Bane再
进步。不过灰熊失去了两个重要的角色球员并需要找出解决方法。签回Tyus Jones是很好
的动作。
7. Philadelphia 76ers
Major additions: De’Anthony Melton (trade), P.J. Tucker (free agent), Danuel
House (free agent)
Major subtractions: DeAndre Jordan (Denver), Paul Millsap (free agent), Danny
Green (Memphis)
Did this team get better? Oh my god, yes. Daryl Morey and Elton Brand had a
brilliant offseason. This team had no depth last season after the James
Harden trade. Picking up Melton for an injured Danny Green (and a pick) was
massive. Tucker getting a three-year deal was a surprise, but a necessary
pickup for the Sixers. Danuel House is a really nice role player. If this
team is healthy, it’ll be a contender. Joel Embiid is too good not to be.
However, we need to see a better Harden than we’ve seen over the last year
or so. Great offseason for them though.
7.费城76人
主要补强:De'Anthony Melton(交易),P.J. Tucker(FA),Danuel House(FA)
主要流失:DeAndre Jordan(丹佛),Paul Millsap(FA),Danny Green(曼菲斯)
这队有变强吗?我的天,有。Daryl Morey与Elton Brand有个很聪明的休赛期。这队在James
Harden交易之后就没了深度。只用受伤的Danny Green(与选秀权)就换到Melton很重要。
Tucker拿到3年约是个惊喜,不过是76人必要的补强。Danuel House是个很棒的角色球员。
如果这对健康他们一定是强力竞争者。Joel Embiid太强了不可能不排进去。不过,我们还
是得看到比去年更好的Harden。但这对他们来说仍是一个很棒的休赛期。
T3:季后赛球队
8. Dallas Mavericks
Major additions: Christian Wood (trade), Jaden Hardy (draft), JaVale McGee
(free agent)
Major subtractions: Jalen Brunson (New York), Boban Marjanovic (Houston),
Marquese Chriss (Houston)
Did this team get better? I do think the Dallas Mavericks got a little better
but it’s tricky. Losing Brunson will be big, even with the addition of
Spencer Dinwiddie last season. Brunson was steady, and they needed that
presence. Wood has to prove he plays winning basketball. The talent is there,
but they need his skills on offense along with real effort on defense. Jason
Kidd should be the guy who can get through to him though. The McGee pickup
was really big for them, as they’ve needed some real interior depth. They
need Tim Hardaway Jr. back and healthy, but this team had such a great
season. I know they made the conference finals, but they’ll have to keep
improving to keep up with that West landscape.
8.达拉斯小牛
主要补强:Christian Wood(交易),Jaden Hardy(选秀), JaVale McGee(FA)
主要流失:Jalen Brunson(纽约),Boban Marjanovic(休士顿),Marquese Chriss(休士顿)
这队有变强吗?我是觉得达拉斯小牛稍微变强了不过有点微妙。失去Brunson会很巨大,即使
上一季补进了Spencer Dinwiddie依旧巨大。Brunson很稳定且他们需要他的存在。Wood必
须证明他会打会赢的篮球。他天赋摆在那边但他们不但需要他进攻的技巧也需要他在防守
上付出真正的努力。Jason Kidd应该会是那个可以引导他的人就是。McGee的签约也很重大
,他们从以前就一直很需要内线的深度。他们需要Tim Hardaway Jr.回来且健康,但这队去
年就有一个好赛季了。我知道他们打进了分区决赛,但他们需要持续进步才能跟上西区的板
块动荡。
9. Denver Nuggets
Major additions: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (trade), Ish Smith (trade), Bruce
Brown Jr. (free agent), Christian Braun (draft), Peyton Watson (draft),
DeAndre Jordan (free agent)
Major subtractions: Will Barton (Washington), Monté Morris (Washington),
JaMychal Green (Golden State), Austin Rivers (Minnesota)
Did this team get better? I love what the Denver Nuggets did, and they
absolutely got better, even though they lose Tim Connelly from the front
office. Trading for Caldwell-Pope was a big addition for a team that needs
his shooting and more importantly his defense. Smith should help as a safety
net for the times when Bones Hyland still shows his inexperience. Brown is a
great pickup for them, and his cutting will be great for playing off Nikola
Jokic. This team is getting Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. back, and we
don’t know what that will look like. We know the potential, but we don’t
know the reality of their bodies returning. But this Nuggets team is loaded
and could skyrocket up these rankings.
9.丹佛金块
主要补强:Kentavious Caldwell-Pope(交易),Ish Smith(交易),Bruce Brown Jr.(FA),
Christian Braun(选秀),Peyton Watson(选秀),DeAndre Jordan(FA)
主要流失:Will Barton(华盛顿),Monte Morris(华盛顿),JaMychal Green(金州),Austin
Rivers(明尼苏达)
这队有变强吗?即使他们制服组失去了Tim Connelly,我爱金块所做的事并绝对变更好了。
交易来Caldwell-Pope是个大补强因为他们需要他的投射以及更重要的防守。Smith应该可
以为Bones Hyland成长不如预期时设下保险。Brown是个不错的签约,他的空手切配合
Nikola Jokic将会很棒。这一队还会有Jamal Murray与Michael Porter Jr.回归,但我们不
知道他们会看起来怎样。我们知道他们的潜力,但我们不知道他们身体回归时的真实情况。
但这只金块队战力十足并可能在排名中如同火箭般飞窜。
10. Atlanta Hawks
Major additions: Dejounte Murray (trade), Mo Harkless (trade), Justin Holiday
(trade), AJ Griffin (draft), Frank Kaminsky (free agent), Aaron Holiday (free
agent)
Major subtractions: Kevin Huerter (Sacramento), Danilo Gallinari (Boston),
Kevin Knox (Detroit), Delon Wright (Washington), Gorgui Dieng (San Antonio)
Did this team get better? The Atlanta Hawks had a brilliant offseason and
very much improved. The trade for Murray gives them a great complement to
Trae Young in the backcourt on both ends of the floor. Losing Huerter and
Gallinari can be tough, but bringing in Justin Holiday is a good plug for the
perimeter in this rotation. The Hawks knew they couldn’t just bring the
group back that disappointed last season under expectations. They needed some
new blood, and now they have a real chance to build something dangerous in
the loaded Eastern Conference.
10.亚特兰大老鹰
主要补强:Dejounte Murray(交易),Mo Harkless(交易),Justin Holiday(交易),AJ
Griffin(选秀),Frank Kaminsky(FA),Aaron Holiday(FA)
主要流失:Kevin Huerter(沙加缅度),Danilo Gallinari(波士顿),Kevin Knox(底特律),
Delon Wright(华盛顿),Gorgui Dieng(圣安东尼奥)
这队有变强吗?亚特兰大老鹰有个聪明的休赛季并进步了非常多。Murray交易案给了Trae
Young无论攻守两端都很合的搭档。失去Huerter与Gallinari可能会很难受,但带回Justin
Holiday对于轮值来说补进了很棒的外围球员。老鹰在去年赛季的不如预期之后知道他们不
能只是把现有的人留下而已。他们需要新血,而现在他们有真正的机会来在东区成为威胁。
11. LA Clippers
Major additions: John Wall (free agent)
Major subtractions: Isaiah Hartenstein (New York)
Did this team get better? The LA Clippers did get better, even though losing
Hartenstein turned out to be a big deal. John Wall should be a great
complement to what these guys want to do, even if he’s not the John Wall of
old. But this Clippers team’s improvement has everything to do with the
health of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. The Clippers could easily be a
top-five team all season long if they’re healthy. They can play with
anybody, and they can be contenders. But after the last few years of their
lack of health/bad luck, it’s difficult to outright believe in what they
will be. We just know what they can be. Let’s hope they’re healthy enough
to make this 11th ranking look foolish.
11.洛杉矶快艇
主要补强:John Wall(FA)
主要流失:Isaiah Hartenstein(纽约)
这队有变强吗?洛杉矶快艇是有变强,虽然失去Hartenstein变得非常巨大。John Wall应该
能很好的融入这支团队,即使他不再是过去的John Wall了。但这只快艇的进步完全是在于
Kawhi Leonard与Paul George的健康状态。快艇非常有可能成为整季前五的球队,前提是他
们健康。他们可以跟任何人对决,他们也可以是强力竞争者。但在过去几年他们的不健康/
厄运之后,很难直接无脑的相信他们能达到的高度。我们知道他们能成为什么。让我们希望
他们可以够健康来让这个第11名看起来很愚蠢。
12. Toronto Raptors
Major additions: Otto Porter Jr. (free agent), Juancho Hernangomez (free
agent)
Major subtractions: Isaac Bonga (free agent), Yuta Watanabe (free agent)
Did this team get better? The Toronto Raptors did get marginally better with
role players, but we’re trying to figure out if Masai Ujiri is going to make
a massive swing for Durant. The pickups of Porter and Hernangomez (aka “Bo
Cruz”) were nice, and re-signing Thaddeus Young was key, but it didn’t
address their lack of size in trying to contain someone like playoff foe Joel
Embiid. The Raptors are a really good and underappreciated team, though.
Their versatility defensively, especially on the perimeter, is what fuels
them, but what we saw out of Scottie Barnes as a rookie raises the potential.
They didn’t make any big changes yet but getting this team to jell a bit
more is the real plan … unless they can get KD.
12.多伦多暴龙
主要补强:Otto Porter Jr.(FA),Juancho Hernangomez(FA)
主要流失:Isaac Bonga(FA),渡边雄太(FA)
这队有变强吗?多伦多暴龙的确有在角色球员变强些,但我们还在想Masai Ujiri有没有要买
进Durant。签下Porter与Hernangomez(AKA "Bo Cruz")很不错,且签回Thaddeus Young很关
键,但这并没有解决他们缺乏大只佬的问题在季后赛防守如Embiid这种球员会很有困扰。暴
龙是一只非常棒且没有受到应有肯定的队伍。他们防守上的多工性,尤其是外围,是他们上
升的燃料,且我们在菜鸟Scottie Barnes的表现中看到他们更高的上限。他们还没做出任何
重大改变但是把这支球队变得更加稳固是真正的计画...除非他们可以得到KD。
13. Chicago Bulls
Major additions: Goran Dragic (free agent), Andre Drummond (free agent),
Dalen Terry (draft)
Major subtractions: Tristan Thompson (free agent), Troy Brown Jr. (Lakers)
Did this team get better? I think they did, as long as Drummond plays as he
did in Brooklyn. He found his role and some comfort with it, so adding that
depth behind Nikola Vucevic would be big. Dragic adds to a loaded backcourt,
but health could make opportunities scarce for them. The Chicago Bulls missed
out on Rudy Gobert, but they re-signed Zach LaVine to keep this team
together. When this team was healthy, they played great basketball, so maybe
they didn’t need big changes. They do need to find a consistent defensive
identity, but maybe a healthy Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso fixes that enough?
The Bulls are super talented, but they need to prove that matters against top
teams and in the postseason.
13.芝加哥公牛
主要补强:Goran Dragic(FA), Andre Drummond(FA),Dalen Terry(选秀)
主要流失:Tristan Thompson(FA),Troy Brown Jr.(湖人)
这队有变强吗?我觉得他们有,只要Drummond缴出他在布鲁克林的表现。他终于找到自己的
定位与一些舒适圈,所以增加在Vucevic之后的深度影响会很大。Dragic加入了人手充足的
后场,但健康可能会让这个机会很稀少。芝加哥公牛没拿到Rudy Gober但他们签回了Zach
LaVine来维持现有的阵容。当这队是健康的时候,他们打出很棒的篮球,所以他们可能不需
要大改变。他们事需要找到稳定的防守定位,但也许健康的Lonzo Ball与Alex Caruso可以
修正这一切?公牛非常有天分,但他们需要证明他们能在季后赛对决顶尖球队时能有一战之
力。
先翻完前三个Tier了 剩下的可能晚点或是明天再翻 太长了XD 大家可以看看这位写手对于
你们喜欢的球队的评价,顺便总结一下各队这次的休赛期。
