Prediction of the top six rankings in the Western Conference this season: Thunder, Lakers, Wolves, Thorns and Gold

As the new season begins, let’s first predict the top six rankings in the Western Conference, which should be the Thunder, Rockets, Lakers, Timberwolves, Spurs, and Nuggets.

As the defending champion, the Thunder ranked first in the Western Conference last season and will still dominate the pack next season.

The Rockets maintain their ranking last season. Although Durant has joined, they are a defensive team and it is unrealistic to win more than the Thunder.

The Lakers have assembled the Big Three. As long as they stay healthy, they deserve to be third in the Western Conference. The key depends on James' attitude.

The Timberwolves rank fourth because Edwards has matured again and because the first three teams are indeed too strong.

The Spurs have Benyama and Dylan Harper, and Castle is also a potential star. No one dares to underestimate them.

The Nuggets are ranked sixth in the Western Conference, which fits their style. They play slowly and win without haste, because their real battlefield is the playoffs.

In the end, the Thunder and Rockets faced off in the Western Conference finals. After a tiebreaker, Houston narrowly defeated the Thunder and reached the finals.
