Progsport Basketball Prediction

Golden State, deprived of Jimmy Butler, has lost 6 of its last 9 games in the NBA. It's simply a disaster for a franchise as ambitious as Golden State. The second blow arrived after the announcement of the transfer of Porzingis which immediately put an end to any rumor concerning the arrival of Giannis. The Golden State Warriors traveling to the Lakers last weekend lost 105-99 in front of a team deprived of Doncic. Certainly 11th in the Western Conference, Memphis 20 wins - 31 losses nevertheless remains behind 10th Portland 25-28. A gap that became immense after Portland won its two direct confrontations in the Moda Center against the Memphis Grizzlies this weekend. The first match on Saturday turned into a disaster for Memphis 135-115, but during the second the franchise was well in its match. Ahead 97-104, Memphis did not keep up the pace, losing 122-115, dropping the last quarter 34-19. 

The Los Angeles Lakers 5th, 32 wins -19 losses, they are winning games at the moment. LeBron James' partners have won their last 3 duels. If the success against the Nets on the road in New York seemed obvious 109-125 for the Lakers, the latter increased the slider by winning the following matches in front of the Philadelphia 76ers 119-115 and the Golden State Warriors 105-99 at home in order to take place in 5th position. The pressure is growing on the shoulders of the OKC Thunder. Beaten 5 times in the last 8 games, the champion is at the same pace as the New Orleans Pelicans in the last 10 games. But what is even more problematic is the unavailability of SGA with which the Thunder must now deal. The Thunder star saw his partners fall to OKC 116-106 a few days ago and to the Houston Rockets on Saturday night 106-112. Two defeats in a row for the Thunder. 

A quick word to remind you that the Thunder is in difficulty, no longer has 5 defeats in 8 games but Minnesota is not taking advantage of it. Unfortunately for them, the Wolves are losing ground in 6th place in the Western Conference. The record remains very good 32 wins - 22 losses but moving forward is urgent, especially after losing the last two games to the New Orleans Pelicans 115-119 and the LA Clippers 96-115, however deprived of James Harden and Ivica Zubac who left the franchise. The Atlanta Hawks 9th, 26 wins -28 losses were the first to move a lot of things in the Eastern Conference. The movements around T.Young and then Porzingis have not gone unnoticed. Even if in fact Atlanta seems to have lost out, it got rid of two boys who were too often injured. 48 hours ago, a bit like everyone who crosses paths with the Hornets, the Hawks lost to LaMelo and his gang by a score of 119-126 at home. After two victories against Miami and Utah.
