It’s time to continue our weekly NBA Western Conference power rankings. From the the Los Angeles Lakers and New Orleans Pelicans battling to escape the 15th spot, to everyone else attempting to catch the Golden State Warriors, the West is well and truly wild. Yet, it’s been far from thrills for everyone so far.
The aforementioned teams at the bottom of the West have combined for three wins, while the Portland Trail Blazers are reversing towards them after going 0-5 last week to plummet in our rankings. And, as expected, the tirelessly consistent San Antonio Spurs have once again started their season as they mean to go on.
