Here are my top 5 RealDeal Power Rankings for the week of December 4th!!!
Golden State Warriors (19-3) (This Week 2-1)
The Warriors maintain the top spot. They went 2-1 this week including a dominating win against the Phoenix Suns Friday Night. That snapped the Sun’s 17 game winning streak and also avenged their loss from Tuesday against the Suns. Steph Curry dropped 23 points including 6 3 pointers. The Warriors are on a mission and they are not even at full strength which can be scary for the rest of the league.
Phoenix Suns (19-4) (This Week 3-1)
Phoenix went undefeated during the month of November going 15-0. The Suns in a pivotal matchup against the Golden State Warriors won on Tuesday. Unfortunately star Guard Devin Booker suffered a hamstring injury which caused him to leave the game on Tuesday early. Booker is expected to miss the next few games. The Suns have a very well balanced team and should be able to manage while Booker is temporarily sidelined.
Utah Jazz (15-7) (This Week 3-0)
The Jazz are 7-3 in their last 10 games and currently on a 3 game winning streak.
They have a balanced team with a strong defensive anchor in Rudy Gobert.
With them healthy this team will be one of the best teams in the league and they multiple players who can either get their own shot or are knockdown shooters.
Chicago Bulls ( 15-8) (This Week 2-1)
The Bulls went 2-1 this week and are on a 2 game winning streak after two convincing victories against the New York Knicks and the Charlotte Hornets. Chicago has a great team defensively and 3 go to scorers who can get to their spots. In addition this time is primed to make a run at the Eastern Conference finals at a minimum. For the Bulls the Sky's the limit.
Brooklyn Nets ( 16-6) (This week 2-1)
The Nets have the best record against the Eastern Conference.
They are currently on 2 game winning streak, their will on most nights have the best two players on the floor in Kevin Durant and James Harden. The reason they are 5th is because whenever they play a team who can compete with them for the NBA Title this year they come up short and the games are not close. They have lost to both the BUlls and Warriors by double digits. The game against the Suns was not as close as the 113-107 final score would indicate. Until the Nets get a signature win they will stay at the 5th spot for me.
