The emotions of the 2022 season of the best basketball in the world, the NBA, continue in this new edition of the NBA Power Rankings and, in this final stretch, all the games are on fire since the teams that are at the top of the standings are fighting to get their pass straight to the postseason, while the rest are looking for a place in the Play-in that, little by little, is getting closer.
After an extraordinary rebound since the middle of the season, the Philadelphia 76ers are now the leaders of the Eastern Conference of the NBA, also taking advantage of the bad moment that the Heat have been experiencing in recent weeks. The Heat, after achieving their classification, lowered their foot on the accelerator and now have 4 consecutive losing games and have dropped to the second position in the table.
On the other hand, in the Western Conference, the Suns continue to show that they are the best team in the league this season and continue to extend their winning streak, which, until today, is in 7. While the Grizzlies are still in their great moment, you have to make the note that they are playing without their star Ja Morant.
