On December 8th, Beijing time, tomorrow's NBA regular season will have 4 battles between Eastern and Western teams, let's take a look at the preview of these 4 matchups!
The Nuggets avoided a losing streak
At 08:00 in the first game, the Wizards VS Nuggets
The Nuggets' lack of roster depth this season, coupled with Murray's inconsistent form, has made the Nuggets very reliant on Jokic's play. Jokic is averaging 29.9 points, 13.4 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game this season, and once he is off the court, the Nuggets are net minus 17.9 points per 100 possessions. In other words, if the Nuggets' management wants to compete for the championship and not waste Jokic's peak talent, they must strengthen it. Tomorrow's battle with the Wizards, the Nuggets must seize the opportunity to win, because the Wizards are a weak team, with only 2 wins so far and a 16-game losing streak. The Nuggets' injury report is that Gordon may play, and Murray and Sharic are doubtful.
The Mavericks are on a seven-game winning streak
At 08:00 in the second game, the Raptors VS the Mavericks
The Mavericks have won 10 of their last 11 games on a six-game winning streak and are tied with the Rockets' 15-8 record and only 2.5 wins behind the Thunder at the top of the table. Doncic has performed well since his comeback, with three consecutive 20+ games, two 30+ games, and one 21-point + triple-double. Irving has also shaken off the impact of the injury and has played in two straight games against the Wizards to score 25 points. Tomorrow away to challenge the Raptors, the Mavericks insist on team battles and hit 7 consecutive wins. The Raptors are not a strong team, they are in a rebuild, and they lost 92-129 to the Thunder in their last game. Six of the Raptors' seven wins so far have come at home, and tomorrow's game will defend them.
Remnant Sun
Game 3 at 09:00, Heat VS Suns
Without Durant, the Suns lost to the Pelicans 124-126 in their last game. Adu averaged 25.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, and was the Suns' scoring champion. Booker's performance this season is not as good as before, averaging 25.1 points and 3.8 rebounds per game, shooting 43.8% from the field, and as the team's second-in-command, he needs to carry the team. The Heat is a team with strong tactical literacy, with a current record of 10 wins and 10 losses, with Butler, Adebayo, Herro and others defending their home courts and hitting a winning streak.
Green Kai defends the home field
Game 4 at 09:00, Celtics vs. Grizzlies
The Grizzlies have won seven of their last eight games and are in hot form overall, with Morant having a bad hand against the Kings in his last game and being ejected in the final quarter, hoping he can regain his touch. Smart used to be a veteran of Green Kai, but he has not made his home debut at Green Kai since being traded, and his appearance in tomorrow's game is doubtful due to a sprain. Green Kai is a three-point team, today 111-105 narrowly defeated the Bucks to usher in three consecutive wins, tomorrow back-to-back games continue to defend the home court, impact four consecutive wins.
