2017-18 NBA Power Rankings: Warriors, Celtics back on top in Week 13
In Week 13 of NBA Power Rankings, the Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics are back on top of their respective conferences.
Anything can happen come playoff time, and with the Feb. 8 trade deadline less than a month away, several playoff teams could look very different by April.
However, at about the halfway point of the season, the leaders of the Eastern and Western Conferences have begun to distance themselves from the rest of the pack once again.
In the East, the Boston Celtics have overcome a bit of a slump to create a 2.5-game gap between themselves and the No. 2 Toronto Raptors, who have been red-hot over the last few weeks as well.
In the West, the Golden State Warriors enjoy a massive four-game gap over the 2-seeded Houston Rockets, riding the hot hands of Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant despite both stars (and Draymond Green) missing games due to nagging injuries.
The question is, where does the rest of the pack fall in Week 13 of NBA Power Rankings? Here’s the latest batch.
