Most of the top teams in both Conferences have tumbled in the last couple of weeks. Take the Brooklyn Nets who have lost 7 in their last 11 or the Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, and Utah Jazz all of them have lost four or more in their last 7 outings.
Phoenix Suns and Memphis Grizzlies from the West are a few of the top-4 teams that are unfazed by the Christmas or New Year break. The latter has been one of the biggest surprises this season. Everyone believed in the Grizzlies to put up a great fight this season after their last year’s performance.
But nobody expected them to be the top-4 team in January. While top projected teams are struggling to get on a winning streak, the Memphis team went on some incredible winning runs. One of them was without their MVP Ja Morant who was with an injury, and they went 10-2. Before that, they were a game below the .500 mark.
Now they are on a 13-1 run with Ja which is the hottest streak in the NBA, erasing a silly doubt in some people’s mind that whether his team was better without him.
NBA Twitter is again in awe of Ja Morant’s supreme basketball skills
NBA Twitter forced the 2020 Rookie of the Year out of social media when he came back and the Grizzlies went 0-3 after their first hot streak. The point guard kept his distance from the toxicity of social media for a few days until he led his team back to a winning streak which is even better than their last one.
He even led them to a 119-106 victory against the best in the East, the Chicago Bulls. So now the Twitterattis are in awe of Ja Morant’s incredible performances and mesmerizing moves.
What better way to shut your critiques up?
