NBA Rankings - 30 Nov

The Milwaukee Bucks did not lose a game over the last 2 weeks, so they were able to keep their spot at the top of the rankings, but the hottest team over that stretch was Dallas, who went 6-1, including consecutive 40-point blowouts of Cleveland and Golden State. Luka Doncic averaged a triple-double over the month of March, just the third player ever to achieve the feat, and he could join the other two in averaging a triple-double over an entire season. Here are my full current rankings and playoff picks:
