Our bi-weekly look at the West goes in order of net rating:

• PHX: A breakdown of how this team is so good offensively despite the relative lack of star power, plus Deandre Ayton’s defense
• NOP and MEM: We caught the Pels on the wrong night against Memphis, but how much does this performance signal potential weaknesses that good teams like Memphis can exploit?
• GSW and MIN: The Warriors are getting back on track with some rotational changes, while the Golden State stress test exposes the work the Wolves still have to do
• DAL: A loss to Toronto exposed how the Mavs’ secondary players have been letting them down so far this season.
• UTA: How has the offense changed with Mike Conley out, and what is their secret defensive weakness?
