Anuston Lockets will finally win the #2 to justify the "2nd seed" hype that has been haloing around them since 2010, and the Mavs - Lockets matchup would be great entertainment (sponsored by the "blue Hulk smashing Lockets" video). Spurs will tank some games preceding the playoffs and drop to #4 intentionally, so they'll draw the Guest team for the first round which will turn out to be the easiest matchup of all four 1st round series in the west. Monkeyball and Golden state matchup would be fun to watch, but fans who watch the game to enrich their basketball tactical knowledge rather than for entertaining purposes will probably turn their attention to other matchups, imho.

Don't tell me what to do.

[TD 21]

1. Thunder
2. Spurs
3. Clippers
4. Rockets
5. Trail Blazers
6. Warriors
7. Mavericks
8. Grizzlies

I don't think the Suns get pushed out. There's no reason to think they will, they are playing too well. I don't think the Grizz make it in. They have a new coach and plenty of excuses to not win. If they still had Hollins, they'd be in the hunt for 3rd right now. Stupid fucking move tbh.

I think the Warriors might move down the list and end up at 8.

So I have it like this:

1 Thunder
2. Spurs
3. Blazers
4. Rockets
5. Clippers
6. Suns
7. Mavs
8. Warriors

Memphis won 5 games in a row before losing to bobcats tonight imho. They can still put up a legit run for a playoff spot and they'd be a tough matchup against Methlahoma in the first round if they clinched the #8 seed, considering what they did on OKC last season, and what they managed to do in the 10-11 season also as the #8 seed.

[Thebesteva]

More importantly, who is winning the more important race?

10 Jazz
11 Kings
12 Lakers

[Seventyniner]

OP didn't say top 8 only.

1. Thunder
2. Spurs
3. Rockets
4. Clippers
5. Warriors
6. Grizzlies
7. Blazers
8. Mavs
9. Suns
10. Wolves
11. Pelicans
12. Nuggets
13. Lakers
14. Jazz
15. Kings

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

1) Thunder
2) Spurs
3) Rockets
4) Clippers
5) Warriors
6) Blazers
7) Suns
8) Grizzlies

Really want the Mavs to get in, can't see them being consistent enough.
