Good Shape

Aloha,

As the season winds down it’s going to be a crazy finish. The five teams behind us all tied in the loss column and they are playing each other.

The Clippers play the Warriors and Rockets.
The Grizzlies play the TWolves and Nuggets and the Nuggets also play the Rockets.

We are in good shape. Our destiny is in our hands. One win ensures the 6th seed and two wins ensures the 3rd seed. Of course some of the teams behind us will lose at least one game because they play each other. Considering we hold all tie breakers, even if we lost 3 we more than likely would finish in the 4th or 5th seed.

Even the 2nd seed isn’t completely out of reach. But we would need to win out and the Rockets would have to lose all 3 of their games. Not impossible considering the Rockets play 3 really good teams to end the season.

One thing is for sure, barring an upset in the play in games. There will be no easy outs in the playoffs in the west. I can’t recall a time when all the teams in the west are so evenly matched.

It’s going to be wild.
