    The first 7 seeds are almost guaranteed locks to make the playoffs in the west so that just leaves PHX. Denver and New Orleans trail slightly behind the Thunder and will not make the playoffs due to injuries and experience. I think almost everyone will agree that Thunder are more than capable of taking that last spot, BUT, they may have dug themselves too deep into a hole without Durant and Westbrook and I'm not sure if they can win all the games they need to with PHX losing enough games to give away their spot.

    I don't think they'll make it, unless one of the top 8 teams suffers a significant injury. The Thunder just dug themselves into a deep hole. There's really no team that will drop out. The Suns would've been the team you would think would fall out of the playoffs, but with Alex Len emerging as a terrific shot blocker and the addition of Brandan Wright, they've got a pretty good defensive frontcourt. As of now, I think the team most likely to lose their spot is the Clippers, that's only if their chemistry doesn't get better and if Doc keeps making idiot trades.

    thunder will knock out the suns. Sun's are a great team, don't get me wrong. But a team with 2 of the best 5 players in the league won't miss the playoffs. They should make it to at least the WCF.

    Lol phoenix suns. Suns will begin to lose games after the allstar break where okc starts beating on the free win teams. If im golden state. I would be shitting my pants if they to face a healthy okc team in the 1st round. San Antonio who was a power house defense team couldnt guard durant and westbrook, u think no d warriors can handle them? Lol
