    Who will take the 8th spot in NBA West conference?

    Right now Denver is holding the right spot. The Kings are 9th and port 10th. OKC is pretty safe I think in 7th. There are 6 teams who all have a chance to get that last spot in order to get swept by the warriors.


    Who takes it?

    Winner gets 100 points .

    Might be better to wait until after the trade deadline to have less unknown variables. I can see Adam silvers fingermen pulling strings for the kings but as of right now I'd lean Portland to make it

    All I know is Portland is not making it. Team is awful. Probably Denver but I wouldn't mind seeing the Kings.

    I have no idea who makes it, but playing the Warriors in a series could have a very negative effect on a young team.
    Not much learning to be had getting jacked by 25 every game.

    I think it would mean quite alot for boogie if the kings make the playoffs. Granted he is as talented as he is a mental midget, the elephant in the room will always be that he can't win despite his individual talent. Not saying he deserves it or that I'd like to personally see it happen just observing the facts.

    I'd rather see Minnesota get in behind KAT and wiggins even though the latter has underacieved at this point

    Denver.

    It's time to quit believing in Portland. They're a wreck and have ****** me over so many times this year. Last year was a fluke season.

    Pels are literally out of guards now I am not sure how much this helps in the short term when you factor in chemistry and the fact that 8 of 12 guys on roster are pf and C

    They are trading Terrance Jones which should bring them back a solid guard....Jrue is really good as the starting pg

    Dont see how New Orleans misses the playoffs....only 2.5 Games out right now

    They are 2.5 back of Denver who is playing well and also owns NO head to head for years. 3 games left vs Denver 2 on road, must win 2 to have any chance.

    Pelicans will easily make the 8th seed.

    Not even a question now.

    Goodnight Denver.

    I love how Goat Milk becomes instantly infatuated when big named players are put together.

    The Lakers and Dwight Howard and Steve Nash were going to be the best team ever.

    The Nets and Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce were about to make the best starting five ever.

    And now this.

    Settle down, skippy.

    The Brooklyn Nets have the best starting five in NBA history.

    Got D league call ups? Dime a dozen guards to be had that can dribble the ball up the court, quality big men that dominate the paint are a dying bread in the NBA.. Almost extinct..
