Currently 6 games out of the 8th spot. 6.5 games out of the 6th spot.
The bottom 3 spots will be up for grabs between 5 teams (Golden State, Phoenix, Dallas, Memphis, and Minnesota). The way I see it, it's a race to the 47 win mark. 48 gets in for sure, 47 takes a 7/8 seed, and 45 or fewer is left on the outside.
Look for the T-Wolves to make a push. They are the biggest long-shot of the 5 but I like their chances. They will go on a run now that the Kevin Love trade talks are in the rear view window.
