Playoff seedings falling into place.....

[Draco]

So, if you're the L*ker, Mavs or Thunder, who do you want to play? Here's my opinion:

L*kers
1. Hornets
2. Blazers
3. Nuggets

Mavs
1. Nuggets
2. Hornets
3. Blazers

Thunder
1. Blazers
2. Hornets
3. Nuggets

Lakers can't play the Nuggets
Thunder can't play the Hornets.

I thought each team could end up at #2, #3 or #4. I guess I was wrong. Thanks for the correction. Repped.

Soooo ... the playoff seedings in the West won't fall into place until the regular season is complete.

Great thread.

What's your problem? I've been updating throughout to show all the possibilities as they are slowly eliminated. What's wrong with that? It's good to see who's up for each seed or whenever they have been eliminated from that possibility. No, we did not have to wait til tonight to discover all of this. It was a gradual process of elimination. And still is.

Read post #51. That is why I started this thread. To show who could get each seed. If you read my update, you would've seen that, after last night, it was impossible for the Lakers to fall to the 4th seed.

Should be a interesting playoffs. See if the Grizz are happy that they got the Spurs like they successfully tank to get to play. Same with the Blazers, not that we tanked, but we wanted to play the Mavs. Now hopefully it won't be careful for what you wish for.

For me, it's nice that I finally get to root for Monty. Early in the season, I was rooting against the Hornets because I wanted their draft pick to be as high as possible. After we made the Crash trade, I rooted against them because we were neck-and-neck in our seedings. My sister lives in NO, but grew up HATING the L*kers, so this will be a nice series for her.

Go Hornets!
