The 27 games or so are going to be thrilling for the top 4 in the west. Nobody wants the 4 seed as you’d likely have to play PHX, then Twolves and Clippers/OKC all on the road to even make the finals. Where you’ll probably be on the road against the Celtics.
Would absolutely love the team to pull their heads out of their asses and get a top 2 seed, only 1.5 games out of 2nd. Because as much faith as i have in this team, a PHX, Wolves, OKC/Clips is a goddamn gauntlet to have 2/3 matchups on the road.

I’m hoping we get to 2 or 3 at least if we end up at 4 that’s a tough 1st round series
3 of top 5 all in our division says a lot
assuming OKC and MIN stay the top 2, teams might actually “tank” alittle to get those 2 guys for the playoffs. Reminds me of the Kings last playoff.
Vets like the Lakers and GSW are masters of figuring out any weaknesses in a bo7 and I think golden state actually matches up the best against the wolves.
LAC and PHX are even scarier in the first round when all their vets are fresh.
Every comment in this thread has some really good points
Playoff tickets are going to be so expensive I just hope we sweep every round.
You’d never know it.
NBA is more balanced than ever, every game matters. Legends like Curry and LeBron struggling to make playoffs
And league media never talk about it
We the only ones on a losing streak
Feels weird
West is a bloodbath.
As much as we might complain about the current standings and worry about who we might play in the playoffs, I can promise you that any of the teams mentioned here would be more worried about facing the nuggets than vice versa.
Forget getting a top 2 seed
How do we even manage to stay in the top 4?
We are one bad week from falling into the play in game
If Denver is healthy, they repeat.
Is it too early again to talk about how trash the East is?
If Nuggets end up 4th seed and things play out like OP said, and they lose, they will never hear the end of how easy their competition was for their championship. Sigh
Cant believe we dropped a Kings game at home..and most likely cause we didn’t rest Murray on hard road b2b so he got injured in Sacramento
