The west is too tight, and the team that has a let up may miss the playoffs. If the jazz were not winning their division they would barely be in the playoffs, and Denver is not that far back with the amount of games that remain. Here is my prediction: 1. San Antonio 2. Lakers 3. Houston 4. Jazz 5. Suns 6. New Orleans 7. Dallas 8. Denver San Antonio does not have too many more games against playoff contenders so I think they will finish 1st or 2nd. Lakers are banged up including Kobe and they have some tough games coming up so I think they take the 2 spot. It is a toss up between Houston, Suns, NOH because either of those thems could take the 3 spot. Houston has a tough week and it will determine a lot, they may fall to the 6 spot. Sun do not have too tough of schedule and I see how they could gain some ground and maybe take the 3 spot if they are lucky, but I think they will play the Jazz in the 1st round or Houston will. NOH has some big games coming up too and could also fall to the 6 spot. I think Dallas will remain either 7th or 6th. Now if Denver can win and Warriors (who have some tough games to play) loose then Denver will take the 8th spot. Hopefully the Jazz do not have a fall off in play cause they could fall to 8th too. ( I don't think so though) Either way if you want to make the playoffs in the west you can not lose more then 30 games this year. The team who falls below 30 in the lose column does not make the playoffs period. Ok you might be able to get there with 31 loses, but no more then that.

I was impressed by how good of defense Boston plays and how quick Rondo is. They didn't give us anything, we went and took it.
