Looking at these west standings it's already looking like it could be a record amount of wins required to make the playoffs in the west. If you look at the standings there are 7 teams with a 70%+ win percentage.. And we know OKC is probably going to make a run for the playoffs as well..
Those 7 teams are all on pace right now to win 58+ games this season.. Now I have no doubt that won't happen.. But it's still concerning to think it may actually take 54-55 wins to make playoffs in the west because it's looking possible right now.
The only team of the 7 I think could drop off is Houston as the season wears them down.. Plus they have had a super easy schedule so far.. I think OKC and Phoenix will fight it out for the last playoff slot..
So my prediction..
53 wins to make playoffs this season in the west
