I remember it being bad that the Spurs & Mavs had to play in the second round, but I forgot the 4-seeded Mavs finished 16 games better than the 3-seeded Nuggets (the same record as the 8th-seeded Kings!). Wow!
1 z - San Antonio 63 19 .768
2 y - Phoenix 54 28 .659
3 y - Denver 44 38 .537
4 x - Dallas 60 22 .732
5 x - Memphis 49 33 .598
6 x - LA Clippers 47 35 .573
7 x - LA Lakers 45 37 .549
8 x - Sacramento 44 38 .537
Results 1 to 15 of 22

Yea West was pretty weak outside of Mavs/Spurs/Suns from 2005-2007, 100% serious..
Imagine if we had that LEGENDARY Mavericks/Spurs series in the WCF and not the WCSF.... Would have made it the GOAT series IMO if it turns out exactly the same...
Dirk and-one to deny the Spurs and Duncan their finals ticket in the dying seconds of game 7......

Denver won their division with 44-38 and automatically got the 3 seed. In fact, they went 1-3 in their H2H with the Kings, so if there wasn't a rule that the division winner automatically got a top-3 seed, the Nuggets would have missed the playoffs!

That led to the rule change where winning your division only guarantees you a top 4 spot. Not a top 3.
