The NBA’s regular season is reaching it’s waning moments. Teams across the league are jockeying for playoff positioning. Or, maybe additional ping pong balls in the draft lottery for organizations who have already punted toward the future.
For teams that hope to make some noise in the playoffs, though, now is the time to build some momentum to head into the postseason on a high note. In the stacked Western Conference, the Lakers are on a heater, hoping to assert themselves as a legitimate contender and the best of the second tier of the conference behind the Thunder and the Spurs. Speaking of Oklahoma City and San Antonio, both teams won’t stop winning. There’s still somewhat of a race for the top seed in the West, but the Thunder simply haven’t faltered enough to let the Spurs catch up.
