Come now, no option to move up? Certainly the Rockets are pretty much locked out of the top three, but fourth is still an option. I think this team still has the opportunity to improve greatly by the end of the season, and I think they will improve to at least some extent - but in the West "some extent" is at best going to hold their current spot. 5th is what I'm sticking with.
They are just too damn inconsistent to move up to #4 .... even with CP3 out the Clippers are playing better ball. They'll likely stay at the #5 seed , no home court in the post season.
It's going to get tough to move up. Memphis is roaring back with Gasol in the lineup again and even without CP3, the Clippers have been taking care of business. The top 4 teams are basically locked in to stay there.
5th seed but 4th best record in the West is what I think. Wouldn't be surprised with 3rd. Lot of games left, possible trades, possible injuries and possible meltdowns from other teams.
