SAS has to go 20-0, if GSW breaks the record. And they would have to beat GSW three times to get 1st seed via tie-breaker. SAS has to go 19-1, if GSW ties the record. And they still might not win the tie-breaker. SAS has to go 18-2, if GSW loses 11 games. And so on. Normally you can look at Games Behind and say a team is not too far behind, but when you are chasing a 90% win team, you really have to pitch a shutout (borrowing a phrase from Bill Worrell). It's a huge up-hill climb for SAS. It isn't "very close" as you call it.

I say both teams will stumble towards the end, but with GSW falling behind SA. I boldly claim this and want this quoted if I turn out right (or wrong)
Trade harden for booker???? WHAT!?!??! Lol As harden drops 40/14/5 on 55% shooting. Smh harden has four 40 point 10 assist games this year the rest of the NBA has just 4. When booker puts up even a 30/7/3 game holler at me I'll be waiting. Booker is a Klay thompson type of guy harden is a superstar mvp player. 110 offensive rating with him 73 rating without. I rest my case.
