This season in the Western conference, the struggle for a playoff spot is probably the most intense in all of the NBA history. Right now I'm going to focus on the race to the 8th and final playoff spot. There are mainly two teams right now. The Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets will have to fight until the last minute of the season. The Dallas Mavericks used to be in this race, but with the surprise return of Dirk Nowitzki, they have pushed themselves higher and will probably gain the seventh spot. The Golden State Warriors have come off losses to New Orleans and Dallas, but took the easy matchup with a win against Memphis. The Nuggets lost to a close one with the Supersonics in double overtime. That should not be an excuse after beating the Sonics by 52 points over 20 days ago. There are still 5 games left in the season but only one playoff spot. These games will decide the winner. Tonight, the Warriors will battle the Kings at home while the Nuggets will travel to Los Angeles to play the Clippers.
