Would you agree that anyody can beat anybody in the west? Playoffs

[TAZORAC]

Aside from the Spurs and the Rockets, and when the Lakers get back Lonnie Walker (teams 4th leading scorer) and Anthony Davis (teams 1st leading scorer) that in a 7 game playoff series, its up for grabs as too who could win?

Although I do think the Suns who's currently in 11th is slightly better than everybody else although it made seem strange.

You think SAC is finally winning a series in the postseason?

They can, although they are one of those teams who could finish 2nd in the regular season and lose to a play in team very easily.

Who can beat who in a seven game series? The east looks mapped out but the west is weird. It’s Denver’s conference to win though.

Although the Nuggets are in 1st place, their not head and shoulders above anybody else.

[NBAGOAT]

Not quite since some teams just matchup poorly with other teams. I really have a hard time seeing the clippers beat the nuggets for example

[StrongLurk]

I think Grizzlies and Nuggets are real contenders...Pelicans and Kings are not real contenders.

I wish. but the west is so deep this year

[ArbitraryWater]

genuiney, yea.

[Full Court]

Not ANYBODY...but it's tough to say who's going to come out of the West. It's between the Nuggets, Grizzlies, Pelicans, Clippers, and Lakers. I've got the Grizzlies as my pick to go to finals, but it's nothing close to a lock, that's for sure.

what about healthy suns or mavs? or warriors?

I don't think those teams have what it takes to get past the ones I mentioned. You never know though - I could be wrong.

Clippers and lakers over warriors is just weird imo. Warriors aren’t behind either team by record and were champions last year. Alright I’ll ignore the lakers because that discussion would include lebron but how are clips even more talented than warriors? Clips have all average or below average players around kawhi and George, warriors still have their core from last year

The two teams I can see beating nuggets in the playoffs are if the warriors have a resurgent post-all star break run or the clippers if they finally get healthy once and for all. The lakers too but I have doubts about ADs health. Nuggets always seem to struggle against a healthy lakers squad. Everyone else I think Nugs match up well with and there really is no unbeatable team in their way. This is the most healthy and stacked nuggets team of the jokic era. They are playing better than anyone in the west right now. Like I said it’s finals or bust for them.

The Nuggets struggle with the LAKERS, and the LAKERS don't match up well with the Suns, because the Suns spread the ball and are good 3 point shooters
