I completely love how open the west is this year.

OKC and Houston are currently the first two seeds, but both rosters are really young and remains to be seen whether they can keep performing in the playoffs.

I personally think Memphis and Phoenix could be deeper, and Golden State needs a real second scoring option to help Curry in the playoffs.

If I had to pick a team, I would go with Dallas returning to the finals because I see them only getting better as Luka and Kyrie improve their chemistry with Klay. I also wouldn't be surprised if Denver makes another deep run, simply because of how insanely well Joker is performing.
