At this point, while the Rockets appear to be the favorites to keep the No. 2 seed and the Mavericks seem destined for No. 7, there's still a few plausible options at hand. We've debated them on end, but let's turn this to a vote. Ignore what is most likely and vote on who you'd prefer to see.
I'm going to rule Portland out as a plausible option, and that will help even out this poll, since they would receive a lot of votes with their injuries. So let's decide between:
- Houston Rockets
- Memphis Grizzlies
- Los Angeles Clippers
- San Antonio Spurs
Vote and discuss in the comments.
