Oregon Is Faster
Currently the Blazers are 3rd in the West. What is more fascinating is that difference between being 3rd in the West or 10th in the West is just 4 games.
4 games separate the 3rd seed and placing 10 in the Western Conference standings. Before the mega super team era, with just 20 something games left in the season this would be one of the wildest most intense playoff pushes ever, with such a heated race between teams 3-10.
But alas, it doesn't matter. With these mega super duper teams, whether you're 3rd seed or 8th seed, the only difference is are you going to be eliminated in the first round or second round. So even though I'd like to get excited about Portland's highest seed since, I don't know? The 2000's? All it means is they have a better shot at getting to the 2nd round than being eliminated in the first round.
