Which Playoff team will stay UNDEFEATED the longest?

We’re down to 3 teams left with perfect records in this post season and they all happen to be the Top 3 seeds in the West. Which of the 3 will stay undefeated the longest?

Probably OKC, because it looks like Denver vs Minny is a lock. OKC won’t lose either of the first two at home to Dallas.

Some of you get arrogant about your own team. I'm not that way, I still am not even putting Dallas in the 2nd round yet. If they win tomorrow I will, but last Sunday same time 3:30 they lost so the series could end up 2-2 with Clippers get hca back if they're not ready. But if they do get there, it's not impossible for them to win a game in OKC. The Mavs are not the Pelicans.

Clippers are done. I picked Dallas in 5 or 6 before the series started. With Kawhi looking like a shell, PG still looking like a playoff scrub, and Dallas being up 3-1 most likely tomorrow despite Luka and Kyrie not even getting going yet… Clippers have a 10% chance at best.

OKC has arguably the best playoff atmosphere and home court. The nerves have been worked out of those young guys with two monster blowout wins. I just don’t see Dallas winning either.

All Northwest Division teams.

I'd say Nuggets most likely. Sweep the Lakers. Just a much better team than LAL. But, we shall see.

As for the Thunder, very possible as well, but Pels mite play really hard to win at least 1 in this series (down 0-3).

TWolves? Very possible as well, but the Suns mite sneak in a win in this series (down 0-3).

I'd go with the Nuggets because A. I'm most convinced they'll sweep their current series and they have a huge homecourt advantage and the first two games of round 2 at home.

OKC probably sweeps NO but I think could easily be 1-1 vs Dal/LAC winner.

Minnesota may or may not sweep Phx but is at best getting out of Denver 1-1.
