However...
If the Clippers or Warriors want to avoid the Suns in Round 1 and would prefer to play the less playoff experienced Kings, then one of those two teams could opt to try and tank against the Blazers to ensure a matchup with Sacramento instead of Phoenix.
Will be interesting to see if LAC or GSW goes that route or not.
The only problem with that is that they could fall into the play-ins with NOP right behind them. NOP owns the tiebreaker against LAC but GSW owns the tiebreaker against NOP. Lots of stuff going on with these tight standings
