6th Seed Still Up for Grabs Out West

By HOOPSWORLD
Basketball News & NBA Rumors

If the Nuggets (37-28) win tonight’s regular-season finale at Minnesota, they will be the Western Conference’s No. 6 seed in the NBA playoffs — and will play the third-seeded Los Angeles Lakers in the first round, arguably a more enticing opponent than the second-seeded Thunder.

If the Nuggets lose tonight, they still have a shot at the No. 6 seed. Dallas plays at Atlanta. If Dallas loses, Denver is the sixth seed. But if Denver loses and Dallas wins, the Mavericks are sixth, and the Nuggets are seventh.
