He Playoff and Play-In of the Western Conference has become the craziest and most interesting incentive of the last days of the NBA. There are two games left for most teams and there are three powerful projects in the West that will play for qualification in their 81st and 82nd games of the season. The Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers, tied with 45 wins and 35 losses.
West Ranking
- 6 New Orleans Pelicans. 48-32
- 7 Phoenix Suns. 47-33
- 8 Sacramento Kings. 45-35
- 9 Golden State Warriors. 45-35
- 10 Los Angeles Lakers. 45-35
Curry leaves a layup.
If a few weeks ago the Lakers seemed determined to propel themselves to the post-season, The Warriors took over and are going like shots. Eight of the last 10 wins put them ninth, ahead of the Lakers and tied with Sacramento. The Suns have two more wins and can still think about being sixth. Even so, the San Francisco Bay smiles when it reaches its natural territory, that of distributing the title of champion.
Los Warriors continued their climb by taking Portland with a good 92-100 victory. Both Klay Thompson and Draymond Green were missing, with Stephen Curry shining with 22 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists. He reached 350 triples scored in the season, his third time on that record. Only one other player, James Harden, has been able to reach that number in his career. Among all the others there is no one.

In addition to Curry, Chris Paul was up to the task in Portland and closed the game with a decisive front three-pointer. Also worth highlighting is the magnificent work under the boards by Kevon Looney (9 points and 11 rebounds), in addition to his pass to Brandin Podziemski to build the streak that ended up eliminating the Blazers. Ayton’s 25 or Scoot Henderson’s 18 were not enough.
If we could change the past, we would all be happy and content with our roles. But that’s not how life works
Steve Kerr
Los Warriorsafter everything experienced in a strange course with a suspension of one of their key pieces, Draymond Green, included, they are still standing and will reach the Playoffs like a shot. “There is no doubt that our beginning made us better. If we could change the past, we would all be happy and content with our roles. But that is not how life works. Each of these kids has their circumstances, incredible pressure and they have managed to achieve to that place where the efforts are worth it,” said Steve Kerr, their coach. They warn the Lakers and the West. Have they come back?
