Which of these four teams will make the Western Conference Finals?

Call your shot. I'm torn between Nuggets and Thunder, which means it's probably going to be the Blazers. But how can you have confidence in any of these teams?

I'm tempted to say OKC, but the Nuggets had their number this season. To be fair, that might not matter since you can throw out regular season series records unless it's obvious that one team is better. I think I'll say Denver just because I think Paul George will struggle in the playoffs again, and Portland doesn't have the look of a WCF team to me. I can't wait to be wrong.

whichever team it is, the 2nd round series between the warriors and rockets/jazz will be infinitely more competitive.

Man, I have absolutely no idea. I can't remember a time where the three best teams in a conference ended up on the same side of the bracket.

Maybe Golden State and Houston will beat each other up enough to give one of these teams a chance in the WCF...but I doubt it. All 4 teams are very, very flawed.
