00:00J Y. Let's go to the top spot. Denver Nuggets, a huge victory
00:06earlier this week at home at altitude against the Minnesota
00:09Timberwolves to have that game advantage for the number one
00:13overall seed for the reigning NBA champs. As we look at the
00:17remaining schedule for the Nuggets, Tee Wolves, and
00:20Thunder. Denver, despite being both on the road, incredibly,
00:25incredibly beneficial. Well, the Nuggets, by the time we
00:29reach Sunday night, in the end of the regular season, be the
00:31top overall seed in the Western Conference. Yes, because if
00:35they lose to Memphis or San Antonio, let's be honest, Ben.
00:39They don't deserve the one seed if they lose one of those two
00:41games, even on the road. So, I think they become the one seed.
00:46The intrigue obviously goes to two, right? When you look at
00:50Minnesota and you look at OKC, it's kind of interesting to
00:54look at a team like Minnesota. They got Phoenix. Well, Phoenix
00:58is in a dogfight, right? Because they're going to try
01:00and get the six. So, they need to try and turn around and win
01:02that game. And then Atlanta, which I don't think they can
01:05pass Chicago because I think they're two games behind. So,
01:08that could be a rest game. So, that doesn't mean much.
01:11Meanwhile, Oklahoma City has Dallas, who may try to see if
01:14they can catch the Clippers for home court advantage. By the
01:18way, I can't wait for that series because Luka hates the
01:21Clippers more than any team in the league. So, that's going to
01:24be outstanding cinema. But then you look at the fact of
01:27Milwaukee. That's a game that's going to mean something
01:29because the Knicks may be trying to chase to get the two.
01:32So, to me, it's intriguing to me, but I still think it's
01:35probably going to end up in that same order. Denver one, two
01:39Minnesota, three OKC in the Western Conference.
