Who makes the Playoffs in the West now?
How much does the Ron Artest trade effect the playoff race in the West.I have
to think their chances are improved a lot,but I don't think this automatically
makes them a playoff team.Utah and the TWolves could also catch the nuggets as both of them have led the NW in the last week or so.

Not at all for the Kings. I'm guessing that Clippers and Utah fall out and Minnesota and New Orleans make it.

Re: Who makes the Playoffs in the West now?
Sacramento, on paper looked great, but very few forget, that's how they started out the year....basically NOPE. NOK AND UTAH, I agree.

Re: Who makes the Playoffs in the West now?
5th seed is still up for grabs imo, I mean the Grizzlies have lost 4 of 5, but if the Clippers had done that right about now, everyone would say there out of the race. Still think Memphis will take 5th, Clippers taking 6th. 7th I say goes to the Nuggs and 8th to the Hornets.

Utah or Denver, forgot to put that my bad, one of them gets third and other gets 7th

EDIT: Minny as well but I don't want them and want Clips to get their pick next year

Re: Who makes the Playoffs in the West now?
They (ESPN) are saying that Artest has stated he does not want to be traded to the kings. So the kings rejected the trade.
