It’s that time of year again! The most exciting time in sports! The NBA playoffs are coming. The playoff race is tight as ever in both conferences for the first time in a long time: the East, where one game separates the sixth and ninth spots, and the West, where there is a four and a half game difference between the third seed and the eighth seed. After last night’s blowout victory, the Los Angeles Lakers crushed the Charlotte Hornets’ hope of making the playoffs this season, barring a catastrophic implosion by any of the four teams ahead of them.  The East is probably having their most exciting playoff race in a long time, with the Detroit Pistons, Brooklyn Nets, Orlando Magic and Miami Heat all fighting to finish with the sixth seed and avoid being swept by the Milwaukee Bucks or Toronto Raptors. The West’s playoff race is already locked in with the Golden State Warriors, Denver Nuggets, Portland Trail Blazers, Houston Rockets, Utah Jazz, Los Angeles Clippers, San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder all having clinched their breaths in the postseason.
