It's funny how much time we spend fixating on the NBA's regular season and analyzing everything based on that sample size when, often, the playoffs hinge on the healthiest remaining teams more than anything else.
As we get set for both the Western Conference Finals and Eastern Conference Finals over the next two weeks, there's a fair argument to make that the four squads left — the Oklahoma City Thunder, Minnesota Timberwolves, Indiana Pacers, and New York Knicks — are all, at least partly, only still standing because their main rotations remain intact and healthy.
