The Dallas Mavericks‘ playoff future is still in doubt entering the final week of the regular season.
As of May 11, the Denver Nuggets and LA Clippers are separated by only one game for the third and fourth seeds in the Western Conference. Dallas and Portland are separated from fifth and sixth by just a half a game with the Trail Blazers holding the tiebreaker. If the Los Angeles Lakers’ skid continues down the stretch, these four teams will face each other in the first round of the playoffs in some order.
