What the Heck Happened in the Pacific Division?

The Pacific Division is home to some of the most glamour franchises of the NBA. Since 2015, all eight organizations to represent the West at the NBA Finals have originated from the Pacific. With the division claiming five of the past eight championships between the Warriors and Lakers.

On the flip side, the division is also home to the NBA’s longest playoff drought. In many ways, the Sacramento Kings are the ugly stepson of the Pacific quintet, having not made the postseason since 2006.

With the Kings showing signs of improvement this offseason, there’s a world where all five teams in the division secure a playoff berth.
