The Pacific Division has long been one of the stronger divisions in the NBA. Rotating between the Suns, Warriors and Lakers, the last eight NBA Finals have seen the Western Conference represented by the division.

The cyclical nature of the NBA — and the Kings always being bad — meant that the division rarely saw all five teams field competitors at the same time. This season, though, represents an opportunity for the division to make NBA history to become one of a short list to put every team in the postseason.
