The San Antonio Spurs along with the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans are looking to make a big push for the final spot of the NBA Western Conference playoff picture. Their current record is 24-31 and they are 4 games behind the Memphis Grizzlies. On the road, this team has lost 19 of their 29 games and they need to find ways to improve on the road if they want to get a chance to get in the playoffs. DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge will always get good numbers but they will need their bench to step up big time.

The Oklahoma City Thunder is currently tied with the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Western Conference playoff picture and they sit at the sixth and seventh spot in the standings. They hope to get things going as they make a push to go higher and chase the Houston Rockets and Utah Jazz. They are off to a good start after the NBA All-Star Weekend and in their past ten games, this team has won seven games. Chris Paul may not be the top three scorers for this team but his leadership and basketball IQ is one of the best in the NBA. He will have the luxury to get assists from guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Dennis Shroder while Danilo Gallinari helps spread out the floor.
