    Off of basketball-reference.com I took the schedule of the Cavs/Warriors/Rockets

    Tabulated the opponents of each team separately to this date.

    Warriors: opponents win percentage .490 or 49.0% (.035 difference of that of Rockets)
    *Cavs: opponents win percentage .485 or 48.5% (.030 difference of that of Rockets)
    Rockets: opponents win percentage .455 or 45.5%

    All 3 team facing opponents win percentage averaging below .500 or 50%

    Edited: *Boston was actually the team instead of Cavs (with opponents avg win % of 48.5%) listed above.
    Cavs: opponents win percentage .449 or 45.0%

    If the playoffs started today, we'd see POR (beatable), SAS and then GSW before either CLE or BOS.

    Pressure is not off. If anything, there's even more pressure for us to get the 1 seed.

    It feels like we have to win around 68 games to have a chance at first seed, Warriors are still too good.
