    The western teams are so strong and so close.

    Is it possible that 60% winning team not making Playoff this year?

    Last year 50% was not enough

    We have 9 teams that are capable of winning 50+ games, and one of them is not going to make the playoffs.

    The bottom of the West is very weak this year so there is going to be a big gap between the No.9 and No.10 spots in the West. Due to the weakness of the bottom teams, it is possible that a team can win 60% of their games (mostly against crappy teams) and not make the playoffs.

    You say "weak", but the difference between 2 and 9 seeds is 4.5 games. If Rox lose 3 games in a row, which is entirely possible, we could be talking about the lottery when we should be talking championship.

    To me, that is not weak.

    Last year, 58.5% wasn't enough. The Warriors won 48 games and didn't make it.

    49 wins, which is 59.7%, wouldn't have got them in either so 60% basically wasn't good enough last season.
