The regular season in the NBA will close tonight (Sunday) with no less than 15 games that will be played in two games at convenient times for the Israeli viewer (8:00 PM and 10:30 PM).
Most of the positions are already closed, but as for Golden State, the champion, it is currently in sixth place in the West and could also finish fifth, but it is not sure that it should because fifth place will "set up" a very difficult playoff meeting for it against the Phoenix of the former Kevin Durant, while sixth place will set it up for a more comfortable meeting Against the less powerful Sacramento.
On the other hand, a loss by Golden State and wins by New Orleans and the Lakers could relegate the champion to the play-in tournament.
Will they meet in the first round of the playoffs?

But Klay Thompson, the sniper of the Warriors, is less worried about the opponents in the playoffs and trusts his team a lot, or we can say a little arrogant.
The guard referred to the upcoming playoffs and said: "I don't see any team that can beat us in a seven-game series when we're healthy."
Golden State lost 38 games this season mainly because of long-term injuries to Steph Curry, when Andrew Wiggins, one of last season's standouts, did not play for a long time due to personal problems.
Remember, the Warriors' season started off on the left foot with the fight between Draymond Green and Jordan Paul.
"If we play the way we know how, we will be in a great position to refit and restore the championship," Thompson added.
"It's a good problem for us, we can control our destiny," Di Vincenzo commented on Golden State's playoff possibilities, "we'll just try to win and whatever happens will happen. We don't want to play in the playoffs."
