It's all about health issues.
DEN will have to ride Jokic (MVP?) unless some of their injured players get back. Murray is out, Cancar is out, both for the season. MPG is D2D.
UTA has Whiteside, Bojan and House out, but don't know for how long.
GSW has Wiseman out for the season and Curry to be evaluated Friday for a foot sprain. Plus aches and pains for Thompson, Green and others.
MIN has Beasley out with an ankle sprain, but nothing else serious.
MEM has Morant out with a knee, due to be re-evaluated around the 5th. But they haven't missed a beat without him.
PHX just has late season aches and pains.
DAL traded away their main injury problem. THJ is still out, but everyone else seems relatively healthy.
Right now the 3/4 slot would play UTA or DEN. I think both are beatable, but DAL needs home court to insure most games are not at altitude.
Denver is at 5279 ft. (they don't call it Mile High City for nothing) and SLC is just over 4200 ft. DAL is at 430 ft.
