With Minnesota on the verge of losing Jimmy Butler, where do you think the New Orleans Pelicans finish in the West and why?
Kevin: 5th seed
I don’t think the mess in Minnesota changes where the Pelicans will finish because I’ve always had them ahead of Timberwolves. I believe that New Orleans will finish as the 5th seed this season, and unless Butler ends up in Portland or Denver, I don’t see how any potential trade affects the Pels in the standings.
Jamile: 5th seed
The Warriors and Rockets are still at the top of the conference, but after that, the picture gets much cloudier.
