The Oklahoma City Thunder is locked into the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference playoffs, which means it will play the No. 6 seed in the first round. Three games Wednesday will determine if the Thunder plays Portland, Dallas or Memphis in the first round.
Here’s what would need to happen for the Thunder to play either of the three opponents:
THE THUNDER PLAYS DALLAS IF:
Dallas beats San Antonio
Portland beats Denver
Why: Portland would remain the No. 5 seed, finishing with a better record (44-38) than Dallas (43-39).
