okc and houston look far better team as a cohesive unit this season. if you analyse their losses, the rockets have lost when they haven't had all their starters available, notably cp3
and in OKC' s case, they are hard as hell to beat this season with majority if their defeats being close games and are one of the best defensive teams in the league.
warriors on the otherhand are turnover machine and have looked disjointed all season. logically, they shouldn't make jt out of the west unless they improve significantly come playoffs.
