After the excitement the beginning of the NBA season brings, the end of the regular season is what everybody looks forward to. The Playoff races and the battle for positions in both conferences towards the end of the regular season makes every game vital and its results have a huge impact on the standings.
As of Monday, there are three Playoffs battles going on. One for the last three spots in the Western Conference between the Portland Trailblazers, Utah Jazz, Houston Rockets and the Dallas Mavericks. All four teams are fighting for the spots and are separated by only two and a half games.

The other two Playoff battles are in the East. One being for the seventh and eighth seed between the Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons, the other is a four team tussle between the Atlanta Hawks, Miami Heat, Boston Celtics and the Charlotte Hornets to determine the seeds from third to sixth.
The Pacers are currently in seventh leading the Pistons by half a game. The recent slide of the Chicago Bulls has practically finalised the eight teams in the East for the Playoffs, now it’s all about the seeds.
In the four-team group, the Hawks are currently leading the pack. All four teams are separated by only two games. So each game for all teams is vital to finalising their Playoff seed.
