If the Kings want to play Warriors in the 1st round, then the chance is greater if they lose the game to the Warriors on Friday...like 90% chance.
If the Kings want to play the Lakers in the 1st round, then they must beat the Warriors on Friday and Warriors could lose the final game @Portland (50/50 chance).
The reason I predicted that is because I think the Clippers will win out the next two especially because the Suns are resting their starters. Also, the Suns would rather face Clippers than the Warriors...so by losing to the Clippers, they ensure Clippers stay at the #5 seed.
