With 1 more win, the Warriors will hold the 5th seed in the West

If we can manage to pull out a win against the Lakers, we will have the 5th seed and we have one of the easier schedules left to end the season out of the western conference playoff contenders. Staying in this position would be huge and almost guarantee a playoff spot with chemistry growing, our injury hump (hopefully) behind us, and an easier schedule to come.
