With the Eastern Conference matchups set and the playoffs right around the corner, the only thing left before we can get the postseason is determining the 8th seed in the West.

After starting with six teams in contention for the final spot, the field has been significantly narrowed down over the last few weeks. The New Orleans Pelicans and Sacramento Kings were eliminated and sent home on Wednesday. The San Antonio Spurs after losing to the Utah Jazz. And the red-hot Phoenix Suns were sent home yesterday after the Portland TrailBlazers defeated the Brooklyn Nets. Now the race for the last spot comes down to two teams: the Portland TrailBlazers and the Memphis Grizzlies.

On this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the fellas discuss not only who they think will win the play-in game to take the 8th seed, but also how the winner could fair against the #1 seeded Los Angeles Lakers. Who do we have taking the 8th seed? Stay Tuned!
