In this episode, Matt Thomas, Justin Goodrum, and Alan Muenzler break down their 2025–26 NBA Western Conference predictions — from the bottom feeders to the top contenders. Who will rise, who will fall, and can OKC repeat as Western Conference champions?
We cover all the biggest storylines across the NBA West:
Will Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets finally make a deep playoff run?
Can Victor Wembanyama elevate the San Antonio Spurs to contender status?
Is Luka Doncic ready to carry the Lakers to another top seed?
Have the Warriors and Clippers run out of time?
And what does the future look like for Ja Morant, Anthony Edwards, and Nikola Jokic?
From the Utah Jazz’s rebuild to the Thunder’s title defense, the Hoopsology crew dives deep into analytics, coaching changes, player fits, and bold hot takes that might surprise you (yes, the Timberwolves get roasted).
