SB Nation Reacts results: Where will the Rockets finish in the NBA Western Conference?

The national poll results are in!

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Rockets fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

We didn’t have a regular Rockets question this week, but Houston featured prominently in the national Reacts poll when it asked our league-wide readers to rank the top placed teams in the Western Conference this season. If you’re a member of Reacts, these national polls are coming straight to your e-mailbox. If you’re not, click the link above to be a member and get to vote in all of the national polls.

Anyway, here’s where the fans league-wide think the final west standings will end up:

The fan consensus is that the Rockets will end up with a four-seed. Some may think that’s too low. I think that anywhere from three to five will be right where the team ends up. The west is as big as a meatgrinder as ever, and Houston’s depth without three starters from last season will be tested once Kevin Durant starts missing some games.

This week’s Reacts is once again brought to you by FanDuel. Head over to their NBA page for game lines, player props, parlays, and title odds. If you use the link in this post, you’re helping us out at TDS as well.

We’ll have more Reacts soon!
