when Gordon is healthy and we're clicking we look like a top 7 team in the west.

we have won a disproportionate amount of very close games... probably close to 75% of them, since Gordon's return. if we revert back to 40% winning of these close games the record wouldn't be nearly so shiny and finishing with a top 5 pick isn't as improbable as your numbers suggest.
So wouldn't being a top 7 team be the reason we win those close games? Good teams find a way or have enough good players to win. If that's the case then we shouldn't revert back to winning 40% unless something bad happened. I get why you want a higher pick, but there is no positive way to get what you want.

One of the biggest things I want to see this year is for our team to develop that killer instinct that wins close games. It seems like Vasquez and Gordon are pretty close to there. Anderson is capable of hitting some daggers, as well. We just need for that mentality and fortitude to get contagious and start spreading.
