W.C Playoffs

OK, the following divisions have had all its teams make the playoffs (note that I'm only including divisions of 5+ teams):

1983-84 Atlantic Division (5 teams)
1985-86 Midwest Division (6 teams)
2005-06 Central Division (5 teams)

NBA-wise, that's it. I'm not bothering to look into the ABA.

Wow 2005-2006? I would have thought it would be like the 70s or something if at all.

What are the chances the playoffs look something like this:

1.OKC
2. Lakers
3. S.A.
4. Utah
5. Clips
6. Denver
7. Portland
8. Minny

That leaves out notables Dallas and Memphis. Has an entire division ever made the playoffs before?

I could possibly see Dallas missing the playoffs as this season is mostly about just keeping water out of the boat and going for a home run in FA next year. I honestly don't see how Memphis would finish behind Portland and Minnesota unless they had a rash of injuries. I would even say that Memphis will probably finish ahead of Utah and Denver.
 
It sursprises me that there's not more years this happened recently.
Especially in the East before the big 3 homos went to Miami.

In the Atlantic you have Toronto and New Jersey. In Central you have Detroit and now Cleveland. In Southeast you have Charlotte and Washington.

In Pacific you have Golden State, Sactown and now Phoenix. In Northwest you have Minny (maybe not anymore). In Southwest you have Nawlins.

I thought all 5 teams being playoff bound would be exceedingly rare.

More likely something like this:
1. OKC
2. Lakers
3. S.A.
4. Clips
5/6. Utah/Memphis
7/8 Dallas/Denver
with #5 and 6 pretty interchangeable and 7/8 interchangeable
I can see the T-wolves squeezing into the 8th spot, but I just don't see Portland getting in this year
 
Lol @ the Grizzlies missing the playoffs, and Portland making it.
