If the Warriors end up winning around 72 games and are favored over the Spurs in a playoff series, I'd definitely go with San Antonio. The regular season games between the two won't tell much either way.
As I said a few pages back, 72 wins is a grueling pace and it just takes a game or two to go from "OMG will they ever lose" to them being on the same pace as the other hot starts in league history. It works the other direction too; the Sixers are 5-8 in the last 13 games and would still do well to keep the Lakers out of the #1 lottery spot, but ending up with the worst record in NBA history is not going to happen.
