The Texas Longhorn basketball program until the last 10 years have had very few moments of glory, only a couple Final Fours in the 40's and a couple solid teams in the late 80s-early 90s "BMW" run that included an Elite 8 appearance. After the program has boomed with four sweet 16 appearances, and elite 8 appearance, and a final 4 in the last 10 years, the program has produced several quality NBA players under the watch of Rick Barnes. Here's a list and what they've done so far (in alphabetical order):

Western Conference
1. Spurs (61-21)*
2. Mavs (60-22)
3. Suns (60-22)
4. Rockets (58-24)
5. Utah (56-26)
6. Denver (55-27)
7. Blazers(43-41)
8. Warriors (42-40)

*i originally had the Spurs winning 64 games, but figured it's not their style to be 4 games in the lead. They don't waste energy in the regular season..if they clinch homecourt they'll probably rest their starters the last few game.

round 1:
Spurs over Warriors in 5
Mavs over Blazers in 5
Suns over Nuggets in 6
Rockets over Jazz in 7

round 2:
Spurs over Rockets in 7
Suns over Mavs in 7
