Tie Breaker after head-to-head?

[adidas11]

For playoff seeding and home court advantage, what is the next tie breaker rule after head-to-head?

[Lebowski Brickowski]

Conference record.

[Lebowski Brickowski]

Then Div. record.

Sounds good. Thanks!

Lebowski's not exactly right. The answer to your question is:

First tiebreak after head-to-head is Division Record, if the teams are in the same division.
Next is Conference Record. See here (http://www.nba.com/statistics/playoff_picture.html) if you want all the detail.

The current tiebreak status for the Spurs is: (where "won" means the Spurs own the tiebreak vs. that team)

Hornets - lost

Lakers - depends on Sunday's game. Winner of that game also wins the tiebreak. Thus that game counts double, in effect.

Jazz - lost
Rockets - won
Suns - lost
Mavs - won

You probably also know that the top 4 seeds are reserved for the three division winners, plus the second-place-in-their-division team with the best record. The Jazz have already clinched the Northwest Division and thus will have no worse than a #4 seed. But HCA is based strictly on record, thus they will probably end up playing the #5 seed but without HCA.

Very important point to note there. Thank you for pointing that out.
