Game Blog: Spurs At Warriors - April 13

you dont want to know.



really, i thought that a division winner was only guaranteed a top 4 seed not a top 3?

The division champion overrides the tiebreaker with any non division champion when the records are equal. Portland would get the better seed only if they had a better record.

do you have a website where you got this?

i got this from nba.com:

The top four seeds will be the three division winners plus the team with the next best record. Those four will be ordered by record (and tiebreakers if needed), so it's possible that two teams in the same division could hold the top two spots, with the other two division winners at Nos. 3 and 4.

Tiebreakers
(1) Head-to-head
(2) Division record (if the teams are in the same division)
(3) Conference record
(4) Record vs. Playoff teams, own conference
(5) Record vs. Playoff teams, other conference
(6) Net points, all games

i dont see where a the division winner would take precedent in a situation where two teams have equal records. if portland and sa have identical records then the first tiebreaker would be head to head which portland wins.

Its not that complicated at this point. Here's another article explaining that the SW division champion will get the #3 seed if they tie record wise with Portland:

Thanks ElNono. You are correct. Spurs win and Rockets loss= Division le and # 3 seed for the Spurs, regardless of whether Portland wins or loses.

59 rebounds for the Spurs

YES.....it's why I picked the name REBOUNDS!!!
We can always use them.

I didnt watch the game but its good to see that Hill got some good minutes. The game was kind of late for me.

20 points 15 boards for Gooden

[spursfan1000]

Only if the Spurs wouldent have lost 1 more game we wouldent be in this tie breaker.
