if we go 2-0, the lowest seed we get is 6th: we go 2-0, Utah goes 2-1, and OKC goes 2-0

that sucks donkey dick. I thought i read somewhere that with 2-0 we are either 4 or 5.

Assuming we go 2-0 and OKC goes 2-0, our seeding will all depend on Utah. If Utah goes 3-0 we get the 5th seed. If Utah goes 2-1 we get the 6th seed. If Utah goes 1-2 or 0-3 we get the 4th seed

The only other scenario is if Portland goes 0-2. I have no idea what'll happen at that point


but this race is so crazy that we could theoretically still face any team in the first round

Yep. 4th

see Deion’s post
We want UTA to win out

I want Utah to go 1-2 or 0-3 so we get the 4th seed, home court, and face OKC

or

Utah goes 2-1 and pushes us to the 6th seed where we face Portland in round 1


both are contingent on the Pels and Thunder going 2-0. so I hope Utah at least loses 1 if not more games

I dont want Utah going 3-0 while we go 2-0 because that means we get Utah and I dont want to play Utah

I think if UTA goes 3-0 they get the three seed
I’m also drunk on a Sunday so be careful in listening to me

So we want Utah to win out so they get the 3-seed and stay out of the 4/5 (our likely seeds)?

basically

UTA scrambles the tiebreakers and not our benefit
ideally, UTA wins out and POR beats DEN

If Utah wins out, we’d have to win out and have Portland also lose to Denver and we’d get the 4 seed with the divisional record tiebreaker over Portland.

I think.

So Utah won which is probably for the better.

There is no world where Pels finish higher than PTB. Season series are tied but PTB wins division -which means that they will be higher than Pels.

Best case for Pels is 5th and series with PTB.
