So, if Portland and Utah are both ahead of the Pels, how does that game determine if we get 5th or 6th?



Pels own tiebreaker with OKC if in 3way with Portland.

Pels lose tiebreaker with OKC if in 3way tie with Utah.

Essentially
PDX>NOP>OKC
UTA>OKC>NOP


So yeah, tiebreaker bullshite

Here's an interesting question, that may or may not have been talked about, OKC and NOP are tied in records. Their seeding is dependent on Utah/Por game but is home-court dependent on the seeding in this case. We have the head-to-head tiebreaker over them and have the same season record. IF it comes down to a Western Conference Finals matchup between the Pels and Thunder, wouldn't Pelicans get homecourt even though they are the lower seed?

Theoretically yes.

In practice I don’t see OKC getting past both Houston and Utah, so it’s kind of academic.

Jackson being a tool is why he’s doing commentary and the Warriors are winning titles.

Thanks. Like I said, there were so many scenarios, I just gave up on following and let it play out.

is this UTA-PDX game the ugliest uniform match-up the entire Association could've put out there?

Depends.

Do the Nuggets do throwback jerseys to those godawful rainbow uniforms they had in the early 90s?
