Actually they are tied for the 9th seed, 1.5 games out of the 7th seed. Not surprised you don't understand NBA standings.

Edit: Turns out they have the tie breaker against the Spurs so GS is the 9th seed alone. You and your lapdog Axe should check your facts before attempting to be funny.

I don't know what you're talking about but i think what he said earlier is true atm tho. Try checking it here now: https://www.nba.com/standings

The spurs are ahead and they're at ninth because 30/59 = 0.5084745763 while the dubs are 31/61 =0.5081967213 so that's why they're currently at the tenth seed. Do you see the difference now?

[tontoz]

:facepalm

Your own link shows them both 13.5 games behind the top seed with a .508 winning percentage. They are both one game over .500.

A .0003 difference due to playing a different number of games is irrelevant.

GS has a 2/1 record against the Spurs so they have the tie breaker.

But the current standings, as of this time, still show that they're at tenth seed. Why is that so?

I think it's because they have one more loss than the spurs and having one win also over them doesn't offset the deficit somehow.

It doesn't matter who is listed 9 or who is listed 10. They are tied 13.5 games behind the top seed.

The Spurs have to finish a full game ahead of GS at the end of the year to be ahead in the standings. If they finish tied then GS will have the higher seed.

More importantly they are only 1.5 games behind the 7th seed Blazers who have lost 5 straight.

Well you can say those things as much as you like but once again, the actual standings will still stand in the end and curry's team is currently listed as tenth. It's not hard to see why, even with those factors you're trying to point out. Anyway i think it's better to just wait and see how this season will finish tho so don't frown over it yet.

If they have the same exact record, both are either 31-30 or 30-29, then that would be a lot more convincing i suppose. But having one more win and loss at the same time is what made them a seed below rn although that's not final yet.

You should probably just refrain from posting about anything math related.

This reminds me of the time that you didn't understand the difference between winning 40 games in an 82 game season and winning 40 in a 72 game season.

Ugh, you seem to be emotinally upset, insecure or something. :facepalm

Idk why it's hard for you to merely acknowledge that the current standings show that his team is currently sitting at tenth seed and like i've said, it's not even final yet. It will change after a few more games in the remainder of the season. They may end up with more wins, who knows. Not sure why you're making such a big deal out of it. :confusedshrug:

[tpols]

Dingo Mode.

It was refreshing to watch Curry vs the kings last night after seeing Devin Booker play the nets. Guy had only 1 assist and was wildly throwing balls out of bounds. Meanwhile Curry is executing absurd dimes and hockey assists out of double teams. Nets never double teamed Booker... Kings non stop doubled Chef and he still out produced.

:applause:

[hold this L]

Dude has 15 thousand posts in a year since he joined, and 10,000 are about Curry. Guy talks more about Curry than all GSW fans put together, and then you multiply that by 10. What a manic loser. :lol

When teams are tied they are going to list one above the other. It doesn't matter. They aren't looking at tiebreakers in the day to day standings.

GS doesn't need to have more wins than the Spurs by the end of the season. If they finish tied GS will have the higher seed.

Why am i making a big deal of it? You come in with your "thread ender" post when you don't even bother to look at the standings. Do you really think that the .0003 difference due to playing 2 more games is a thread ender?

I don't really think Steph had a great game last night, just average. He shot exceptionally well, but he and the team played very lazy defense. On top of that, he had too many TOs and nearly lost the game with a bad mistake after his block. Also, he missed 3 free throws in one game.

https://media.giphy.com/media/ypX8YZszkIXFC/giphy.gif


I don't even remember what year he missed 3 in one game. Hopefully the team is locked in defensively vs Mavs because their firepower is on another level than Buddy, HB who were unconscious, except for the ghost of 2016 Barnes during the last shot of the game. Would be nice to see Steph go nuclear and crush them, he completely destroyed them in the last two games. The team is also going a bit too much iso Steph for my liking, and Dray ball hogging the ball to wait for the assist, I mean pass. Can't really complain since the OFF rating is top 5 for the month of April though.

[mehyaM24]

warriors schedule looking light. mavs, wolves, rockets and the pels twice - they could be 7th or 8th by this weeks end. with curry's play of late and the warriors sense of urgency (they play hard night in and out) that wouldn't be surprising.

Once again GS and SA are tied in the standings however this time GS is listed at 9. Like i said before it doesn't matter who is listed with the higher seed when teams are tied. What matters is the tiebreaker.

Well, this is more convincing than the one a week ago.

I am guessing that who gets listed first depends on their most recent games. SA lost their last 2 and GS won last night.

Dallas and the Lakers are tied but Dallas has won 3 straight so that is probably why they are listed first.

Nah, it's their H2H record. Mavs have the tiebreaker because they're 2 - 1 against the Lakers.

Well yes, they had a higher win percentage at the time, Axe is right on that. H2H record however is the first tiebreaker if teams finish with an identical record.

Here's the official rules


The following outlines the NBA's playoff tie-break rules and procedures based
on the final regular season standings:
Tiebreaker Basis – 2 Teams Tied
(-) Tie breaker not needed (better overall winning percentage)
(1) Better winning percentage in games against each other
(2) Division leader wins a tie over a team not leading a division
(3) Division won-lost percentage (only if teams are in same division)
(4) Conference won-lost percentage
(5) Better winning percentage against teams eligible for the playoffs in own
conference (including teams that finished the regular season tied for a playoff
position)
(6) Better winning percentage against teams eligible for the playoffs in other
conference (including teams that finished the regular season tied for a playoff
position)
(7) Better net result of total points scored less total points allowed against all
opponents (“point differential”)

[tontoz]

I know h2h is the tiebreaker at the end of the season. I just don't buy the argument that when both teams are 1 game over .500 that SA is the higher seed even though GS has the tiebreaker.

The only difference now is that they are .500 instead of 1 game over .500 which shows how meaningless the previous listing was. I don't buy the premise that a .0003 difference makes SA a higher seed since they need to finish the season a full game ahead to get the higher seed.

[Axe]

No that isn't it. Recently GS and SA were tied and SA was listed first even though GS had the tiebreaker. Just look at the previous page of this thread
Like i said last week, 30/59 from the spurs got a better overall percentage if computed with multiple decimals considered compared to 31/61 by the warriors, regardless of other factors like tiebreakers or what more. That's why they were a seed ahead, despite having one less win and one less loss at the same time. The warriors just had more loss, still. That could be the reason behind it.

It still doesn't make sense though because they both had a winning percentage of .508. Anything after the 3rd decimal place is irrelevant to the seedings.

If they are tied it doesnt matter if they are at .500 or one game over .500. If they are tied, which they were then and are now, GS has the higher seed because of the tiebreaker.

Acting like the Spurs are the higher seed because of a .0003 difference in the winning percentage is ridiculous. It doesn't matter who is listed first what matters is who has the tiebreaker. GS was the 9th seed then just like they are now.

Frankly i never even paid attention to this.

I know but still that's what the league showed us in the standings last week, that the spurs (30-29) were the 9th seed and were ahead of the warriors (31-30). Once again, it could be the warriors having one more loss that made a difference to that. Unlike when their win/loss record are exactly tied like rn, if one of them is two games ahead then i could see them having the 9th seed instead.

That makes no sense. The Warriors still have one more loss.

Do you really not see the problem? Both teams were 1 game over .500 now they are both at .500. They were tied then and they are tied now with GS having the tiebreaker.

Seriously? Let's try using a different scenario for both of them then.

Say if both teams have played 59 or 61 games respectively last week but had 10 more wins and 10 less losses instead at the same time, that puts them at either 4th or 5th seed more or less, the team records that time would be 40-19 for the spurs and 41-20 for the warriors.

The gap in their pct would be a bit bigger too but would you still contest if the latter got the lower seed due to obvious reasons?

In that case you are talking about two elite teams who win more than they lose. Those two teams win two games for each loss so a loss has more meaning. We are talking about two teams that are .500 teams.

You are trying to say that being tied at 1 game over .500 is so different from being tied at .500 that it changes the seeding. That is just nonsense.

Eh maybe but the purpose of citing that was to know if you'd contest it if that were actually the case, because you obviously wanted the warriors to have the higher seed between the two teams, with or without the tiebreakers. Which just seemed like a big deal to you until now. :confusedshrug:

But going back to reality tho, if both of those teams really end up as either the 9th seed or 10th seed in their conference at the end of the season, they'll be the ones facing each other in the play-ins/losers bracket anyway and there's not much going to be any difference about it aside from maybe the higher seeded team getting the hca for that initial round.

I am not the one who brought up the seeding in the first place. Highwhey brought it up to troll op and you called it a thread ender. If it wasn't for that i never would have mentioned it. I certainly wouldn't have looked to see who has the tie breaker.

And of course GS is actually 6 games over .500 with Curry in the lineup in the West so citing their seeding to take shots at Curry is lame.

Yea but trolling or not, you can't blame him when he said that during that night tho; the warriors were really the 10th seed when their record was 31-30. Regardless of tiebreakers, non-significant difference in their pct or what more due to their close record vs. the 30-29 spurs then, the standings still listed them as the 10th seed seven days ago so that'd be the consensus basis.

And yes, curry may have lifted them some games above .500 when he's present but there were some of them in which he scored high for his team yet they ended up losing while some of them are wins that saw one of his teammates being the leading scorer for them, although let's not delve into that further anymore.

Yea it's that easy to see in terms of computing the actual pct which consider multiple decimals into account. When almost alike, the one with the higher pct gets the tiebreaker and thus, will get the higher seed as well.

[tontoz]

The Spurs are now .5 games behind GS after last nights loss. In order to get the 9th seed they have to gain 1.5 games on GS the rest of the season. This is not that complex.

The 4th decimal place last week didn't mean anything then or now.

Well, that's because the spurs now have one more loss than their wins while the warriors are exactly .500 atm but if they lose tomorrow night, that drops them to 32-33 tho they will still be ahead of the spurs now due to differences in pct. Whichever is higher between the two, win or loss, will have more impact in that.

It's just like computing a car's power-to-weight ratio lol, if you are familar with them. Just because one car has slightly higher horsepower than another similar car but is significantly heavier at the same time would only mean that it has worse power-to-weight ratio.

It's just like computing a car's power-to-weight ratio lol, if you are familar with them. Just because one car has slightly higher horsepower than another similar car but is significantly heavier at the same time would only mean that it has worse power-to-weight ratio.


That isn't the way it works.

Lets go back to when the Spurs were .0003 ahead of GS. In order to get the 9th seed they needed to outplay GS by a full game the rest of the season. That .0003 didn't mean squat.

You do have point in that, although it's worth saying the season obviously isn't over yet and all teams will finish with 72 games played this year. So sure, the spurs will need to finish with more wins if they are to lock up as the 9th seed by the end of the season since they both have a close record atm.

Rn tho, the standings will still adjust because there a few games remaining. Also the dubs are ahead of them by a game so anything could happen depending on their respective results.

:facepalm

So you are saying that both teams having one more loss is enough to change the seeding. Do you really believe that?

Of course.

What the **** else?

This is simple mathematics

[tontoz]

Of course.

What the **** else?

This is simple mathematics

Here is some more simple math. When the Spurs had a .0003 better winning percentage they needed to make up 1 game on GS the rest of the season to get the 9 seed. That didnt change when they both were at .500.

Now that they are .5 games behind GS they have to make up 1.5 games the rest of the way to get the 9 seed.

I have no clue what your problem is, to be honest

You are right you have no clue. .0003 has no relevance. When both teams were one game over .500 they were tied and GS had the tiebreaker.

Yet the spurs still were the 9th seed during that time. If it's not because of the very minimal difference in their respective pct, then it must be something else.

The standings showed them both 13.5 games behind the leader. When teams are tied they have to list someone first.

In order for the Spurs to actually finish the season with the 9th seed they had to outplay GS by a full game the rest of the way. Now they need to make up 1.5 games.

Obviously the programmers have set it up to get it right at the end of the season when all the games have been played which is when it really matters. At that point any differential in winning percentage is relevant. Right now it isn't.

Right now the Spurs have to make up 1.5 games to get to 9th but you are correct all it really means is that the play in game is on the road vs at home. Not that important with so few fans.

[tontoz]

Looking at this again we haven't addressed the most important issue which is the 8 seed. The 8 seed only has to win one game in the play in.

GS is only .5 games behind Memphis with the season series tied 1-1. They play again in the last game of the season.:lol

dafuq? you are babbling

dafuq? you are babbling

You do understand that the Spurs have to finish one game ahead of GS to get the 9 seed, right?

Lil Axe went from hating on the dubs for being in the play in tournament to groveling for the Lakers to make the play in tournament. Oh what a turn of events for the little fella. :oldlol:

Like i said, the spurs have one more loss than their wins rn so that puts them below .500 atm. Unlike the warriors which have the same wins/losses, putting them at .500 so they're currently sitting at the 9th seed instead.

And the Spurs have to make up 1.5 games on GS to get the 9 seed. They have only 9 games to do it.

Huh wtf you smoking now tpots? Don't you realize that the lakers still have a better record than the warriors hmm? Plus it's not even finalized yet so what a lunatic you really are lmao. No wonder nobody takes your banal opinions and your low iq maga takes itb seriously anymore. :ohwell:

Well naturally because of that one more loss.

Both teams have 32 losses.

[Axe]

Both teams have 32 losses.
I mean the spurs only have 31 wins rn, right? So they have one more loss than that at 32 and that's why their current pct is lower than .500.

If they beat the Pels and the knicks beat the Grizz then GS will have the 8 seed alone. Haters will be fuming.
