Blazers/Suns Tiebreaker Question
Suns lead the H2H 2-1, and could potentially end up with the same record IF they beat OKC and Philly (possibly also without Embiid), but Blazers have 2 gms left and Suns 3 even though Portland has 2 gms more played.
If they're tied 1 day before regular seasons end, would they simply not play the Blazers' second last day game against Phoenix?
Re: Blazers/Suns Tiebreaker Question
Think I heard it's going to be win % based since not every team will play the same amount of games. So basically H2H record is irrelevant since it's impossible they end up with the same record. Kinda dumb.

Honestly LeTeabag should just pick the team on whose face he would like to rest his royal nuts.

But they would have a better record / win percentage with the extra game

If Suns go 3-0, they'd be 34-39.
If Blazers go 1-1, they'd be 34-40.

Oh ofc yes
But my concern was what if Suns go 3-0 and Blazers 2-0
Be so stupid if Portland gets an extra game

Yeah, if they both win out, the only way the Suns can get in is if the Grizzlies lose both of their games since they'd be .5 games behind Portland, so they'd have to snag the 9 seed with Portland getting the 8.
Re: Blazers/Suns Tiebreaker Question
The play-in games negates a lot of the tiebreaker concerns

I think it does to a large extent. You have less right to complain about unfair tiebreakers when the 9 seed usually wouldn’t have any chance to make the playoffs usually
