    That's interesting, the Blazers won 2-1 in both series against the Lakers/Mavs this season, I assumed that would have broken the tiebreakers.

    Playoff seed tiebreakers are different than draft position tiebreakers (which are just coin flips).

    and even in playoff seeding, Mavs win a 3-team tiebreaker by virtue of Division title being first tie-breaker for 3-team scenarios.

    yeah it's not even that they were particularly terrible with steph being below his normal TS%, but it just seems hard to believe you give up 22. even in this stretch, curry is usually around 15-17 3's. ja morant seems well suited to maxing out at another 50-54 win grit 'n grind era.

    reminded me of the 1st part of #95 in this video.



    those aren't just in the same game, they're back to back plays.
