    Must be. Are we really ranked #19 out if 20 teams?

    No, there are 22 seeded teams. So we are 19 of 22.

    Hawks are the 14th seed. So we have a shot tomorrow evening.

    SEEDINGS ANNOUNCED FOR INAUGURAL 2013 NBA SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP
    – Championship Round Tips off July 17 –

    LAS VEGAS, July 16, 2013 – The inaugural NBA Summer League Championship, the second phase of NBA Summer League 2013 in Las Vegas, tips off Wednesday, July 17, at the Thomas & Mack Center and COX Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada Las Vegas. The Golden State Warriors earned the first overall seed while the Chicago Bulls are the second seed. The Phoenix Suns, NBA D-League Select Team and Charlotte Bobcats round out the top five seeds.

    Tournament action gets under way when the 11th seeded New Orleans Pelicans take on the 22nd seeded Denver Nuggets at 3 p.m. PT at the COX Pavilion and continues with five additional games featuring the other teams seeded 11-22. Thursday’s slate tips off at 1 p.m. PT when the 7th seeded Cleveland Cavaliers take on the 10th seeded San Antonio Spurs. The eight game schedule on Thursday concludes when the top-seeded Warriors take on either the 16th seeded Dallas Mavericks or 17th seeded Los Angeles Clippers at 7:30 p.m. PT at the Thomas & Mack Center.

    The participating 22 teams have each completed three games since the summer classic tipped off on July 12. Based on the outcome of those games, the teams are seeded 1-22 for the single elimination tournament that culminates in a championship game on July 22. Each team will compete in at least two more contests; a minimum of one game in the single elimination tournament, and the other in a consolation game if the team loses a game on either July 17 or July 18.

    Teams seeded 11-22 will compete on Wednesday, with the winners of those contests advancing in the tournament to play Thursday against teams seeded 1-10, who earned a first-round “bye.” Teams on losing Wednesday and Thursday will play on Friday. The single elimination tournament resumes on Saturday with a champion being crowned on July 22.

    Seeding for the tournament was determined by won-loss records. Ties were broken using quarter-points and then point differential to determine the seedings.

    NBA TV’s comprehensive coverage of NBA Summer League 2013 continues live from both the Thomas & Mack Center and COX Pavilion including the championship game. Once again, all NBA Summer League games will be available via NBA Summer League Live on NBA.com and NBA Mobile. NBA Summer League Live is a subscription service offering fans a full slate of live and archived games available on the web, App Store and Google Play.

    I don't think so. I believe you play out all games.

    Nope. Double elimination. We're guaranteed 1 more game after tonight at least

    They're out of the "tournament", but they play one more consolation game. In other words, everyone gets at least five games.

    Really? I might have misunderstood then. I figured two guaranteed games meant double elimination. OOps!

    If we lose, we're out of the tournament, but still get to play one more consolation game, so we get five summer league games in Vegas.

    I don't think in that game they'll even bother to keep score. The good news is, however, is that after the game all the players are being taken out by the parents for sno-cones.

    If we lose we might as well try to get CJ the MVP just have him run down and shoot every possession. He should get at least 50.

    I want to see McCollum play the whole game at SG to see how he can guard the 2's. Guarding Jenkins would be a good test for him.

    My gut feeling, FWIW: They won't give MVP to a guy on a team that loses in the first round. CJ needs to have another 25+ point game, but this time it needs to be more efficient - and we need to win.
