    Trying to do the math. If we beat Utah, we are 3 seed and play the loser of NOP vs SA. If we lose to Utah, we are 5 seed and play the winner of NOP vs SA. Or is there a scenario in which we play Utah. Help.

    No scenario to play Utah. The worst seed to get is 5th since we have tiebreakers over OKC and NOP. Utah also has the tiebreaker over SAS.

    A whole post for your random thought towards someone you know can't see your posts? Nice.

    This is good. A 4 seed, opening against NOP is what we can hope for

    So, if SA loses, do we rest our starters? I say yes.

    I prefer a 3 seed opening against Denver. Nurk is awesome against Denver and we wouldn't have to win in Denver to win the series.

    I was merely referring to Denver's awesome home record.

    Would the NBA consider that tanking?
