    I haven't seen anything published by the NBA, specifically stating that.

    Of course not--that is simply my analysis of the seeding changes they've made over the past several years.

    How can this be so ill- defined, there should be a precisely written rule as to what happens in these scenarios within the NBA rules.

    Is Casey not official enough? He's employed by the Blazers.

    Didn't you just say that Casey said that H2H was the reason we didn't have HCA v MEM in 2015? If he can't even get that right, who's to say that anything else he says is accurate?

    Good point. It's just funny to see him get worked up. Very easy to mess with him

    There's so many moving parts, I just stopped reading any of it because I don't know who is right or wrong.

    Sounds similar to something else happening in this country.

    I was about to post the exact same thing! I'm so excited. Nine 8pm games and 7 of them determine playoff seeds. Only 1, 2, and 4 are determined in the East so we're about to learn the other 5 seeds in 2.5 hours. I'm rooting for New Orleans to be sure. Not sure about OKC because an OKC loss could potentially set up a matchup with Denver for us if we get the 3 seed.

    Philadelphia off to good start to win 3 seed. Up 15 already.

    When was the last time we have a play in game like Denver and Minnesota have right now? It's been awhile. We were 8 seed by our last couple games didn't even matter last year. Remember the meaningless game when Vonleh hit the game winner?

    With Gasol out, OKC would probably win easy

    And Philly is unbelievably good. They sucked just last year and Milwaukee was decent. What a difference a year (and Ben Simmons) makes.
