Game for Dallas and clippers don't mean much for them in the standing at this point,so not a huge surprise by their no show so far....

Question for all of you....This is still unlikely but if the mavs,lakers and suns are tied in the standing at the end of the season for the 5-7 spot,who have the edge(5th seed) and who are 7th?

Mavs have tiebreaker over Suns and Lakers. Lakers have tiebreaker over Suns. So it'd go Mavs, Lakers, Suns.

Cleveland dropped 80 on Clippers in first half? lol.

If Cleveland wins that game and Suns beat Clippers both games it could get interesting.

Maybe they prefer to face a team like the thunder in the first round instead of suns or mavs?
