What happens with the pick if that's how it all ends this season?

Bk have won both games against the Suns this season so i'm thinking if they tie BK would end up 4th PHX taking 3rd. Again if that's the case we really have no one else to blame but ourselves for not taking care of business when we played them early in the season.

I believe head to head doesn't matter, if they tie in record, the difference of combinations between the 3rd worst and 4th worst will be split between them, both having equal chances at pick 1, 2, or 3.

I also thought it was something like this.

It's going to be interesting to see what extremes PHX goes to, to counter BRK.

OK, oh well then. 3rd or 4th would be equally as good. I think this is how it finishes - Philly, Lakers, PHX, BK, Minny.

Amm, I think head to head matchups to settle it, I think BKN took both games, so if the records are the same BKN stays ahead, if they are 1/1(which i don't think they are), it's settled by coin toss, I believe... Correct me if I'm wrong

If Brooklyn finish 4th worst behind Suns, #Netspick will have 11.9% chance at No. 1. Tied w/Suns elevates to 13.8%.

If tied, the 275 pingpong ball combinations are split. Coin flip winner gets higher pick if neither vault to top 3.

1. 250 combinations, 25.0% chance of receiving the #1 pick
2. 199 combinations, 19.9% chance
3. 156 combinations, 15.6% chance
4. 119 combinations, 11.9% chance

Guys, if anything bad happens to me, just remember that I took one for the team...

Don't sweat it man, nothing bad is gonna happen.

Looks like I'm off the hook.

Still a chance to get 3 out of 4 desirable outcomes today, though. Rockets look about to seal the deal. Just need a miracle in Arizona.

It will come down to 2 games:
DAL - HOU
UTA - DAL

And yes MEM also needs at least 1 if not 2 wins.

Final: Houston 118 OKC 110

PHX up 4. Wondering how long that will last.
