Will only be listening H2H tiebreakers that are relevant (i.e. not going to list a team owning the tiebreaker vs. teams that are mathematically eliminated from winning their group).

For 3-way or greater ties, it goes to point differential. That gets a little too messy to determine as is, so we’ll wait till it’s closer to determine who may come out ahead in 3 (or greater) team tiebreakers.

The Eastern Conference breakdown can be found at: https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/17y1ua7/inseason_tournament_breakdown_eastern_conference/

Suns: 1-1 (own H2H tiebreaker vs. Jazz, lose H2H tiebreaker vs. Lakers)

Trailblazers: 1-2

Grizzlies: 0-3

Jazz clinch with a win @ Lakers on 11/21 AND at least 1 Suns’ loss.

    Warriors can clinch with winning their last 2 AND Kings winning @ Timberwolves on 11/24 AND Timberwolves losing their last 2.
