Tommorow the NBA regular season ends and I will be crowned winner of my fantasy basketball league. Not bad for my first try.
Figuring out tiebreakers is always fun. The crazy situation this year being between minnesota/portland/LA for the 4/5/6 in the west. Minnesota and Portland are tied and up one game on the lakers. The lakers have split their season series with both minnesota and portland, while minnesota has won the series with portland 3-1. On the other hand, in conference records the lakers and minnesota are currently tied and are better than portland. So... Here's the deal... If Minnesota wins and Portland wins, or minnesota and portland and LA all lose, M and P tie for 4th and minnesota wins the tiebreaker on head to head. If one of those two teams win and the other loses and the lakers lose, then there are no ties and life is simple. If one of those two teams win and the other loses, and the lakers win, then there is a 2-way tie between the lakers and the losers, the first tiebreaker is even, but the lakers have a better conference record, so it would go winner/lakers/loser. Lastly, if both M and P lose and LA wins, then there is a 3-way tie. The first tiebreaker here is total head-to-head which minnesota wins. Then the lakers beat out portland for the next one on conference record, resulting in M/L/P.
Everyone follow that?
