NBA Season 2016/17

Russell Westbrook is relentless

Been critical of him all year but today his first half was amazing, was about to congratulate him for a highly efficient night then he goes and ruins it by chucking up loads of 3s and losing the game after he single handed put them in a positon to win it.

One stat showed it all.

3 points 2/11

Russ you cant shoot 3s dont shoot them, drive to the basket, hit a 2 or pass the ball.

(excuse my ignorance)

Is the final draft order decided by regular season standings or post-playoffs?

lottery balls, the more losses you had the more balls you get but no certainty to get the number 1 pick

Yeah nah sorry, I mean for play-off teams are their positions/odds (I was not aware that they do a lottery for teams outside of the top 14, but could well be wrong) decided by the regular season standings or by playoff performance? For instance if Boston were ousted first round, do they get a 15-23 pick/odds to get that pick or do they get a later pick b/c of they had the fourth best regular season standings?

I'm pretty sure it's playoff performance but I could be wrong.

So, if Boston lose this round, they would probably get the 23rd pick as they'll likely have the best record of teams eliminated in the first round.

It's regular season standings. Case in point, Warriors selected Damian Jones with the 30th pick last year (With their own pick).

Well there you go. I must be too used to the AFL ones and just assumed wrongly.

there ya go, thanks fellas!

I am pretty sure that its based on final standings at the end of the season.  They then have a draw which is only used to determine tie breakers

They have already done the tiebreaker draw --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9wsm1YZeX0&t=152s

51-31 -- Cavs, Clippers, Raptors, Jazz
43-39 -- Hawks, Griz
42-40 -- Paces, Bucks
41-41 -- Bulls, Trailblazers
31-51 -- T-Wolves, Knicks

what i find more amazing is how do you let them score 74 in a half and then go to 40.

From rubbish D to fantastic.

If only Lebron could hit FTs imagine if he just hit 10/12

45 points 13 rebound 12 assists on 52% FG and 50% 3P  wow.

AB with a blinder today, really limited Butler's impact. Horford with one of his best games as a Celtic also.

That's more like it 8) A lot of IT/Horford PnR with the floor spread in that game and it worked a treat.

What's the old saying? A series doesn't start until a home team wins a game? :P

CP3 is better than Westbrook.

CP3 is better than Westbrook.

If i have a few stars on the team i chose cp3 easy as he makes others better and will share thr ball.

If i have a average team ill take westbrook easy as he will games on his own. Far far better scorer. Plays at the greatest intensity of anyone in the league.

Cp3 better fit for la. But he would struggke in okc to make playoffs.

Chris Paul led his team to 46, 49 and 56 win seasons in New Orleans?
