Quote from: CelticG1 on April 06, 2011, 03:32:49 PMYeah I don't see how that makes sense much sense.Why in the conference standings with a tie break would be who has the best divisional record? Shouldn't it be who has a better record against the other respective division. Seems like an inconsistent method if thats the caseThat's not the case. They only use divisional record if you are in the same division. Otherwise, it goes to conference record. So, if the Knicks and 76ers are tied, they would go to Divisional record, but not if the C's and Bulls are tied.

I'm trying to think of a reason for why this is a bad way to determine the tie break and I just can't

Apparently home court for the Finals is determined by the teams' records against the opposing conference (us against the West, them against the East).Do you have a link for this? NBA.com doesn't specify that on their playoff page.Here's a link.http://lakers.ocregister.com/2011/03/23/lakers-own-tiebreaker-vs-celtics-likely-not-bulls/51343/Also, for historical evidence, back in the 2001 Finals, when the teams had identical records, LA got home court because their winning percentage against the East (.733) was better than Philly's against the West (.571). If it had gone by each team's record against their own conference, Philly would have gotten home court (.741 vs. .653).
