Seeds. 1 2 3 or 4

Spurs could be 1 3 or 4.  Is that a first time in history for entering the final game of reg season?

ditto for:
Lakers 2 3 4
Kings 2 3 4

Only the Wolves control their own destiny.  The Sp*rs, Queens and mighty mighty Lakers all need help.

Actually the Kings can end up only 2 or 4 seed.  They also control their own destiny.  

A win by the Kings assures them the #2 seed.  

A 3 way tie (Spurs lose, Kings, LA win) would result in the Kings being #2, Lakers #3 and Spurs #4.

A loss by Kings puts them in the #4 position.  If LA loses also the Kings are back at #2.

On another note it is only the second time in NBA history that every team in a division finishes with a .500 or better record.  All hail the Mighty Midwest.

What was the Spurs vs. Kings record?  Doesn't affect seeding I know but how would home court playout in regards to Kings vs. Spurs?

Spurs-Kings split 2-2.  Spurs have 2nd tie breaker - better conference record.  Spurs give up homecourt advantage to only Minnesota (and Indiana) if top 4 western teams all win tonight.

Darn, I wet myself.  Thanks for the info anyway Lurker.  Good luck to you and DEATH to the Kings.  I want a Laker smack down of the Rockets in round 1!
