And since Portland only has a 1 game lead (and not the tiebreaker) over Utah, Portland is fighting to retain home court in round 1.  

Utah has the tiebreaker over Portland based on division record so they are going to be playing for home court.

Hopefully we can get the 2 seed. A win on Tuesday and a Denver loss against either Utah or Minnesota would seal it.

Utah doesn't have much to play for because they are pigeon holed into #5 seed. Maybe they decide to sit their top players against the T-Wolves.

Utah could still drop to 6. They're about to lose to the Lakers and then have a home game against Denver followed by a road game against the Clippers. If they lose out and OKC wins out, then the Thunder would move up to 5 since they won the series against the Jazz.

Harden only 21 points shy of 2800 for the season.  Only chamberlain, Jordan, Kareem, Kobe and mcadoo ever scored more.  And harden will end up missing 4 games for the season. 

Another crazy stat is how much he shot up the all time scoring charts: https://www.basketball-reference.com/leaders/pts_career.html

The Jazz probably don't want the Rockets to fall to the 4 seed either. They definitely would rather play Portland than Houston in the first round.

The Jazz can still claim the 4th seed. They are 2 back of Portland, both have 2 games remaining. Utah owns the tie breaker due to better division record. It's not likely because Portland is playing the Lakers and Sacramento, but anything is possible.

Halftime show talking about the Thunder being a dangerous team defensively. 

After giving up 60 points at half, Rockets shooting 46% from the field... they are defending James as tight as possible, hes not getting calls, and still hes got 26 points..

It's Candace Parker. Her takes have been utterly terrible all season.
