Lakers clinched playoff spot? How?
Lakers W41 L40 - 1 Game Left
Warriors W40 L40 - 2 Games Left
LA Clippers W39 L41 - 2 Games Left
If Lakers lose they are W41 L41 and if Warriors win one and lose one they are also W41 L41 and if Clippers win both they are also W41 L41.
So how does the tiebreaker work and why are people saying that they are in the playoff for sure?
Apparently people are not understanding my question. How can Lakers have clinched a spot when a 3 way tie is possible?

Because they have the greatest offensive threat since Wilt...Kobe..Kobe...Kobe!...
sorry.....seriously though!.......because if they tie with the Clipper's..then they beat out the Clipper's because they took the series this year.....I think the Lakers got them 3 -1..so that means they clinched at least a 8th seed..

definite, if Utah wins, and Lake prepare does not Lakers do no longer make playoffs because of the fact Utah holds the tie breaker. the good information is, Utah performs first, so Lakers understand precisely what they want.

lakers hold the tiebreaker over the clips and warriors. clips hold the tiebreaker over the warriors, all either by winning the head to head matchups or better division record.
