Yeah, I know some of these games can affect playoff seedings, but no matter WHAT happens tonight, there will be no playoff matchups determined monday night. Only six out of the 16 playoff teams are locked in to their current position, and while the Spurs can join that group tonight, the team they would play in the first round will still be up in the air.

It's actually possible for no matchups to be decided tomorrow night, either.

Am I the only one very annoyed by this?

The remaining possibilities:

West-

Teams that have clinched seeds:

Suns (2)
Nuggets (3)

Teams with multiple seed possibilities:

Spurs (1,4)
Mavs (1,4)
Grizz (5,6)
Clips (5,6)
Lakers (7,8)
Clippers (7,8)

East-

Teams that have clinched seeds:

Pistons (1)
Heat (2)
Nets (3)
Cavs (4)

Teams with multiple seed possibilities:

Wiz (5,6,7,8)
Pacers (5,6,7,8)
Bucks (5,6,7,8)
Bulls (5,6,7,8)

Both the Knicks and Bobcats and TrailBlazers at Warriours games are actually very important. The Bulls own NY's first round pick next year, and if they finish with the worst record, their chances at the number one pick skyrockets. Right now the Blazers hold that mark.

Warriors beat Poorland, Bobcats smash the Kicks, it comes down to the final game of the season.

I'm not certain who'd own the tiebreaker.

And Rudy Gay is now eligible.
