How are standings decided and what is the mercy rule?

Standings are won-lost-tied percentage (wins divided by games played, with a tie counting as half a win). Ties are broken in this order: 1) record in games between the tied teams, 2) net points in those games, 3) record against the highest-ranked team in the conference standings, working down, 4) record against all common opponents, 5) record within the conference, 6) net points against common opponents, 7) net points within the conference, 8) net points in all games, 9) coin toss.

Mercy rule: if a team leads by 35 points or more at any time in the second half, the game clock switches to running time for the rest of the game. It does not go back to stop time even if the gap closes below 35.
