hoping Fatson is back in the starting lineup in 2 hours and the Knicks take care of business
They’ll update it after the play in, and again after the lottery.

True. Also has to be noted that head to head records don’t matter for draft positions - if two or more teams have the same record then it’s a coin flip regardless of standings order.
So the best possible for ATL pick is 12 with 9.9% chance at top 4!
Queen has skyrocketed to top 5 in some mock drafts. While Sorber, MCB can still be at play at 12. Wolf will be there and to me is still a great pick as discussed above (and they can even trade down). I prefer legit PF/C over skinny 6-9ish who can’t help Wemby against strong bigs.
if they are in the lottery best possible is 9 if they don't win again and fall behind POR/PHO, most likely is 12 followed by 11.
That Dejounte trade would give Wright that out-of-jail card every time.
But right now they have to add some assumption, to make whole simulation working.
I would not be surprised if Hawks win all there remanning games as they are all against Tanking teams
Not really an assumption. They are just putting the teams where they are RIGHT NOW, no assumptions. That’s their ranking, and it will be updated for the play in AT THAT MOMENT, and after the lottery for the final draft order. No assumptions, just a series of snapshots at periods of time.
New York, and Orlando X 2 are not tanking teams. That’s half their remaining schedule. Orlando will be trying to seriously kick Hawk ass twice to keep their #7 position away from ATL.
Knicks helping us out today up big in the 1st half
Hopefully Miami can pull out a win tonight too.
After this game Atlanta has a soft schedule. Orlando 2x but probably will get a split with them.
Orlando is going to want to KO them and lock up #7 tightly. Magic’s other two are NYK and BOS, so they may need both.
Atlanta has an easier path/ Orlando has to take both games

Celtics will rest at least some of their starters and take it easy.
Orlando is ahead by 2 in the win column, with two more games played than ATL. If they beat ATL twice,they lock them out of 7th.
It isn't going to be easy to beat them twice
If this were January, sure. It’s April, and a dog fight for play in home court, though. I think the better team prevails in this case, and that’s Orlando, by virtue of their defense.
It looks to me like Atlanta finishes 8 or 9. I've predicted them to finish 9 most all season. I've still got a decent shot at that prediction..
With today's loss to NYK, only way for ATL to move to 7th on a split is for them to win their other 3 games and ORL to lose their other 2. Not impossible but advantage ORL unless they lose both to ATL
Thank you New York Knicks.
Damn that MIL@MIA game tonight is consequential, current line is MIA -1.5
that Ja buzzer beater is gonna haunt us
the 10 game losing streak a few weeks ago too
