3 Pacers coin flips:
-Do they have the 7th slot post-lotto or 8th? Tied with WAS. Split even lottery odds.
-Do they get pick 32 or pick 48-50? They want Spurs to win coin flip with Rockets, Heat to lose theirs (so it’s 48)
-Do they pick 25th or 26th? They want CLE drawn over MEM – 6:17 PM

David Hardisty @clutchfans
Spurs win, so the #Rockets and Spurs end the season tied at the 2/3 slot in the lottery.
Tomorrow’s draft tiebreaker will determine which team picks higher if they’re both out of the top 4.
If Rockets lose the tiebreaker, ending up with the 7th pick of the draft is possible. – 6:01 PM
David Hardisty @clutchfans
Clippers, Heat and Warriors end the season tied. The NBA will hold a tiebreaker tomorrow to determine which teams pick 18, 19 and 20.
So the end result of the Eric Gordon trade:
Rockets will swap Milwaukee’s pick (#30) for whichever pick LAC ends up with (#18, #19 or #20) – 5:58 PM

Spurs beat the Mavs 138-117. Pacers will get the rockets second-round pick if the spurs win a coin flip. Pacers will get the Heat’s second rounder if the rockets win the coin flip. – 5:39 PM

Scott Agness @ScottAgness
With the Spurs handling the Mavs, they finish the season 22-60 like the Rockets.
A tiebreaker will determine draft position and if the Rockets own the 32nd pick, it will go to the Pacers. Otherwise, a much later pick.
So, TBD. – 5:38 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs, Rockets, and Pistons will all have a 14% chance at the number 1 pick.
The Spurs and Rockets finish with identical records, so a random drawing (coin flip) will take place before the lottery to decide who ends with the 2nd worst record in the league pic.twitter.com/YzFmK43bxY – 5:38 PM

Tom Petrini @RealTomPetrini
The Spurs win in Dallas, finishing the season 22-60.
They’ll face the Rockets in a coin flip to determine who gets second in the draft lottery.
The loser will have a 7% chance at the seventh pick. – 5:36 PM

Tom Petrini @RealTomPetrini
Rockets won again today!
If the Spurs somehow manage to out-tank the utterly pathetic Mavericks, San Antonio would have a worst case of sixth in the draft.
If they win the Spurs and Rockets go to a coin flip for that right. – 4:14 PM
Salman Ali @SalmanAliNBA
Lot of bellyaching about Houston being 3rd worst and not 1st or 2nd.
Want to reiterate: They will have the same odds at Top 4 as SAS or CHA.
After the Top 4 this year (really more so the Top 3), there’s a steep decline.
The difference between #5 and #7 is negligible. – 4:13 PM

The Rockets have a vacant head coaching spot, top lottery odds, and $60 million in cap space this summer.

Adam Spolane @AdamSpolane
He hasn’t been mentioned as a possiblity, and I have no information indicating the Rockets would be interested, but keep an eye on Sam Cassell. He interviewed with them in 2020, he’s paid his dues as an assistant, and he’s worked closely with James Harden in Philly – 3:54 PM

Another great season on #Rockets radio complete. An absolute pleasure working w/ @SportsMT & @adamclanton on the broadcasts all season long. Big thanks to @JTS693 & @NoahOn790 as network producers. Already looking forward to May 16 (draft lotto) & June 22 (draft) & next season! – 3:49 PM

“For people to be fair w/ me & keep it real, which is fine, I grew up in this business. It’s been good. Obviously the results haven’t been what I wanted them to be, but I’m walking out the door w/ my head held high.” – #Rockets HC Stephen Silas after the season-ending 114-109 win – 3:45 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
This Pacers win compounded by a Rockets win makes for a rotten day, a rotten start to the offseason for the front office. – 3:45 PM

Apologies, had it wrong about Spurs, didn’t realize standings had already updated. So Spurs want to lose to avoid a tie with Houston, while Dallas wants to lose to avoid a possible tie with OKC (in the lottery) and also to draw even with Utah should they win. – 3:38 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Draft positioning: Houston’s win in Washington is big for the Wiz. They’re tied with Indiana with the Pacers’ win in New York at 35 wins. Meanwhile, Houston win great for Dallas, as it means Spurs secure 2nd seed and now have nothing to lose for. – 3:29 PM

Kevin O’Connor @KevinOConnorNBA
Rockets beating the Wizards has big lotto implications:
-If the Spurs lose to the Mavs, they’ll have 2nd worst record, assuring a top 6 pick.
-If the Mavs lose, they’ll finish in the bottom 10.
-If the Jazz also beat the Lakers, Dallas and Utah will tie for the 9th worst odds. – 3:24 PM

John Hollinger @johnhollinger
Celtics and Pacers watching Rockets and Spurs results very closely. Rockets 2nd goes to Pacers if it’s 32, to Celtics if it’s 33. Rockets win means it goes to Boston unless Spurs also win and send to coin toss. Indy/Bos “loser” here gets Miami’s second, roughly 15 spots lower. – 3:18 PM

The Pacers really need to lose this game, too. Indiana is tied with Orlando and if it wins, it goes into a tie with Washington. Could cost the Pacers multiple spots in lottery positioning. – 3:16 PM

Rockets have erased the Wizards’ 16-point lead and have gone in front on a 21-6 run. (This proves I am paying attention at least that much.) Sengun with 10-10-5, with 3 blocked shots. He started 0 for 4 for a third-consecutive game, which indicates nothing, but seems interesting. – 2:35 PM

Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins
The Washington Wizards’ season ends today. Yes, there were injuries. And yes, there were individual successes. But on balance, the team’s 2022-23 season should be considered an abject failure. Here’s my analysis for @TheAthleticNBA:
theathletic.com/4393512/2023/0… – 10:10 AM
Neil Dalal @NeilDalal96
Kyle Kuzma still has swelling in his ankle after turning it on a courtside fan, but said he has been able to move well on the court in recent days.
He described his knee injury that he was gutting through at times as “rough”, but now “almost healthy.” – 10:05 AM
