The Pacers are hot winning 5 straight and 7 of their last 10 games, but while they are in the 8th sport in the East they do not control their playoff destiny. They are ? game up on the Brooklyn Nets, but the Nets have the tiebreaker so Indiana has to finish with a better record to make the post-season.
The Wizards are all but assured of the 5th seed in the East and in the first round of the playoffs they will face the Raptors or Bulls.
