By Joe Vardon Verified, John Hollinger Verified| The Athletic Verified An NBA regular season marked by shocking trades and stunning dismissals of coaches whose teams were in the playoff hunt came down to the final day for six Western teams to learn, and earn, their fates. One of those teams that fired its coach over the last two weeks claimed the No. 4 seed, and one of the teams to pull off a blockbuster trade fell into the Play-In Tournament in devastating fashion. The Denver Nuggets beat the Houston Rockets 126-111 Sunday to capture the No. 4 seed.
By Joe Vardon Verified| The Athletic Verified NEW YORK - Another NBA season has come down to its final day to determine playoff positioning and who is banished to purgatory, the Play-In Tournament. Only, the drama doesn't get started until a little later Sunday. Game No. 82 is Sunday for the league's 30 teams, and in the Western Conference, seeds four through 10 are yet to be settled. The East's playoff picture is settled in full, which means nothing can be gained by any of the seven games that start at 1 p.m. Eastern.
