The bottom six spots in the Eastern Conference are crucial as the Toronto Raptors and Atlanta Hawks are both 12.5 games behind Detroit Pistons in the No. 5 and No. 6 spots. This follows a recent road win in Charlotte that pushed the Hornets down to the bottom of the standings and moved the Orlando Magic and Miami Heat up a slot each. Meanwhile, Philadelphia has eight games remaining to break into the top six, including four games against teams below them in the standings. The top four teams appear to be set, but there is a chance of a change in the order.
