    Two-team tiebreaker:


    1. Division winner (this criterion is applied regardless of whether the tied teams are in the same division)
    2. Better record in head-to-head games
    3. Higher winning percentage within division (if teams are in the same division)
    4. Higher winning percentage in conference games
    5. Higher winning percentage against playoff teams in own conference (including tied teams)
    6. Higher winning percentage against playoff teams in opposite conference (including tied teams)

    Three-team tiebreaker:

    1. Division winner (this criterion is applied regardless of whether the tied teams are in the same division)
    2. Best head-to-head winning percentage among all teams tied
    3. Highest winning percentage within division (if all tied teams are in the same division)
    4. Highest winning percentage in conference games
    5. Highest winning percentage against playoff teams in own conference (including tied teams)
    6. Highest point differential between points scored and points allowed

    Hawks won't need it. All other teams are letting them win so the Knicks won't make the playoffs. NBA should investigate.
