Chicago moved one game ahead of Toronto for the East's No. 3 seed by storming back to beat Detroit 106-98 on Friday. The Bulls have already clinched home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, so the worst they can finish is in fourth place.
"Right now, we're just focused on basketball and making plays for each other, moving forward and getting better," said forward Taj Gibson, whose team trailed by as many as 18 in the third quarter. "That's the only thing we're focused on right now. Everything that's gonna come with success is gonna come. But right now, we remember how nobody was on our bandwagon at the beginning of the year, how that felt."
The Knicks were officially eliminated from contention Saturday when Atlanta clinched the final playoff berth with a 98-85 win over Miami.
"We can't get mad at Atlanta, we can't get mad at anybody but ourselves," New York's J.R. Smith said. "We dug this grave, we have to lie in it."
Chicago hosts Orlando on Monday before visiting Charlotte for Wednesday's regular-season finale.
"We're just trying to finish strong," Augustin, averaging 21.4 points in five games this month, told the team's official website. "We don't want to go into the playoffs playing terrible or making mistakes, not focusing. That's the main thing we are trying to do every game, focus down the stretch and play hard."
