Milwaukee and Detroit play each other on Tuesday night, and the winner will officially take Group B. Both are still alive as potential wild cards with a loss, too, but need a better overall point differential than the Celtics and the loser of New York and Orlando.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, the team with the best record in the Eastern Conference, will not have a chance to win the NBA Cup. They have been eliminated from contention. The defending champion Boston Celtics might not advance to the quarterfinals either, and the Oklahoma City Thunder, atop the Western Conference, may be left out, too.
