NBA ROUNDUP \ Tuesday's games

76ers 91, Nets 88
PHILADELPHIA -- Allen Iverson and Chris Webber did not play because of injuries, did not show up in the locker room until tip-off and missed Philadelphia's win. The 76ers will fine Iverson and Webber for not being at the arena 90 minutes before the game against the Nets, and the duo might not make the trip to close out the season in Charlotte on Wednesday. King said he knew at Tuesday morning's shoot-around that Iverson and Webber would be given the home regular-season finale off because of injuries. But King did expect the Sixers' leading scorers to be at the game. Andre Iguodala had 27 points for the Sixers, Willie Green had 14 and Steven Hunter 10. Lamond Murray scored 19 points for New Jersey, Vince Carter had 16 and Jacque Vaughn added 13 assists.
Wizards 116, Bucks 103
WASHINGTON -- Gilbert Arenas scored 31 of his 43 points in the second half, and Washington overcame a career-high 43 points from Michael Redd. Redd and Arenas combined for 62 points in the second half as the two catalysts dueled with playoff intensity for the chance to avoid Detroit, Miami or New Jersey in the first round. Rarely has such a fuss been made over fifth place, but no one wants to face one of the top three seeds when Cleveland, returning to the playoffs after a long absence, is an available opponent at No. 4. The victory gave the Wizards a one-game lead over Chicago and Indiana and a 1 1/2-game lead over Milwaukee. All four teams have clinched playoff berths, but their seeds won't be decided until Wednesday. Antawn Jamison added 28 points, and Butler scored 22 for the Wizards, who have won two straight after a five-game losing streak. The two wins coincided with the return of Butler, who missed five games with a sprained right thumb. T.J. Ford scored 26 points for the Bucks, and Bobby Simmons had 20 before fouling out with 4:40 to play after committing three fouls in less than a minute.
Hawks 103, Heat 100
ATLANTA -- Tyronn Lue's 3-pointer with 8.3 seconds left gave Atlanta a victory over a Miami team that was without its head coach and three top players. Miami, looking ahead to the playoffs and intent on having its top players avoid injury, stayed close despite having leading scorers Shaquille O'Neal and Dwyane Wade watch the game in street clothes. Coach Pat Riley was visiting his sick mother in upstate New York. Miami also had their other two starters, forwards James Posey and Udonis Haslem, play backup roles. Antoine Walker, Wayne Simien, Dorell Wright, Jason Williams and Michael Doleac -- who combine to average 31.7 points per game -- were the new starters. Wright scored a career-high 19 points, Jason Kapono had 16 and Walker added 14. Zaza Pachulia had 18 points for Atlanta, Marvin Williams had 16 and Lue 15.
Grizzlies 101, Clippers 95
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Jake Tsaklalidis scored 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds, while Lorenzen Wright finished with 17 points as Memphis earned a better seeding but less favorable match-up in the first round of the playoffs. The win gives Memphis the fifth seed in the Western Conference and an opening round match-up against Dallas. The Clippers, who lost their second straight and fifth in the last seven, dropped to the sixth seed but will have home-court advantage Northwest Division champion Denver.
