After final-night party, time to get to business in the NBA

Between Kobe Bryant's last call and the Warriors' last win, the final night of the NBA season was party time. Houston earned the only postseason spot that was available with a 116-81 victory over Sacramento, giving the Rockets the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference, a playoff rematch with record-setting Golden State, and officially making Bryant's final game nothing more than a ceremony. Utah would have finished eighth with a Rockets loss and a victory over the Lakers in Los Angeles, but the Jazz lost anyway when Bryant scored 60 points in a scintillating final performance before retirement.
