ESPN placement of those two teams in the standings are incorrect UNLESS they are treating their season series at 1-1 to be in TOR's favour as the Raps were +3 in the point differential.

Actually, the Kings are a half-game ahead of Toronto because they have one less loss. Based solely on strength of schedule, the Raptors seem likely to finish ahead of Sacramento, though Hollinger's Playoff Odds predict that they will finish with the same record. If that happens, it is my understanding that the Kings and Raptors would be given essentially the same Lottery odds, which would be the average of 4th and 5th place in the Lottery.
It puts them behind the Kings for standings purposes as of the current records.
If they finish the season tied, you are correct. But the discussion was not about the end of the season, it was about right now.
