Hm... If three teams are tied at X wins and one team is at X-1, this scenario could happen in OOTP. I'll use 89-73 as the tie point.
One team sweeps the division tiebreaker, standings are now:
Team A 91-73
Team B 89-74
Team C 89-74
Team D 88-74
OOTP then tries to determine which teams are in the wild card tiebreaker, and incorrectly judges Team D as part of the tie. Team D wins the tiebreaker.
Team A 91-73
Team D 89-74
Team B 90-75
Team C 89-76
Both are 1.5 games back of Team A, but Team D's winning percentage is 0.5460 and Team B's winning percentage is 0.5455, giving Team D the spot.
