Is there a chance we end up behind them in the lottery or do the play-in teams fall into the 11-14 spots regardless of regular season record? It would make sense so as to punish weak conferences such as the East historically. To me, those that qualify for the playoffs should be inherently ranked higher. But I wouldn't be surprised.

It really depends if they make the playoffs proper.
1) If they win in the play-in and go to the playoffs, then they will be bumped to 15 and everyone below them that did not make the lottery will be bumped up one spot.
2) If they lose one or both games in the play-in and don't make the playoffs, then they will keep their position.
