The top 8 teams of the Eastern Conference and the top 8 teams of the Western Conference will compete in a best of 7 series until the last 2 teams in each conference are left to battle for the conference finals. The two conference finals winners will now compete for the NBA finals. The team with the most number of wins in the regular season gains the home court advantage over the opposing team. In bracketing, the first seed battles the 8th seed; the 2nd seed battles the 7th seed; the 3rd seed battles the 6th seed and also goes with the 4th and 5th seed. The winners will advance to the 2nd round then the finals.

All professional tennis events use the same basic draw sheet, which places the #1 seed at the very top, and the #2 seed at the very bottom, in order to give the two a chance to meet in the finals. The #3 seed is usually placed in the top half of the #2 seed's draw, so that they will meet in the semi-finals, while the #4 seed is usually placed in the bottom half of the #1 seed's draw, so that they will meet in the semi-finals. Of course, this rarely works out as planned, since seeds may be defeated by lower-seeded/ranked players.

There are two wild card teams for each confernce and the lowest seed plays the 3rd seed and the second lowest seed plays the fourth seed. so the answer is 4.
There are 16 teams per each region; however, there are 17 teams for the region that holds the overall number one seed because the two teams play a game and the winner may enter the NCAA
