-Next best 4 records in Conference Make the Playoffs as well
- Best division record among 4 teams with most wins get 1-4 seeds
- Best overall record determines 5-8 seeds

You could also just make the final 3 games of the year Division games w/ the other 3 spread out. Every year you would flip flop which teams get 2 home games and 1 away to end the season.
I am actually liking this idea except for the fact that we could potentially see a 4-12 team make the playoffs.
