Thanks to a late surge by Milwaukee, the Eastern Conference will send only two losing teams to the playoffs, instead of three. Thanks to a late collapse by Phoenix, only one winning team will miss the playoffs in the West. But there are still legitimate concerns over the NBA's playoff format, and league owners will begin pondering potential solutions this week, at their annual spring meeting.
Owners will be presented a "range of options," commissioner Adam Silver told Bleacher Report. But the discussion is only in its "early stages," Silver noted, and no action is expected for a while.
"There are no quick fixes," Silver said. "Frankly, if there were quick fixes, we would have already made them."

"I don't want to overreact to any particular set of circumstances," Silver said, urging caution.

It's also worth pointing out a contradiction here. NBA officials are hesitant to adopt a 16-team seeding structure because East and West teams do not play the same schedule, and therefore their records are not truly comparable. But the current division-based scheduling creates the same problem on a smaller scale, when seeding teams within a conference.
"We're fully committed to taking a fresh look and a full examination of the issues," Silver said of the entire menu of concerns. "But it's going to be a process; it's going to take some time."
