I always thought it would be cool if the highest seed got to pick their opponent .....

 

example:

 

#1 Atlanta does like the Nets matchup so they select #7Boston 

#2 Cleveland doesn't like the Nets matchup so they select #6Milwaukee

#3 Bulls select #4 Raptors

#5 Wizards get the #8Nets.

 

Each round you go through the same process.....
