Especially with the Page-McIntyre system where the 9th place team hosts the 10th place team in an elimination game. The 7th hosts the 8th place team in the double-chance game, with the winner advancing as the 7-seed. The loser of this game then hosts the winner of the elimination game between the 9th and 10th place teams to determine the 8-seed.
Since this is ‘90, then among the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers square off for the 7th seed, while the Atlanta Hawks and Washington Bullets square off in an elimination game, before the loser of Cavs/Pacers takes on the winner of Hawks/Bullets for the 8th seed. And among the Western Conference, the Denver Nuggets and Houston Rockets battle for the 7th seed, while the Seattle SuperSonics take on the Golden State Warriors in an elimination game, before the loser of Nuggets/Rockets get the winner of Sonics/Warriors for the 8th seed.
