it means that in round 2 they reseed the matchups based on their rankings. Instead of forcing the matchups through the set brackets from the beginning.
example:
winners of round 1: - 1Heat, 3Raptors, 5Wizards, 8Hawks.
RESEEDING WOULD BE: 1heat vs 8hawks (thus giving the team with the best record in the regular season the biggest advantage in the 2nd round, which in my mind makes the most sense). 3raptors vs 5wizards
NBA / NON-RESEEDING FORMAT: 1heat vs 3raptors / 5wizards vs 8hawks
