* In addition to finishing tied with each other, Iowa and Sioux Falls also finished tied with Los Angeles. The tie among the three teams was broken with a multiple-team tiebreaker by comparing the teams' records in games against one another. Los Angeles was 3–2 (.600), Iowa was 4–3 (.571), and Sioux Falls was 4–6 (.400). This gave Los Angeles the #2 seed, Iowa the #3 seed and the Central Division championship and left Sioux Falls with the #4 seed. * Texas and Tulsa split their regular-season series, 3–3. Texas was 8–11 (.421) against opponents with records of .500 or better compared with Tulsa's record of 12–17 (.414) in such games.West Division
* Idaho won the season series against Bakersfield, 3–2. Notes *x indicates teams that have qualified for the playoffs with seeding in (parentheses). * If Los Angeles had not been involved in a three-way tie with Iowa and Sioux Falls, Iowa still would have won the Central Division championship. Iowa and Sioux Falls split their regular-season series, 3-3. Iowa was 13-14 (.481) against opponents with records of .500 or better compared with Sioux Falls's record of 12-13 (.480) in such games. If Sioux Falls had not been involved in a three-way tie with Iowa and Los Angeles, or if the league broke ties within divisions before interdivisional ties, Iowa would have been the #2 seed based on head-to-head record against Los Angeles, since Iowa won the only game the teams played. * If the league broke ties for non-playoff teams in the same way as it does to determine playoff seeding, the tie among Texas, Tulsa, Idaho and Bakersfield would have been broken using a multiple-team tiebreaker by considering the teams' records in games they played against one another. Tulsa was 5-4 (.556), Bakersfield was 6-5 (.545), Idaho was 5-5 (.500) and Texas was 6-8 (.429) in such games. This would have given Tulsa fourth place in the Central Division, Bakersfield fourth place in the West Division, Idaho last place in the West Division and Texas fifth place in the Central Division.Playoffs
The three division winners, along with the next five teams with the best regular-season records regardless of division qualified for the playoffs. The playoffs consist of three rounds with a best-of-three format. Teams with the better regular-season record hold home-court advantage in each round but play Game 1 on the road and Games 2 and 3 (if necessary) at home. The teams were seeded from 1 to 8 based on their regular-season records. Division winners were not given any special consideration in the seeding and could be the #8 seed. The three division winners, which may or may not be the three top seeds, had to choose their opponents in the first round from among the four lowest seeded wild-card teams. The top-seeded wild-card team was paired with the remaining team that was not chosen as an opponent by the three division winners. The two division winners which are not the top seed were placed in the lower half of the bracket which meant they would meet in the semifinals should they both advance. This would also result in the top two seeds meeting in the semifinals if they were from the same division and both advanced. For the third time, a team went 6–0 in postseason play, which saw theQuarterfinals
