If they feel like they are the 2nd best team and only want to play the top team again in the final to take their shot then they have to ensure they are on the opposite side of the bracket.
Happens a lot in our high school playoffs where being 4 in the southwest send you with the 2 seed to play the 1 and 4 in the north east for playdowns to the final. SW traditionally stronger and 1 seeds host. so being 2 and 4 means you will most likely be playing on a neutral floor against each other to proceed to finals. Where as 3 in the SW will have to play 1 on the neutral floor. Not so much a problem with format as a disparity between NE and SW regions.
Should point out not as blatantly as in the video. No intentional violations or missed shots. But suddenly nicked up starters get the game off, players don't play to avoid getting hurt in the next round. Teams start working on new tactics and getting players "playoff experience".
