Playoff seeding question

[FirstCoast]

I was expecting to have the #2 seed today, but found I was still #3 and can't figure out why. Me and the #2 are both 7-4, but I beat him head to head, and the league tiebreaker of total points for goes to me (1073-990). He did win the western division, but I don't see how that can have much bearing when it wasn't the tiebreaker. Am I missing something here?

Div leaders go 1,2 respectively. I'm guessing you're 2nd in the East, therefore putting you in the #3 seed.

Yep. Ugh that's weak, oh well.
