The money is distributed like this:
1st place share (50%) – Given to the playoff champion
2nd place share (25%) – Given to the playoff runner-up
3rd place share (15%) – Given to the highest playoff seed not in the championship game
4th place share (10%) – Given to the second highest playoff seed not in the championship game
The 3rd and 4th place awards give some consolation to those teams who did well in the regular season but got upset in the playoffs. I.e. if the first place team in the regular season (1 seed) gets beat in the second or third round, then he will get the 3rd place share.
