if boston holds on to the atlantic, the worst seed they could be is the 3 seed correct? Even if orlando and atlanta both finish with a better record?

They tweaked the procedure a few years back.  They could be the 4 seed in worse case scenario.

Teams 1 to 4 in each conference are the three division winners and the team with the next best regular-season record, with the seeding of these four teams determined by regular-season record. The playoffs seedings of Teams 5 to 8 are based upon regular-season record. Ties are broken pursuant to the rules set forth below.
