When do the NBA playoffs start?
The NBA playoffs are set to begin on April 15, 2019. The first round will consist of best-of-seven series between the eight divisional winners from the regular season, with the winners advancing to the second round. From there, the playoffs will continue until two teams remain to compete in the NBA Finals.
What is the NBA playoff schedule?
The NBA playoffs are a best-of-seven elimination tournament held after the conclusion of the National Basketball Association’s (NBA) regular season to determine the league’s champion for that year. The tournament was first held in 1947, and consists of four rounds of best-of-seven series. Eight teams from each of the league’s two conferences qualify for the playoffs based on regular season records, and a balanced schedule. The tournament brackets are made up of six divisional champions and two wild card teams.
The first three rounds are played under a best-of-seven format and involve eight teams from each conference: the three division champions directly qualifying for the semifinals (or quarterfinals, in 1949), and five more teams chosen by means of a playoff involving the remaining divisional runners-up and wild card clubs. Since 1987, home court advantage in each playoff series has been given to the team with the better record at the end of the regular season; prior to that, irrespective of regular season record, home court advantage went to whichever team had had won more head-to-head games between the two opponents during that particular season.
In all rounds except for those immediately preceding or following an NBA Finals game 7 – since 1980 – if one team wins four games (a “sweep”) before its opponent has won even one, then that team automatically wins that playoff series: no further games are played in that series, even if doing so would result in it being extended beyond its originally scheduled maximum length. From 1951 to 1954 inclusive as well as in 1956 and 1957, before either play-offs or four-game sweeps were introduced, if one team took a 3–0 lead then it automatically won that series (since no team had ever come back from such a deficit at that time). Starting with 1955–56 season until 1971–72 inclusive, if one team took a 3–1 lead then it automatically won that series (since no team had ever come back from such a deficit at that time either); however from 1972 onwards when play-offs were introduced as well as four game sweeps became possible this “automatic win if leading 3–1” rule no longer applied: instead if one team took a 3–1 lead then it still could lose that series.

If the series is tied at two games apiece, then the format changes to a 2-3-2 format. This means that the team with home court advantage will now host games 3, 5, and 7.
