End of the Playoffs
The NBA playoffs are a best-of-seven tournament held after the conclusion of the regular season to determine the league champion. The tournament consists of four rounds: the first round (or opening round), the conference semifinals, the conference finals, and the NBA Finals.
The first round of the playoffs is a best-of-seven series between the eight teams in each conference that have qualified for the playoffs. The team with the better record in each series hosts Games 1, 2, 5, and 7; the other team hosts Games 3, 4, and 6. In each series, if one team wins four games before the other team has won three games (a 4–0 sweep or a 3–1 victory), then that team automatically advances to the next round without having to play any further games. If neither team has completed four games by the end of Game 7, then a Game 7 will be played.
The conference semifinals are best-of-seven series between the four teams in each conference that have advanced from the first round of the playoffs. The two victors from each conference finals advance to compete against each other in The Finals.
The NBA Finals is a best-of-seven series between the two remaining teams in each conference that have advanced from their respective conference finals. The winner of this final series is crowned as NBA champion for that season.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the 2022 NBA Playoffs will most likely start in mid-April and end in mid-June. However, the exact dates have not yet been announced.
