The NBA Season
The NBA Season is set to start back up on December 22, 2020. The season was supposed to start on October 22, 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was pushed back. Some of the key changes for this season include: each team playing 72 games instead of 82, no All-Star game, and the playoffs will start a week later than usual. Let’s take a more in-depth look at the NBA Season.
The NBA’s regular season
The National Basketball Association (NBA) is the premier professional basketball league in the United States and Canada. The league is truly global, with games and programming in 215 countries and territories in 47 languages, as well as NBA-licensed merchandise sold worldwide.
The NBA’s regular season runs from October through April. Each team plays 82 games in the hopes of securing one of the eight playoff spots in their respective conference. The playoffs are a single-elimination tournament that culminates in the NBA Finals, which is a best-of-seven series between the two conference champions.
The NBA’s postseason
The National Basketball Association (NBA) playoffs are a best-of-seven elimination tournament annually held after the NBA’s regular season to determine the league’s champion. 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.
The fourth round, otherwise known as the NBA Finals, is played between the winners of the conference semifinals. These Conference Finals are best-of-seven series. The winner of each Conference Finals earns a berth in the NBA Finals, which is also a best-of-seven series.
When does the NBA season start back up?
The NBA season usually starts in October and goes until June. However, the season may start later if there is a lockout. A lockout is when the players and the owners of the team cannot agree on a new contract. This can happen if the players want more money, or if the owners want the players to play fewer games.
The NBA’s regular season
The National Basketball Association (NBA) is a professional basketball league in North America. The NBA is widely considered to be the premier men’s professional basketball league in the world.
The NBA’s regular season starts in October and ends in April. The playoffs start in April and end in June.
The NBA Finals are the championship series of the NBA Playoffs. The Finals are a best-of-seven series between the two conference champions, who are determined by the playoff bracket.
The NBA’s postseason
The postseason is a single-elimination tournament held after the conclusion of the regular season to determine the NBA champion. Seeds are awarded in strict order of regular-season record with a tiebreaker system used to seed teams with identical records. The tournament follows a preset bracket structure.
The first two rounds are referred to as the “first” and “second” rounds while the third and fourth rounds are called the “conference semifinals” and “conference finals”, respectively. Since the conference finals are designed to match up the two best teams from each conference, regardless of whether they played in the first or second round, four conference final series have featured teams seeded eighth or lower.
Conclusion
The 2017-2018 NBA regular season will tentatively begin on October 17, 2017 and end on April 10, 2018. The playoffs will then follow and the NBA Finals is slated to begin on June 1, 2018 and end no later than June 18, 2018. All of these dates are subject to change depending on various factors such as player contracts, scheduling conflicts, etc.
