The NBA Season
When does the NBA season start?
The NBA season starts on October 22, 2019 and ends on April 15, 2020.
What is the NBA schedule like?
The National Basketball Association (NBA) schedule is dictated by a number of factors, the main one being television. Games are scheduled so that as many people as possible can watch them, which means that there are usually several games played each day during the season. The other factor that affects the NBA schedule is the need for each team to play every other team an equal number of times. This ensures that the playing field is level and that no team has an advantage over another.
How many games are in the NBA season?
The NBA season is 82 games long. Each team plays every other team in their conference four times, and every team in the opposite conference three times. There are also two games against a couple of teams in the other conference that the League schedule makers believe will be good match-ups. Those games are called “cross-over” games.

The higher-seeded team will have home-court advantage, meaning they will host Games 1, 2, 5, and 7 (if necessary). The first round of the playoffs is called the conference quarterfinals, followed by the conference semifinals, then the conference finals. The two winners of the conference finals will meet in the NBA Finals.
How many games are in the NBA playoffs?
The NBA playoffs are a best-of-seven elimination tournament annually held after the National Basketball Association’s (NBA) regular season to ultimately decide the league’s champion. Sixteen teams, eight from each conference, enter the playoffs each year. Seeds are awarded in strict order of regular season record (with a tiebreaker system used as needed).
First Round: The three division winners from each conference plus the team with the next best regular season record in each conference regardless of division (the “wild card”) play each other in two best-of-seven series. The winners of these series advance to the Conference Semifinals.
Conference Semifinals: The four survivors of the First Round series play best-of-seven series against each other. The Conference Finals are then played between the two remaining Survivors, with home court advantage determined by better record.
The NBA Finals: The winners of the Conference Finals play a best-of-seven series to determine the NBA Champion. Home court advantage is awarded to the team with the better regular season record; if both teams have identical records, then it goes to the team who won its conference final series first.
