Does anyone know how the NBA teams are arranged?

NBA format.

NBA games are divided into two parts: the regular season and the playoffs. The regular season begins in early November and ends around April 20 of the following year. The playoffs begin in late April and continue until mid-June when the overall champion is decided.

The NBA's regular season is played on a home-and-away basis, with 29 teams playing a total of 1,189 games during the regular season, with each team playing 82 games during the regular season.

However, the number of games played by teams against each other during the regular season varies. Teams in the same league and the same division play two home and two away games, a total of 4 games; There are two games between teams in different leagues, one home and one away; Two or three games are played between two teams in different divisions of the same league, the number of games varies from team to team, but the total number of games guaranteed to each team in the regular season is 82.

At the end of the regular season, the top 8 teams in the Eastern and Western Conferences will be ranked according to their game win percentage (82 wins), and these 16 teams will qualify for the playoffs. The playoffs are first played within the Eastern and Western leagues, and the format of the matchup is; 1st vs. 8th, 3rd vs. 6th, 2nd vs. 7th, 4th vs. 5th. The playoffs are eliminated, with the first and second rounds playing a best-of-5 format, with whichever team wins the first three regular games to eliminate the opponent.

Matches are arranged home and away according to the 2,2,1 principle, which means that the top teams in the regular season will receive the advantage of the first two and the last three home games (two home games first, then two home games, and the last home game).

The NBA Finals in the third round of the regular season (i.e., the Eastern and Western Conference Finals) and the Eastern and Western Conference champions will be played in a best-of-seven format, with home and away games arranged according to the 2,3,2 principle.

There are three divisions in each of the East and West, and the first place in each region goes directly to the playoffs.

That is, no matter how bad your results are, as long as you are the first place in this division, you will directly enter the season play-off round. The first place in each region is based on the ranking of the results. The other five teams that make the playoffs are decided based on their results.

The top three in the three divisions in the West this year are the Spurs, Suns and Nuggets. Although the Nuggets' results are not as good as the Mavericks, he is the first place in the division he is in, and his record is worse than the Spurs and the Suns, so he is in third place. No matter how good the Mavericks are, if they can't surpass the Spurs, he can only finish fourth.

Here's why.

1vs8 2vs7 3vs6 4vs5

Teams in the same zone play 4 games.

It seems that both the western and eastern sides will only play 2 games

Hey, it's not very clear.

The NBA's roster is basically based on the principle of not letting the polarization become too serious, and each year's top pick is the team that was worse than the previous season. Year after year of rotation, although in recent years there has been a significant expansion of the gap between strength and weakness, but David's wish has not changed!!

Every team has to meet to play a game.

The top 8 in the East and West are in the playoffs.

After that, the first place in the East and West ranked eighth hit.

The second hits the seventh.

And so on. The team that won 4 of the 7 matches advanced to the tournament.

Then there are 4 teams left each, with the highest regular season ranking and the lowest playing.

And so on.

Then there are 2 teams left each.

The two sides played, and the last winning team from the east and west played.

The team that wins in the end is the overall champion.

The NBA's regular season is played on a home-and-away basis, with a total of 16 teams qualifying for the playoffs, the top eight teams in the Western Conference until mid-June, and the Western Conference is ranked in the same way. The number of games varies from team to team, with the NBA divided into regular season and playoffs, with each team playing 82 games in the regular season. The playoffs are elimination.

The game is arranged home and away according to the 2-2-1-1-1 principle, and the team with the highest winning percentage in the East ranks first; Two teams from different divisions of the same league play 2 to 3 games and two away games, and the other 6 teams are ranked according to the winning percentage of the game (win rate 82 wins), one away game, a total of 4 games. Teams from the same league and the same division play two home games, and the other region in the East has the highest win percentage in second place, third vs. sixth, but the total number of games in the regular season is guaranteed to be 82 games. However, in the regular season, the number of games played between teams varies, and whichever team wins four games first will eliminate their opponents, second against seventh.

The playoffs generally start in late April and are played in the form of:

After the regular season, 29 teams play a total of 1,189 games in the regular season season, and the game adopts a best-of-seven system; Teams from different leagues play a home match, 4th vs. 5th, and the team that is at the top of the regular season will get an extra home advantage. The playoffs are played first within the Eastern and Western leagues; 1st vs. 8th

Rule 1: Margin of Win is the difference between the team's goal difference and the division leader divided by 2.

Rule 2: The top eight teams from each of the East and West divisions advance to the playoffs. The top four teams in the same division will be ranked according to their records, while the remaining four teams will be ranked according to their respective records.

Rule 3: Home court advantage between two teams in the playoffs is determined by their regular season win percentage, not by ranking.

Rule 4: When the difference between the two teams is the same, the order will be ranked according to the following basis:

1. The best record between each other is in the top;

2. The highest winning rate in the division (only applicable when the two teams belong to the same division);

3. The opponent with a high winning rate against the same league (East and West League) is in the top;

4. The top team with the highest winning rate when playing against the top eight teams in the league with the same score;

5. The top 8 teams in another sub-league have the highest winning rate;

6. The difference between gains and losses is high.

Rule 5: When the difference between the three teams and more than three teams is the same, the order will be sorted according to the following basis:

1. All the three teams (or more) have the best overall record in each other's confrontations;

2. The opponent with a high winning rate against the same league (East and West League) is in the top;

3. The highest winning rate in the competition area (applicable when each team belongs to the same division);

4. The top one with the highest winning rate against the other top eight teams in the league is the highest;

5. The difference between gains and losses is high.

The overall division is divided into East and West Divisions, with teams in the same division playing two games home and away for a total of four games. Teams from different divisions play one game each home and away, for a total of two games.

Divided into east and west, the game time is pre-arranged, and each team can play 66 games.

To the uninitiated, it's a mess.
