The regular season in the NBA is entering a hot phase. Only a few more weeks, then the playoffs start and every team wants to go there.
The 2018 playoffs will start in the NBA on 14. April, three days after the end of the regular season. Then the eight best teams of the Eastern and Western Conference will compete in a best-of-seven series.
Like last year, you can watch all the NBA Playoffs live on DAZN. The sports streamin service broadcasts at least one match live every day during the regular season.
DAZN also has the simultaneous NHL playoffs in its program. Fans of the MLB and NFL will also get their money’s worth.
In addition, DAZN will also be showing top football from the European Premier League, Primera Division, Ligue 1 and Serie A top leagues.
In both the West and the East, the eight teams with the best record are entering the playoffs. In the first round, the eighth of the conference will then meet the first, the seventh to the second, the sixth to the third and the fifth to the fourth.
Each round consists of a best-of-seven series. The team that wins four games first is one round down. The team with the better balance from the regular season, has a home advantage in the series. The seventh game, which is definitely the deciding factor, would therefore be played in their hall.
No matter how many games the final teams need to make it to the finals, the date is certain to be: On 31st of September, the final will take place. In May the series for the championship in the NBA will start.
The NBA Finals will end no later than 16. June with game 7 of the series.
