How do the NBA play-offs work?
The play-offs begin with the play-in tournament between the four teams finishing seventh to 10th in the regular season.
Seventh play eighth – with the winners going straight into the play-offs to face the second seed.
But the losers get a second chance, as they then face the winners of the play-in match between the teams in ninth and 10th. The losers of that game are eliminated, while the winners go into the play-offs to face the top seeds.
Play-off rounds are decided by a best-of-seven series, with match-ups decided by seedings.
The first round is followed by the conference semi-finals, then the conference finals, with the winners of each conference meeting in the NBA Finals.
