The NBA has not yet decided on the play-in schedule. We know that the play-offs will take place on April 16, 17 and 19, but the league announced on Saturday that the order of the matches depended on the presence, or not, of the Sixers in this “play-in”. For the moment, it is impossible to know the final order with four teams fighting for places 5 to 8: the Magic, the Pacers, the Sixers and the Heat.
If Philly remains 7th,
April 16: the two Western matches (7th against 8, then 9th against 10th)
April 17: Philadelphia – 8th in the East at 1:00 a.m. // Chicago – Atlanta at 3:30 a.m.
April 19: East dam // West dam
If Philly goes 6th,
April 16: 7th – 8th in the East // 7th – 8th in the West
April 17: Chicago – Atlanta at 1:30 a.m. // 9th against 10th in the West at 3:30 a.m.
April 19: East dam // West dam
For the playoffs, they will begin on April 20 with, usually, four matches, including three on the East Coast. Each year, the first two matches take place at 7:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. French time.
