*Main Formats

 

The in-season tournament will be divided into two stages: group stage and knockout stage. In order to ensure the fairness of the competition, the group draws are first, then the group stage, and then the knockout stage.

In order to determine each team's opponents, the two divisions will randomly divide the 15 teams in their respective divisions into three groups of five teams in each group. In order to be relatively fair, the grouping rules are based on the record of the previous season, and are divided into five tiers. The first to third tiers are the first tier, and the fourth to sixth are the second tier. By analogy, it is ensured that the 5 teams in each group are from different first-tier teams.

 

*group stage

 

 Based on the performance and results of the 2023 season, 30 teams will be randomly divided into six divisions, with 5 teams in each division. Each team will compete against other teams in its conference, which will result in four group matches. Two of them are home games and the other two are away games. The results of these four games will determine whether the team can advance to the knockout rounds. What if there are teams with the same ranking in a certain conference? Then make a decision based on the following rules:

1)The head-to-head record in the group stage;

2)Point difference in the group stage;

3)Total points scored in the group stage;

4)2022-23 NBA regular season record;

 

If by chance, there is still a tie after these screenings, then it can only be left to God's will and random drawing of lots. Of course, the probability of this happening is extremely slim. This is the general content of group stage. Next, let’s take a look at the knockout format.

 

*knockout stage

 

After the group stage, 8 teams will advance to the knockout rounds. The eight qualifying places are composed of the first place in the six divisions and the top two teams among the second place in each division. In order to allow everyone to enjoy more games, the knockout round will be a single elimination round, so there will be quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals. The quarter-finals pit the two teams from the group stage against the wild card team. Then it proceeds step by step to the semi-finals, and the two teams with the best records enter the championship night for the finals. In the event of a tie, the decision will still be based on the rules mentioned above. By the way, on other days when there are no knockout rounds scheduled, the 22 teams that have not entered the knockout round will each play two regular season games, and their game performance will also be recorded in the final score.

 

Each team will have 82 regular season games in Season 24, including 67 in-season tournament games. At the conclusion of the season tournament, the NBA will select the game's Most Valuable Player and All-Tournament Team. Of course, the selection criteria are based on each player's performance in the group stage and knockout stage. 

 

Therefore, you can be sure that the in-season tournament will definitely be a feast for your eyes. Players, hurry up and pick up your mobile phone to Buy NBA 2k24 Coins to collect your favorite players.
