Second Round of NBA Playoffs |

Posts: 4 Joined: 2025 | How do I get the 2nd round of the playoffs, the url eventsround.php?id=4387&r=160&s=2024-2025 works for the first round but r=170 doesn't work? Using v2 with schedule next shows some upcoming games, but it doesn't seem to be a specific number. I get the next 9 games. Is this the current expected workflow for NBA playoff games? | ||

Please note that we can't accommodate some of the round names, here 160 is used for all of the play-in games and first round, then the conference semi finals use 125, the conference finals will be 150, and the finals will be 200. Special 125 = Quarter-Final 150 = Semi-Final 160 = Playoff 170 = Playoff Semi-Final 180 = Playoff Final 200 = Final 400 = Qualifier 500 = Pre-Season zag, dkartis | ||

Posts: 5 Joined: 2024 | I was just building my API based on these the other day. There isn’t any games this year that use 125 for the round. Current round numbers used on this nba season are here: https://www.thesportsdb.com/season/4387-nba/2024-2025&r=160 - Labeled as Playoff https://www.thesportsdb.com/season/4387-nba/2024-2025&r=170 - Labeled as Playoff Semi-Final I think some of the games are not set to the correct round. I built my code to pull everything between those 2 teams from that season both ways (home and away) then filter out regular season, pre season and qualifier then it just assumes the rest are playoffs between those teams. Also Playin games on NBA this season used 400. https://www.thesportsdb.com/season/4387-nba/2024-2025&r=400 | ||

To whoever changed them - I know they are not quarter-finals in NBA vernacular, but as they are the last 8 teams these games should be treated as a quarter-final stage as far as this site is concerned. Next will be semi-finals and then the final. dkartis | ||

Posts: 1,084 Joined: 2020 | Hi Ovokx, this need to be multi-sport consistent, so any time when there are 8 teams left in a tournament it should be treated as quarter-finals. Same with 4 for semi-finals, and 2 for the final. | ||

Ovokx Posts: 1,847 Joined: 2020 | I was using that round naming based on how NBA officially named its post-season games (Play-In, Playoff & Finals): https://www.nba.com/playoffs/2025 | ||

Last two teams will always be a final, last 4 teams - semi-finals, last 8 teams - quarter-finals. dkartis, xMiRaGe | ||
