The '''playoffs''' are a competition held after the end of the regular season. The best teams of the regular season meet the others in a system of successive rounds of direct elimination, not dissimilar to tournaments. Usually, series are played as a best-of format, a team needing to win two, three or four games to advance to the next round. |
