Questions people ask
How many conferences and divisions does the NBA have?
Two conferences, East and West, each with three divisions of five teams.
Why do some NBA teams share an arena?
Big cities can host two teams in one building, as the Los Angeles teams have done. The schedule makers keep home dates from clashing.
How many players are on the court for one team?
Five at a time: two guards, two forwards and a center in a classic lineup, though many teams play positionless styles.
Can I pick only Western Conference teams?
Yes. Choose West in the filter and every spin stays in that conference until you switch it back. Pick a single division to narrow it further.
