The NBA officially released the schedule for the Eastern and Western Conference Finals on Wednesday night, setting the stage for an exciting finish to the postseason. For fans of the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers, the path to the Eastern Conference Finals against the New York Knicks hinges on how quickly their series wraps up.

If the Pistons can close out the Cavaliers in six games, they'll tip off the Eastern Conference Finals at home in Little Caesars Arena on Sunday, May 17. However, if the series pushes to a decisive Game 7, the first game against the Knicks will shift to Tuesday, May 19. The same scenario applies to the Cavaliers—should they advance, their schedule mirrors Detroit's depending on whether the series ends in six or seven games.

The Eastern Conference Finals, broadcast on ESPN or ABC, will follow one of two schedules:

If the Pistons-Cavaliers series ends in six games: May 17, 19, 23, 25, 27*, 29*, 31*

If the series goes to seven games: May 19, 21, 23, 25, 27*, 29*, 31*

Out West, the San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves are battling for a spot in the Western Conference Finals, which will air on NBC and Peacock. Their schedule also depends on series length:

If the Spurs-Timberwolves series ends in six games: May 18, 20, 22, 24, 26*, 28*, 30*

If it goes to seven games: May 20, 22, 24, 26, 28*, 30*, June 1*

As the playoffs heat up, this is the perfect time for basketball fans to gear up in their team's colors.
