LEB Plata seasons

The 2007–08 LEB Plata season was the 8th season of the LEB Plata, second league of the Liga Española de Baloncesto and third division in Spain. It is also named Adecco Plata for sponsorship reasons.

Competition format

[edit]

18 teams play the regular season. This is a round robin, where each team will play twice against every rival. The champion of the Regular Season is promoted to LEB Oro and the eight next teams join the play-offs. A best-of-three quarterfinal and a Final Four decided the second promoted team.

The last two qualified teams were relegated to LEB Bronce.

If two or more teams have got the same number of winning games, the criteria of tie-breaking are these:

  1. Head-to-head winning games.
  2. Head-to-head points difference.
  3. Total points difference.
