The Portland Trail Blazers won’t know their opponent for the second round of the 2019 NBA Playoffs until about 10pm tomorrow night, after the Denver Nuggets and San Antonio Spurs play Game 7 of their first-round series. However, the NBA has already announced two sets of schedules for the Blazers — one based on a series against Denver and the other against San Antonio.
In either scenario, the Blazers will kick off their Conference Semifinal campaign at 7.30pm PST on Monday at either the Moda Center (against the Spurs) or Pepsi Center (against the Nuggets).
Portland will have one-day breaks in between each game — regardless of the opponent — except for two-day breaks between games 6 and 7, if they take place.
