NBA Schedule based on Single-round Robin System

Abstract:
The rapid development of multimedia platforms enables NBA to become an indispensable part of many fans' life. However, the schedule arrangement will directly affect the fairness of the game [1]. For a physically demanding competitive game such as basketball, the arrangement of rest periods in consecutive periods is very important. For the problem of the NBA's 30 teams playing a single-round robin, this paper will adopt the counterclockwise round-robin and linear programming based on the single-round robin system to achieve a reasonable schedule for 30 teams.
