The New York Liberty and Dallas Wings both advanced to the semifinals of the 2023 WNBA playoffs on Tuesday. They did so in markedly different fashion, however. In the first game of the doubleheader, the Liberty outlasted the Washington Mystics in an chaotic overtime thriller, 90-85. The Wings, on the other hand, cruised to the biggest win in franchise playoff history, beating the Atlanta Dream, 101-74. 
After last season’s format change, there are no longer any byes in the playoffs. The eight teams are placed in a standard bracket, with No. 1 vs. No. 8, No. 2 vs. No. 7, No. 3 vs. No. 6 and No. 4 vs. No. 5. The first-round series is best-of-three, while the semifinals and Finals are both best-of-five. 
One important note is that the first round is played under a 2-1 format, which means the higher seed has Games 1 and 2 at home, while the lower seed has the deciding Game 3 at home, if necessary. The semis and Finals are both 2-2-1, with the higher seed having Games 1, 2 and 5, if necessary, at home.
