2. Basketball Bundesliga 1977/78
The 1977/1978 season was the third season of the 2. Basketball Bundesliga, introduced in 1975 .
mode
It was played in two groups, north and south, each with ten teams. Before the season, the SG Munich and ADB Koblenz withdrew from play in the southern season. While the withdrawal from Koblenz became known at an early stage and the TG Hanau moved in for it, the withdrawal of SG Munich was too short-term. The southern season only played with nine teams.
After a single round, the first four teams of a season played a two-pronged promotion round with the four worst-placed teams in the main round of the Bundesliga . The points in the main round are not taken. The two best teams in each case are promoted to or remain in the basketball league. The six worst-placed teams of the respective relays play a relegation round limited to their relay (with points being taken from the main round), the last two teams relegate to the regional leagues.
