The 2010–11 LEB Oro season is the 15th season of the Liga Española de Baloncesto. It's named too Adecco Oro by sponsorship reasons. The 306-game regular season (34 games for each of the 18 teams) began on Friday, October 1, 2010, and will end on Friday, April 15, 2011. The champion of the regular season will be promoted to Liga ACB. The teams between 2nd and 9th position will play a best of 5 games play off, where the winner will be promoted too to the higher division. The teams 16th and 17th will play a best of 5 games play-out where the loser will be relegated to LEB Plata, with the 18th team.
All teams must have in their roster:
Teams can not sign any player after February 28.
Each team of every division has to play with all the other teams of its division twice, once at home and the other at the opponent's stadium. This means that in Liga LEB the league ends after every team plays 34 games.
Like many other leagues in continental Europe, the Liga LEB takes a winter break once each team has played half its schedule. One feature of the league that may be unusual to North American observers is that the two halves of the season are played in the same order—that is, the order of each team's first-half fixtures is repeated in the second half of the season, with the only difference being the arenas used. This procedure is typical in Europe; it is also used by La Liga in football.
If two or more teams have got the same number of winning games, the criteria of tie-breaking are these:
At the final of the season:
CB Murcia and Xacobeo Blu:sens were directly relegated from ACB after finishing in the bottom two places and they will substitute CAI Zaragoza (champion) and ViveMenorca.
CB Cornellà and Ciudad de Vigo Básquet left the league after finishing in 17th and 18th position. Also, CB Cornellà lost the play-out with CB Tarragona 2017. Fundación Adepal Alcázar as champion of LEB Plata and Lobe Huesca as LEB Plata play-off winner will enjoy the league.
