NBA history
The NBA was founded in new york on June 6th, 1946. Maurice Podolov was the first president of the league, and his name was printed on the league MVP trophy. There were only eleven teams at the beginning of the league, and only three of them have continued to this day. They are Warriors, Knicks and Celtics, and the other eight teams will be dissolved within five years.
At that time, the teams of 1 1 were also divided into the east and the west, but only three teams from the east and the west advanced to the playoffs. The playoff system is also strange. According to common sense, the best teams can meet in the end, but the management of BAA directly divided the Washington Congress, which is the first in the East, and the Chicago Bucks, which is the first in the West, and played the best seven games against the other four teams.
