What is the NBA Finals?
The NBA Finals is the annual championship series of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Eastern and Western conference champions play a best-of-seven game series to determine the league champion. The winning team of the series receives the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy, which replaced the Walter A. Brown Trophy in 1983.
The series was initially known as the BAA Finals prior to the 1949–50 season when the Basketball Association of America (BAA) merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) to form the NBA. The competition oversaw further name changes to NBA World Championship Series from 1950 to 1985, as well as a brief stint as the Showdown at Sam’s Town from 2004 to 2006. It was then reverted back to NBA Finals in 2007.
During those years, when famous players such as George Mikan, Bob Cousy, Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain played for dominant teams that were compared to today’s superteams, the NBA underwent explosive growth in popularity and also saw rivalries that were as intense as they were pioneering. The rivalry between Russell’s Celtics and Chamberlain’s Sixers introduced many of basketball’s now-famous concepts such as intense team play, astounding crowd support, and nationwide media coverage. Although not nearly as successful on a competitive level during most of its first three decades of operation, reception among fans was instantaneous and overwhelming—so much so that several attempts were made to either merge or outright absorb it by both leagues during its early years.

How to watch the NBA Finals
The Finals are a best-of-seven series played between the champions of the Eastern and Western Conferences. The team with the better regular season record will have home-court advantage, meaning they will host Games 1, 2, 5 and 7 at their home arena. The Warriors currently have the best record in the league and will therefore have home-court advantage over the Cavaliers.
If you want to watch the Finals live, you have a few options. You can buy a ticket to one of the games, which range in price from $500 to over $2,000 depending on where you sit. If you’re not willing to spend that much money, you can also buy a subscription to NBA League Pass, which gives you access to live streams of all games (including out-of-market games) for $200 per year. Finally, if you just want to watch the Finals, you can buy a one-time pass for $6.99.
If you can’t watch the games live, you can always wait for them to be aired on television. ABC will be airing Games 1, 3, 5 and 7 (if necessary). You can also stream the games on ABC’s website or through the ABC app if you have a cable subscription.
Conclusion
The last NBA Finals game will be played on Sunday, June 16th. It is scheduled to start at 8:00 PM EST on ABC.
