The Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy

This is a list of franchises that have won the championship series of the National Basketball Association (NBA), and Basketball Association of America (BAA) (from 1946–49). All NBA Finals have been played in a best-of-seven format, and contested between the winners of the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference (formerly Divisions before 1970), except in 1950 in which the Eastern Division champion faced the winner between the Western and Central Division champions.

The home-and-away format was in a 2-2-1-1-1 format (that is, the team with the better regular season record plays on their home court in Games 1, 2, 5 and 7) until 1985 (except 1953–55, 1975 and 1978, the latter two in a 1-2-2-1-1 format). After 1985, the games were changed to a 2-3-2 format (the team with the better regular season record plays on their home court in Games 1-2 and 6-7). However, all other playoff series are still in a 2-2-1-1-1 format.[1]

Before 1978, winning teams won the Brown Trophy for a year until the next champion was determined. From 1978 to 1983 the Walter A. Brown Trophy was awarded, and since 1984, the champions have won the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy.

The Eastern Conference/Division leads the Western Conference/Division in the number of won series with 35–26. The old Central Division won one championship.
