NBA-finalerne
NBA-finalerne, der tidligere var kendt som NBA World Championship Series indtil 1987, er mesterskabsserien i National Basketball Association, der spilles i et bedst-af-syv-playoff-format. Det hold, der vinder Eastern Conference Finals, optjener en af de to pladser i mesterskabsrunden, mens den anden plads tilfalder det hold, der vinder Western Conference Finals, og som vinder Larry O' Brien Trophy, der er opkaldt efter den tidligere kommissær. Denne begivenhed er blevet spillet i slutningen af alle NBA- og BAA-sæsoner i historien. Den første blev afholdt i 1947.
