Should have included the 47-48-49 champions from the BAA to make it just a little tougher. A NBA history nut like me would have loved it and I know I wouldn't have remembered at least one of the three. The other 65 are a lot easier.

Warriors ('47), Bullets ('48) and Lakers ('49). After a while, you just have an automatic association between the year and the team.

It's probably not a bad strategy to guess Celtics or Lakers from 1950 through the 80's and then the Spurs through the 2000's.

The 1970's was the only decade that wasn't controlled by a dynasty, and even then the Celtics and Lakers each won two.

Lakers only won 1 title in the 70's. 1972. From the season that ended in 1970 through the season that ended in 1979, the Celtics and Knicks are the only teams to win more than once.

I got 34. That gave me 52%. That's probably the highest I'll ever score on a sports quiz. I just guessed team names I knew. So I first tried Lakers for every slot. That netted me a lot of answers. Then I tried Celtics, and didn't do to well until I hit that long winning streak they had. Then I tried Bluejays. Google tells me that Bluejays isn't an NBA team. Looking at the other winners... yeah, I don't really know those teams. Just sounds like a bunch of phony, made up names to me.

67/67 with 36 seconds left! Was putting 76ers down as 1956 then realised that the it was the Philly Warriors that won it. Would be a boring quiz if you didn't have to match the team by the year.

What's wild is if Bill Russell hadn't gotten hurt in 1958 (knee injury in Game 2, I believe), Boston would've most likely won 10 straight titles. Even in the early NBA, that would be tremendous. (I'm a Chicago native, by the way. Hate Boston teams.)

can you expand the quiz from 1947 since technically the NBA counts its excistance from the BAA which starts in 1947 and merged later with the NBL in 1949.
