	National Basketball Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1950, the NBA consolidated to eleven franchises, a process that continued until 1954, when the league reached its smallest size of eight franchises, all of which are still in the league (the Knickerbockers, Celtics, Warriors, Lakers, Royals/Kings, Pistons, Hawks, and Nationals/76ers).
		The Sixth Man of the Year Award is given to the best player coming off the bench (not starting for his team).
		The Coach of the Year Award is awarded to either the best coach in the league or the coach that has made the most positive difference to a team.

	National Basketball Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Through this period, the NBA continued to strengthen with the shift of the Minneapolis Lakers to Los Angeles, the Philadelphia Warriors to San Francisco, and the Syracuse Nationals to Philadelphia, as well as the addition of its first expansion franchises.
		However, the NBA's leading scorer, Rick Barry jumped to the ABA, as did four veteran referees—Norm Drucker, Earl Strom, John Vanak and Joe Gushue.
		The final playoff round, a best-of-seven series between the victors of both conferences, is known as the NBA Finals, and it is held annually in June.
