Awarded each year to the winners of the Super Bowl, the Lombardi Trophy is the most coveted award in American football. The Super Bowl was known as the AFL-NFL World Championship Game in the early years of the event, until a merger between the American Football and National Football Leagues led to the renaming of the championship game in 1970. Likewise, in the first two championship games between the rival leagues, the Lombardi Trophy was inscribed with “World Professional Football Championship.”

Today’s National Basketball Association (NBA) championship winner receives and retains a specially created trophy for obtaining the top ranking in the league, though this was not always the case.

Brown was the first owner of the Boston Celtics and an instrumental figure in the merging of the Basketball Association of America (BAA) and National Basketball League (NBL) to form the NBA in 1949.

When all was said and done, the Lakers advanced in six games, primarily because they played great defense when it mattered most. Phoenix, on the other hand, watched from home once again, all because they couldn’t.
