About This Quiz
The Lakers and Celtics have a million banners hanging up there. We get it.
But naming the actual years? That's a whole different game.
The Bulls owned the '90s. Boston just won in 2024. Maybe you caught the Raptors' run in 2019. That's three answers down, and you're probably feeling pretty good about yourself.
Here's the problem—this goes back to 1947. The Rochester Royals won one. The Baltimore Bullets too. Half these teams don't even exist anymore, and you're gonna have to figure out when they actually won.
You've been talking like you know everything about basketball. Time to prove it without googling.
