Starting this season, the Finals MVP will receive the Bill Russell NBA Finals MVP, commissioner David Stern announced last Saturday.
Russell anchored the Boston Celtics dynasty in the 60’s, a 5-time NBA MVP and won 11 championships as a player and a coach. But he never won the Finals MVP.
“Who better to name this prestigious award for than one of the greatest players of all time and the ultimate champion,” said Stern.
