Formerly known as the Syracuse Nationals, the Philadelphia 76ers are an American professional basketball team whose base is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They are a member of the National Basketball Association and play in the Eastern Conference’s Atlantic Division. From its old name, the team was renamed “76ers” by Walter Stalberg, the winner in the contest which was specifically launched to find the most suitable name. This name was derived from the year when Independence was declared in Philadelphia. Eventually, the nickname “Sixers” was initiated by the press as they addressed the team in their write-ups. Like other NBA teams, the Philadelphia 76ers have had a very rich and promising record during their early years and have made an appearance yet again in the 2001 Finals with Iverson in the lead, but ended losing 4 games to 1.
