    50th Anniversary of Syracuse Nationals NBA Championship WHEREAS, The Syracuse Nationals joined the National Basketball League (NBL) in the 1946-47 season, and three years later six NBL franchises, including the “Nats” merged with the Basketball Association of America (BAA) to form the National Basketball Association (NBA); and WHEREAS, While the team moved to Philadelphia and became the ‘76ers in 1963, the Syracuse Nationals enjoyed many successful seasons in Syracuse, playing against the Minneapolis Lakers in the NBA’s first championship series in 1950, reaching the NBA Finals in 1954, and winning the NBA Championship in 1955; and WHEREAS, There were many outstanding players on the Syracuse Nationals basketball team, several of whom made indelible marks on the history of basketball, and are present here today: Dolph Schayes, who was the first star of the Syracuse Nationals, garnering in his 13 years as a professional basketball player 5 league records and widely regarded as the first true “power forward”; and Earl Lloyd, who in 1950 became the first African-American to play in an NBA game, in 1955 with the Syracuse Nationals he became the first African-American to win an NBA championship, and later went on to distinguish himself in many coaching endeavors; and WHEREAS, It is an honor to recognize today the legacy of the Syracuse Nationals and remember their victorious 1955 NBA Championship.

Propos recueillis le 24 février 2014 en marge d’une conférence à USC. « It was like you had black kids from New York in the 1960s being coached by white men from Mississippi. The cultural disconnect was that drastic. France, because of its colonies, half the team is black. There was a serious disconnect between the players and the staff. When I was a rookie, we had 3 meetings: one to manage your money, one for security matters, one to handle lovers. All this was meant to protect the NBA brand, the corporate brand. We’re athletes, but we’re more than athletes. I would love to see these corporations consider athletes as individuals, just as they consider themselves.

The program was inducted on the strength of its history, impact on the game and continued success over a 34-year period. The Hall of Fame’s official ceremony took place Friday night and was televised exclusively on NBA TV. The broadcast began at 6:30 p.m. Eastern. The Flying Queens were presented for enshrinement by Luisa Harris Stewart, a 1992 inductee to the Hall, and Nancy Lieberman, a 1996 inductee. An ESPN special segment featuring the Queens also ran during the broadcast. The Queens joined an induction class that included Al Attles, Carl Braun, Chuck Cooper, Vlade Divac, Bill Fitch, Bobby Jones, Sidney Moncrief, Jack Sikma, Tennessee A&I, Teresa Weatherspoon and Paul Westphal. The Queens rosters from 1948-82 consisted of 187 women. The Queens were known for flying to all of their games, sponsored by Claude and Wilda Hutcherson who owned Hutcherson Flying Service. The Queens won a combined 830 games during that span, including a record 131 consecutive games, with 10 AAU national titles.
