High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1973 NBA Playoffs was the postseason tournament of the National Basketball Association's 1972-1973 season. The tournament concluded with the Eastern Conference champion New York Knicks defeating the Western Conference champion Los Angeles Lakers, four games to one in the NBA Finals. The Knicks won their second NBA championship. New York's Willis Reed became the first player to win the NBA Finals MVP twice, in the fifth year of the award's existence. The playoff format was modified, as only the divisional champions qualified automatically; two wild-cards were also added from each conference. Once qualification was determined, the four qualifiers were seeded 1-2-3-4 based entirely on record; divisional position no longer mattered. The #1 seed then played #4, and #2 played #3. Because of this new format, New York, the Atlantic Division runner-up, had the home-court advantage versus the Baltimore Bullets, the Central Division champion, since the Knicks had the better regular-season record.
