High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1997 NBA Playoffs was the postseason tournament of the National Basketball Association's 1996-1997 season. The tournament concluded with the Eastern Conference champion Chicago Bulls winning the NBA championship by defeating the Western Conference champion Utah Jazz four games to two. This was the Bulls second championship in a row, and fifth overall. This was the first Western Conference championship for the Jazz in their 22-year history. The Miami Heat's run to the Eastern Conference Finals marked the farthest the franchise had reached in the playoffs up to that point; they would not return to the East Finals until 2005, but would win the NBA Championship in 2006. The Minnesota Timberwolves made their playoff debut after failing to win more than 30 games in any of their first seven seasons. For them, it was also the first of seven consecutive seasons in which they would make the playoffs only to lose in the opening round.
