All ABA Finals were in best-of-seven format and were contested between the winners of the Eastern Division and the Western Division finals. The only teams to win the championship more than once were the Indiana Pacers and the New York Nets. The Indiana Pacers initially played in the ABA Finals in 1969, which they lost to the Oakland Oaks, but they won the championship the next year against the Los Angeles Stars. They won in the ABA Finals again in 1972, their first after moving to the Western Division, against the New York Nets and won their final ABA championship against the Kentucky Colonels in 1973. The New York Nets won their first championship in 1974 against the Utah Stars, and their second against the Denver Nuggets in 1976.

After the ABA's first year (1967-68), the troubled New Jersey Americans franchise moved to Long Island and became the New York Nets.

The 1975–76 season would be the ABA’s last, and the Nets made it count. Julius Erving, now at the height of his powers, averaged over 29 points per game and won his third league MVP award.

The Nets finished with a 55–29 record and once again battled through the playoffs, defeating the San Antonio Spurs in the semifinals and the Denver Nuggets in a six-game Finals series.

Erving was brilliant, averaging 37.7 points in the Finals, and once again took home Playoffs MVP honors. It was the second ABA title for the Nets—and the last ABA championship ever awarded.
