Liga Nacional de Básquetbol
Encyclopedia
The Liga Nacional de Básquet (abbreviated LNB, and literally in English "National Basketball League") is the top level of the Argentine
basketball
league system. The league is controlled by the Basketball Clubs' Association (in Spanish: Asociación de Clubes de Básquetbol). The LNB's predecessor is the defunct Campeonato Argentino de Clubes, organized by the Argentine Basketball Federation
.
The league was created through the efforts of coach León Najnudel
and sports journalist Osvaldo Orcasitas in the 1980s to make Argentine basketball more competitive through the merging of the many existing local leagues. It is designed like the NBA, with regular season, all-star game
, and playoffs. However, unlike the NBA, the LNB has promotion and relegation
with the Torneo Nacional de Ascenso (TNA), the league immediately below.
A tribute to Najnudel's vision is the string of successes of the Argentine national basketball team, culminating with the team's Olympic gold medal won at the 2004 Summer Olympics, and the international careers of many players who started in the league.
1.The 1984 edition was a transitional tournament from the Campeonato Argentino de Clubes to the Liga Nacional de Básquet. Strictly speaking, Deportivo San Andrés was the last champion of the Campeonato Argentino, but the governing body of the LNB recognizes them as the first champion of the league.
