(Reuters) - Profile of the Cleveland Cavaliers, who won the National Basketball Association championship on Sunday.
* NBA titles: One (2016)
* The franchise joined the National Basketball Association in 1970 as an expansion team along with the Buffalo Braves and Portland Trail Blazers.
* The NBA instituted what is commonly known as the "Stepien Rule," due to Ted Stepien's propensity for trading away high draft picks during a disastrous three-year tenure as owner of the Cavaliers in the early 1980s
* Cavaliers are the team that were on the wrong end of "The Shot," the name of a wildly famous series-winning basket hit by Michael Jordan in the 1989 Eastern Conference quarter-finals that is one of the most replayed NBA plays in history.
