The Toronto Huskies, Pittsburgh Ironmen, Detroit Falcons, and Clevland Rebels left after the first season of 1946-47. The Providence Stemrollers stayed for three seasons. The St. Louis Bombers and the Chicago Stags both were there for four seasons. The Washington Capitols stayed for five seasons. The Philadelphia Warriors were in for the first 16 seasons until changing to San Fransisco for nine years and Golden State from 1971-72 to present. The Boston Celtics and the New York Knickerbockers are the only teams who have been in the NBA from the beginning to present.
