1970's NBAI listened to Bob Blackburn on a little transistor radio beside my pillow to fall asleep. I became a huge Knicks fan (who?) with Willis Reed, Clyde Frazier, Pearl, Bradley and DeBusschere, with Phil Jackson off the bench

1970's NBA80's was better basketball but the 70's was more interesting because the flow of the game changed to above the basket for the first time because of the new more wide open and athletic style of the then new ABA.

But 1967 I became a fan because of the Sonics. Also listened to Bob Blackburn. He taught Seattle the pro game
The 76 Warriors were the original great Bay Area champion. Walton in 77
I remember those Knick teams too. And the 72 Lakers finally getting a ring

Mostly for the diverse stars and before Jordan seemed to overshadow everyone. Though the lions share of games I watched was in the 90's.
Boston
LA
Houston
Philadelphia
Detroit
Blazers
All contenders and some solid other teams as well.
We? really were blessed in Seattle. I believe the sonics were at least 500 or above and in playoff contention from like 88 to 03. -
1970's NBA
That was an amazing season, and the knicks were freaking deadly from the outside… every one of those guys were nails at the baseline and it was cool to watch all 5 guys line up in an array outside and pass it around before throwing it up from downtown. Changed the game because it opened the lane in a new way and was the most interesting finals from that standpoint that I had ever seen. Origins of the rotating triangle offense.Fishpo31 said:I listened to Bob Blackburn on a little transistor radio beside my pillow to fall asleep.

I was extremely young but I remember Bobby Dandridge running off our court at the buzzer with a big smile and the pain my dad was inRaceBannon said:
Damn your Bulletswhlinder said:It is a super important point that the analytics optimized version of the game (today) to achieve the desired outcome (winning) is absolutely not the aesthetically optimized version of the game to achieve entertainment.
I like the late 80s and early 90s best, probably because of when I grew up. The Dream Team was peak NBA. Round ball Rock.
Someday the Bullets will win 50 games again.
Game 7 at the Kingdome. Still hurts -

While that trade kinda sucked, it was the right move to make.DerekJohnson said:
