Old Time Basketball

Back in the olden days NBA basketball was a little bit different. The outfits were different and some of the rules were different.

In the 1950s to about the mid 80s everyone in the NBA wore really short shorts. Now a days the players wear pretty long shorts. Also back then they didnt wear head bands or any other kind of accesory. In the 40s when the NBA just started every player used to wear kneepads.

Before the mid 1700s the floor did not have a three point line. Which meant there wasnt such thing as a three pointer. Also back in the 50s and 60s there were almost no black players in the NBA. Now it is full of African Americans.
