Highlights of the 1972 ABA vs NBA all-stars. Lotta legends in one game



dat Rick Barry free throw

Spoiler

Game recording exists in only first 3 quarters, but in 4th quarter Dr. J allegedly does an in-game free throw line dunk that lit the crowd up. Was the inspiration behind Dr. Js dunk contest free throw dunk a few years later

Nate Thurmond says hed take Baylor, Barry, and Bird over any other small forward. IMO Dr. J and Bron are up with the likes of them too but if Thurmond is that confident in Barry than he must be pretty good. Im gonna do a Barry mix after I finish my Connie Hawkins mix

Watched an interview recently where some peeps asked Oscar if he thought Wilt could play in the NBA today and Big O bout blew his top... said the man avgd 50 and 27 and u people dumb enough to ask if he could merely play today? Look like he was about to kill some1 - said that kinda sh*t was a damn insult. Sometimes im how unaware people are about how elite basketball was before Magic and Bird played but then again I got lots of footage (that lately im tryna share) - but based on what people say today ud think the game back then was played by cave men and it dont line up with the footage one bit... U got Dr. J and Kareem goin h2h against guys like Wilt Havlieck and Oscar... did these guys who played in both eras ever try 2 say "u know back b4 I played with Jordan and Magic all them 60s cats weren't as good..." do they look like they doin any better vs this old 60s talent competition vs when they played vs the young up and coming 90's players in the 80s? heeeeeell naw. yall who wonder if oldschool players could play today think about that for a minute

I was just thinking along this line when I was watching some elgin baylor highlights, dude reminds me of a smaller bron on how he attacked the rim and finished so well. But yeah, these dudes, the great ones at least were legit and could play in any era. Only difference i see is the game has better ball handling skill and speed compared to then. But those dudes played with a higher basketball IQ to me and were much better passers. Especially the big men who were way more skilled than dudes now.

Who was this Archie Clark niqqa in that game?

Dude had some serious street ball in him. HE STAYED trying to cross niqqas up.

Young Dr. Jay no doubt brought the Rucker with him to that game.
