What is the American Basketball Association? Originally founded in 1967, the ABA believed in the principle of creating fan-friendly entertainment. The ABA played for 9 seasons until 1976, when the top 4 ABA franchises were merged into the National Basketball Association, as the Denver Nuggets, the Indiana Pacers, the New Jersey Nets, and the San Antonio Spurs. Julius Erving “Dr. J”, was the first super star of the ABA, followed by Rick Barry, George “Ice Man” Gervin, Connie Hawkins, Dan Issel, Bobby Jones, Moses Malone, David “Skywalker” Thompson, Hubie Brown, Larry Brown just to name a few…. The ABA laid the foundation for the NBA. The NBA continues to use us as a source for new players. The ABA originated the, now famous, red, white, and blue basketball, The Slam Dunk Contest, The Shot Clock and The 3-Point Shot. The ABA is responsible for, the now common, wideopen, flashy, offensive style of play. www.sflgold.com
