I don’t know much about all these players but I respect them because they made the game what it is today.

50's players all had their own unique styles and array of shots that slowly got lost over time when the jump shot took over most players shots by the late 60's. The last guys to do a set shot were Dolph Schayes and Richie Guerin.

Watch Sam Perkins sometime. When he changed his game to 3-point shooting, he rarely left the floor.

I don’t know if you even check your comments anymore. I just found a reel entitled “Panasonic Presents NBA 25 Years-The NBA Story” by Winik Films. I’m sure it’s ruined by now, but ours is 1-1/2 hours. Did you cut yours down? I’m so curious what was on our reel and how you got yours! I also have old time reels for The “NBA 1970 Championship Playoffs” and “NBA 1969 It’s Greatest Year.” Who knows if those are ruined too!! Thanks for posting this so I can now understand a little bit about what we have/had.

6:34 Danny Biasone of the Syracuse Nats came up with the shot clock... the shot clock was tailor made for THEM, not the Celtics. The same year the shot clock was introduced the Nats won their title. I love how they just completely glossed over that. Can't speak on anyone other than the Celtics and Lakers during that era I guess.
