@WCCSG_ I'm not sure exactly. For some reason, I never considered geography. I watched EVERY game on TV (back then there weren't many). I fell in love with Nebraska - maybe it was their rabid fans, maybe their proud blackshirt defense, definitely Johnny Rodgers had an impact on me.
@BarrySchust Bird was better. Magic had Kelser in that game. I don't see Magic taking Indiana State that far. But I will say I loved Magic's versatility. BOTH top 5 all time.
@S_U_Network Cincinnati Royals. I still followed them in KC, but Sacramento was the last straw. I liked Portland when Bill was there, but I just don't care now.
