I watched an NBA game from every decade

The NBA game has drastically changed over the past 70 years. I picked an NBA finals game from each decade going back to 1950 and compared and contrasted the overall style of play. Some of the players included in the video: Bill Russell, Bill Walton, Julius Erving, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Steph Curry. ______________________________ Twitter: Hoop Vision newsletter: Hoop Vision Store: ______________________________ Thumbnail by Nic Stelter.
