The complete IGNORANCE of how the game was played is mind boggling to me.

Oscar Robertson talked about it in his interview with Chris Webber.

They could go behind the back and dribble between the legs but the rules were so strict that they had to bounce the ball with an open palm and even a basic crossover was sometimes called a travel/carry.

Players now could NOT dribble the way they wanted to back then because it was literally illegal to do so. How come people don’t know this?

You can literally just research this stuff.

There’s footage of Wilt with the Harlem Globetrotters doing no look passed and kids might think “Oh Magic Johnson invented that”

How much disrespect of the old generation is based off of pure ignorance of how the rules affected them?
