RE: How Basketball Was Invented by Dr. James Naismith
Great article! I only knew a little bit about James Naismith and the founding of basketball and this post just connected all of the dots beautifully. Thanks for the history!
Absolutely! Kinda crazy how this game and industry came about as a result of those circumstances! I thought about it afterwards and in a poetic kind of way, Michael Jordan is tied to the creation of the game (Naismith coached Phog Allen->Allen coached Dean Smith ->Smith coached Michael)
Right man I totally agree! Wow never thought about it like that before that is a really cool point - funny how things work out like that!
