Soul Power & the ABA
@abathrowbacks
Helping to rewrite and preserve the legendary history of the American Basketball Association



Today, 50 years ago in 1976, the Nets came back to defeat the Nuggets to win their second ABA championship and the final one for the ABA. It was the swan song for Dr. J in the ABA along with other legends including David Thompson, Ralph Simpson, Dan Issel, and Brian Taylor.



When the four remaining #ABA teams play each other they should use a red, white and blue ball in the regular season to honor the league. #nba @nuggets @Pacers @spurs @BrooklynNets @NBATV
