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.

@Super70sSports Speaking of Dr J, he’s prominent in @abathrowbacks Soul Power on Amazon, 4 part series about the ABA. If you haven’t seen it, think you’d love it, great footage and interviews. Well worth your time.

If the NBA can change the courts for the in-season tournament, which I like, why not change the ball for a few games a year when the four #ABA teams play?

Matt Wiley@MWCoyote

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

Should the Denver Nuggets do more to promote and celebrate its ABA heritage? 🤔 @nuggets @DNVR_Nuggets

@abathrowbacks @Letterman @rBillSimmonsPod I really hope so, especially since Dave was born n raised in Indy & went to college at BALL State. Larry B. was also an ABAer in HOOSIERVILLE. Big Freddie Lewis fan growing up.

'76 Nuggets one of the most underrated great teams of that era. Statistically the best Nuggets team of all time in so many statistical categories.

It remains crazy to me that the NBA fails to acknowledge ABA championships.

Care to read about the '74&'76 Nets championship teams? How about the eight different arenas they played in? You can about all that and much, much more in- A History of the Nets: From Teaneck to Brooklyn.
