That '70s show: The Buffalo Braves

What's that, kids? You say that Dad hasn't told you much about the days when Buffalo had an NBA team, the Braves, doing battle in Memorial Auditorium?

Check it out for yourself. Below is footage from a 1975 playoff game between the Braves and the Washington Bullets. Brent Musburger and Oscar Robertson are the announcers. The hairstyles and uniforms are all vintage.
