This poll isn’t over yet. But we are talking high level ABA knowledge to explain why the 72 Pacers were better than the 73 Pacers. Why were they??

Not gonna debate this too hard but several Pacer and Sonics team photos from the 70s can make a good argument, including these two:
#TBThursday to 1975 and the ABA's Spirits of St. Louis - still the greatest team photo in history. Change my mind. #TeamPhoto #ABA

@abathrowbacks ABA Denver Nuggets David Thompson one of the Greats 👍👍 “That’s the only way you can recover,” Thompson said. “First you have to forgive yourself.”
ABA guy
David “Skywalker” Thompson, perhaps the most phenomenal basketball player of the 70s that nobody ever talks about. Took down the Wooden and Walton UCLA juggernaut, scored 73 in an NBA game. Top 10 all-time dunk artist. Put respect on his name.
After an eight-year battle with the NBA, @droppingdimes67 earlier this year convinced the league to give recognition payments to former ABA players. @DanaBenbow gets reaction: 'Yes, it kind of is a Christmas miracle.' bit.ly/3W9CFNg
@droppingdimes67 convinced the NBA to give recognition payments to former ABA players. This is incredible, if it weren't for the ABA we wouldn't have the modern NBA. Read any autobiography from former players & coaches, they talk so much about the ABA's impact & influence.
JUST AMAZING. The ABA basically created the modern fast-break, fancy dunks, and thee point line before they merged with the NBA. 45 years later they are finally being paid:
