∙ 13y agoThe game of Basketball is completely different. First of all, dribbling was introduced into the game. Many different rules have entered as well, including the three second violation, palming the ball, and traveling. The three point shot was introduced and changed the game dramatically.

Back in the day, dunking was considered as "taboo" and no one dunked.
