What was the most significant rule from the ABA that the NBA adopted?
Without a doubt, the three point shot.
Was there always a 3 point line in basketball?
The three point line was introduced because people believed a shot made at a far distance should be worth more points than a layup. Thus, the 3 point line was introduced.The 3 point shot was introduced by the upstart ABL in 1961 (the league only survived a couple of years) and was brought back by the ABA in 1971 (along with the 30 second shot clock and the dunk) and adopted by the NBA after they merged in 1979-80. The NCAA allowed the Southeast Conference to experiment with 3-pointers in 1980-81 and the rest of the College conferences followed suit within the next two seasons.Why_was_basketball's_three-point_line_introduced
What color are the balls in the 3 point shootout?
Well there are are 5 racks with 5 balls on each. The first five balls are normal NBA ones and the last one is an ABA ball. I think the ABA one is red, white and blue. The normal balls are worth 1 point each and the the ABA one is worth 2 points. Overall you can get a score out of 30.
When was 3 point shot invented?
Chronologically, Herman Sayger was the inventor. Depending on your perspective, the three-point line was developed/introduced several times in the course of basketball's history. The list of possible "inventors" are included below: # Herman Sayger (1933) # Howard Hobson (1945) # Al Grenert (1950s) # American Basketball League (1961) # Eddie Rios Mellado (1962) # ABA (1968) For a more in-depth answer, you can read Interbasket's article on Who Invented the 3-Point Line (check out the reference/link below)
