Basketball is basically a game were it is two different teams of five players on a rectangular court. In the very beginning the color of the basketball was brown, but later it was changed into a brighter color, that is now orange. The first basketball game took place in 1982, where the court was half the size of today’s courts, and only one point was scared during the match. The NBA was founded in 1949, after the combination of the NBC and the BAA (basketball association of America). Basketball was first played by a soccer ball until it was changed in 1929. Michael Jordan is considered one of the best basketball players around the world. The record score of 5,987 made him a legend in the world of basketball. The reason why a backboard was added is because the audience in the balcony used to interfere in the game by handling the ball. In 1967, slam dunks were considered illegal; nine years later it was legalized again. The first hoop was like with a bottom and every time a team scores, the referee would dim a ladder to get the ball. Women’s basketball began in 1892, and was modified to fit women. The game was made an official Olympic game in berlin Germany, 1936. James Naismith a teacher at a YMCA in Springfield, Massachusetts, is created with inventing basketball in 1891. Michael Jordan who retired in January 1999 but returned to the league in 2001, has scored more points (5,987) in the playoffs than any other player. The Chicago Bulls have won all six MBA finals I which they’ve appeared.
