  • On January 20, 1970, the National Basketball
    1 Season 1: 1970-1971 In the beginning... n January 20, 1970, the National Basketball Association voted to expand. Along with Port- land and Cleveland, an NBA franchise was Oawarded to a group of investors headed by Phillip Ryan and Peter Crotty for Buffalo. The age of sports expansion had been well under way since the late 1960s. The National Hockey League, for example, had doubled the number of its franchises from six to 12 in one grand move. The NBA had expanded to Seattle and San Diego in 1967; and to Milwaukee and Phoenix a year later. While some contended that the talent pool wasn’t there to support so many new teams, the NBA was eager for new markets in large part because it was at war with the rival Ameri- can Basketball Association. The ABA had been around since 1967 and was developing a strong following in some parts of the country. The ABA, with its distinctive red, white and blue ball, emphasized slam dunks and high scoring. The rival league was driving up player salaries and many owners in the older NBA were becoming increasingly concerned about the bottom-line. New teams to the NBA paid escalating franchise fees. In the case of the new kids on the block – Portland, Cleveland and Buf- falo – the entry fee was $3.7 million. Days after the announcement was made, it be- came apparent that the Buffalo group didn’t have deep The new Buffalo franchise unveils its nickname the Braves, selected enough pockets to operate a team at the most expensive from over 14,000 entries in a “Name the team” contest.
