My history lesson in basketball

Who invented the "alley-oop"?


Is it Michael Jordan? Dominique? Dr. J? No. No. No.


It started in an "Semi-Pro" A.B.A. game. Yes the N.B.A. and A.B.A. are still divided at that time. It first happened before the merger of these two basketball leagues. When the fans saw it, they were at a shock. Broadcasters did not know what happened or what it is called. The referees did not know if they were going to count the 2 points in. So who threw the alley and who put down the oop? it was Jackie Moon (a.k.a. Will Ferrell) of the Flint Michigan Tropics who threw the first alley and it was Clarence "Coffee Black" who threw down the first oop. Hahaha!

Of course by now you should know that I'm just kidding with you...LOL!
