    Nat Holman, Joe Lapchick, Dutch Dehnert... those Original Celtics teams had so many pioneers and innovators, I wish there was more footage of them playing.

    Who was the Jordan of the 20s and 30s? What was the league even? The ABL?

    or how about basketball's first decade, the 1890s? Naismith wasn't a player was he?

    Al Cooper. He played for the Trentons. Led the NBL in scoring for the 1898-99 season with 8.8 points per game. They won the championship after going 18-2.
