In 1891, James Naismith had just fourteen days to invent an indoor game capable of curtailing his rowdy YMCA members. In a moment of inspiration, he decided to incorporate his favorite elements of the soccer, rugby, and lacrosse to create the game of basketball. Originally established in 1946 as the Basketball Association of America, the NBA formally introduced itself, along with seventeen other franchises in 1949. Since then, the NBA has produced some of the most memorable moments in professional sports history and given us household names like Magic, Michael, Kobe, and LeBron. Our new League History poster chronicles every active franchise’s trajectory from 1947 to 2011, complete with data-driven charts, fun graphics, and impressive design. Impress your friends and follow your team by using this poster as a reference for your growing knowledge of the NBA’s awesome history.

    "My son is a budding basketball star who loves to watch today's elite players like Dwight Howard and Kevin Durant dominate the game. I bought this poster as a tool to help him study the history of the league and the teams and players that once ruled the court! Now we can both talk about the Boston teams from the '60's."
