In those days they also had double-headers. 4 different teams. Once a year there was an all east DH. Nats, Knicks, Celtics, Warriors. Every 3rd year it would be Nats-Knicks, Celtics-Warriors -- Wilt vs. Bill Russell. I remember being at one such DH sitting about half way up behind one of the baskets when Wilt went up to dunk and Russell blocked it. I still remember it. In those days, the Nats were the basketball in town. No one paid attention to SU basketball. At all. Football was king on campus. [/QUOTE]
