Buffalo Braves

There are tons of things that have happened in Buffalo, both good and bad. Sometimes some of those decisions weren't so good decisions. However sometimes, they were flat out bad ideas.

The 716 is booming and can totally support a professional basketball team

Maybe its time for us to move on from hockey and embrace basketball again

Maybe it's time for the NBA to make its return to Buffalo

Back in the day, Buffalo used to have a professional basketball team. This year, you're going to have a chance to see them honored in the NBA.

Buffalo Braves jerseys will make a return to the NBA this season. The Los Angeles Clippers announced the throwback jersey to honor its Buffalo history this season.

Years ago Buffalo was a big basketball town. We even had our own NBA franchise called the Buffalo Braves. My uncle had season tickets for the Braves and he took me to quite a few games at Buffalo's Memorial Auditorium. Ever since the Buffalo Braves left town in 1976, my interest in the NBA fell right off...

Buffalo has had some of the greatest sports memories in recent history. Who can forget the incredible come back game between the Bills led by Frank Riech and the Houston Oilers. Unfortunately most of our memories involving sports in Western New York are not something we care to remember...

If you remember the Buffalo Braves, then you remember the sadness in Buffalo when they left town.  Ernie DiGregorio, Bob McAdoo and Randy Smith all lived in my neighborhood.  We saw these people on the court and off the court.
