OT - Case for the 12 Foot Basket

Since the season is winding down and there seems to be fewer posts.......

SI Vault - 1967 Article on raising the baskets to 12 Feet. Arguments been made before. Still hold today?

A bit long, but a good read IMO with dates and names some may find interesting.

Raised baskets in Tennessee test game made rebounding - 12.04.67 - SI Vault

And yes, it does reference Mr. Naismith and peach baskets!
