The Home of the Basketball Braves

I wanted to bring back the glory of Buffalo Braves basketball. In the corridors of what once stood as Buffalo's Memorial Auditorium, Van Miller called all the games on WGR 550. Some clips are available at the Staff Announcer website with various games played in Buffalo. It was a great time to go to the Aud both the NBA's Braves and NHL's Buffalo Sabres got to call "The Aud" their home in 1970. In the likeness of Bob McAdoo and Randy Smith, the Braves saw the likes of playoff losses all to the Boston Celtics in the mid 70s and ultimately left for San Diego. I've mentioned this in detail here before and it infuriates me to discuss it so I won't reiterate.
