Ray Allen as of 2007-2008

Small forward The small forward, or, colloquially, "the three", is one of the five positions in a regulation basketball game. Small forwards are typically somewhat shorter, quicker, and leaner than power forwards and centers, but on occasion are just as tall. Perhaps "small" forward is a misnomer, then, as some of the top players at the position in today's NBA are anything but "small": for example, Rashard Lewis of the Seattle SuperSonics, Tim Thomas of the Chicago Bulls, and Hedo Turkoglu of the Orlando Magic all stand 6'10". Those players are usually exceptions, though, as most small forwards usually range between 6'5" and 6'11" (1.96

The game of basketball is completely different. First of all, dribbling was introduced into the game. Many different rules have entered as well, including the three second violation, palming the ball, and traveling. The three point shot was introduced and changed the game dramatically. The 24 second shot clock was introduced, forcing players to shoot after a certain amount of time. Dunking is another big type of shot introduced. Back in the day, dunking was considered as "taboo" and no one dunked.

Here's a snip from an online article by Douglas Stark... "The setting was Trenton, the thriving capital city of New Jersey. The date was November 7, 1896. The place was Masonic Temple, a multi-purpose building in downtown Trenton. The event was a basketball game between the Trenton Basketball Team and the Brooklyn YMCA. The significance was that the game "presumably" represented the first professional contest in which the players were paid to play." Read the rest: http://www.hoophall.com/history/trenton_feature.htm

After basketball, Wilt Chamberlain played volleyball.

The round hoop is made of steel, the netting is a woven nylon fiber. The first basket for basketball was literally a basket. A peach basket to be specific. A ladder was used to retrieve the ball after a shot was made. Later a pole was utilized to poke the ball back out.

No these are different teams. They play a very similar style of "entertainment game", even with the same style/color of ball. But different teams and no direct connection with each other.
