The Blanton's just called next!... hoops-themed museum exhibit you'll visit, unveiling Naismith's "Original Rules of Basket Ball". The titular piece is a weathered, hand-revised 1891 document laying out the basis of the game, which apparently didn't include "negging", so who knows how those guys scored. The historical angle's supplemented by jaw-dropping photos culled from the NBA archives, edited to remove all players but the subject to spotlight the sheer athleticism of even the most fundamental moves. Like negging!
