1967–68 Chicago Bulls Season
The 1967–68 Chicago Bulls season was the second season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Draft picks Note: This is not an extensive list; it only covers the first and second rounds, and any other players drafted by the franchise that played at least one NBA game. Roster Regular season After that promising beginning the Bulls fell apart. During the 1967-68 NBA season the club traded Guy Rodgers, the steadiest player on the squad, to the Cincinnati Royals for Flynn Robinson and two future draft choices. Chicago lost its first nine games, slumping to 1–15 before climbing back to respectability. The Bulls went 28–38 the rest of the way but still finished 29–53. Even that record was better than those of the new expansion teams in Seattle and San Diego, so the Bulls still snuck into the playoffs, where they were drubbed by the Lakers in the division semifinals.

He later held several coaching and administrative positions before embarking on a thirty-three-year career as a television color commentator for the Chicago Bulls. Playing career High school Although Johnny Kerr's first passion was soccer, an eight-inch growth spurt during his senior year at Tilden Technical High School, and some friendly persuasion from basketball Head Coach Bill Postl and school principal Robert Lakemacher, Kerr turned his attention to basketball. The 6' 9" center soon led his school's basketball team to the 1950 Chicago Public League Championship. Kerr graduated mid-year from Tilden (January 1950) and was all set to attend Bradley in the fall, however, after a visit from Illini freshman Irv Bemoras, touting the benefits of playing for Harry Combes and ...

1967–68 Philadelphia 76ers Season
The 1967–68 season of the Philadelphia 76ers was their 15th season in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and their fifth season since moving from Syracuse (as well as their first season at their new home in South Philadelphia, the Spectrum). The 76ers finished the regular season with a record of 62–20, and for the third straight year had the best record in the entire NBA. In the playoffs, they eliminated the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, 4 games to 2. The series win proved costly, as Billy Cunningham, their sixth man, injured his non-shooting wrist and was out for the remainder of the playoffs. In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Sixers became the first team in NBA history to blow a 3–1 series lead as they lost to the Boston Celtics in 7 games. What was so damaging about this series loss was that Games 5 and 7 were at the Spectrum, and although Cunningham was not available, the team had the services of forward Johnny Green, a 4-time NBA Al ...
