ABA (basketball) question

Factual Questions
1

Somebody has probably asked this before, but I couldn’t find it when I did my search, so I’m asking it now.

The American Basketball Association (ABA) had a weird foul rule - something about six fouls, and some sort of special penalty. I remember that much, but I don’t remember what it was exactly. Anybody know?

Also, I heard there was a good history of the ABA put out six or seven years ago, does anyone know what it is (was)?

The good book to find is “Loose Balls” by Terry Pluto.

What was the ABA’s three-to-make-two foul shot rule, then? Sort of a one-and-one for slow learners?

you had 3 trys two make 2 freethrows on a shooting violation. If you missed all 3 it was called a “hat trick”
