&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nba-t19117&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;National Basketball Association&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; celebrates its &lt;strong&gt;75th anniversary&lt;/strong&gt; this &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-schedule-2021-22-find-here-the-complete-fixture-for-the-nba-2021-22-season-20211018-0008.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;season&lt;/a&gt;. To honor its fruitful history, the league decided to select the &lt;strong&gt;75 best players of all time&lt;/strong&gt;, a list that was revealed recently.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;While the likes of &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/michael-jordan-t85627&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Michael Jordan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/lebron-james-t92259&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;LeBron James&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/stephen-curry-t132201&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stephen Curry&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; obviously had their spots secured, &lt;strong&gt;some big-name players and fan favorites were snubbed&lt;/strong&gt;. This usually happens whenever you make a shortlist, no matter the topic we're talking about.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Of course, some people were unhappy with some selections and seeing a number of historic players &lt;strong&gt;being left out&lt;/strong&gt; at the expense of other names. Let's take a look at some of the snubs of the NBA 75th anniversary team.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item second&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;NBA 75th anniversary list: Biggest snubs&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;To be fair, it's hard to make such a shortlist &lt;strong&gt;when the league has seen so many talented superstars&lt;/strong&gt;. But it's also true that there are &lt;strong&gt;some names who should have never&amp;nbsp;been omitted&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The biggest snubs of the NBA 75th anniversary team might be &lt;strong&gt;Vince Carter&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Dwight Howard&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Tony Parker&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Tracy McGrady&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nba/argentinian-players-in-the-nba-from-manu-ginobili-to-gabriel-deck-complete-list-20210408-0020.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Manu Ginobili&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nba/penny-hardaway-chooses-michael-jordan-ahead-of-lebron-james-goat-20210402-0008.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Penny Hardaway&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Chris Bosh&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/kyrie-irving-t159843&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kyrie Irving&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pau Gasol&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;But the list &lt;strong&gt;could continue&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Additionally, &lt;strong&gt;Derrick Rose&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Nikola Jokic&lt;/strong&gt; are the only two players who have won the &lt;strong&gt;MVP&lt;/strong&gt; award and were not included on the list. So, it's understandable why fans will complain about some selections.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

NBA 75th anniversary team: Dwight Horward, Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady among the snubs

NBA: Leandro Bolmaro, Gabriel Deck, and all the Argentines who played in the league

&lt;p&gt;Believe it or not, &lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/diego-maradona-t312&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Diego Maradona&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; was an avid &lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NBA&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; fan and his fanaticism for basketball dates from long before we could even imagine. At the time his career was finishing, Diego was seeing the NBA and learning more about the sports, even becoming a supporter of one team.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Just like people know about him and what he did during his life, Diego knew a lot about the NBA, looking up to Michael Jordan and his Chicago Bulls while he became a fan of another franchise in the association.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Last year, during an interview, Diego revealed a big coincidence regarding &lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/emanuel-ginobili-t138313&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Manu Ginobili&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and his NBA team. Maradona revealed he was a fan of the &lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/san-antonio-spurs-t100707&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;San Antonio Spurs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; even before his fellow countryman landed in the team in 2003.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;div class=&quot;ck-twitter&quot; id=&quot;twitter-43&quot; style=&quot;display: inline-block;&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;blockquote class=&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;&gt; 
   &lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;Muy triste! Gracias Diego por tan lindos momentos!&lt;br&gt; Abrazo enorme para toda su familia y para un pueblo que lo am&oacute; profundamente. &lt;a href=&quot;https://t.co/QC0s8xbzHR&quot;&gt;pic.twitter.com/QC0s8xbzHR&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &mdash; Manu Ginobili (@manuginobili) 
   &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/manuginobili/status/1331648455459135492?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;November 25, 2020&lt;/a&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;Diego Maradona revealed the San Antonio Spurs were his favorite NBA team&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Maradona explained in an interview with &ldquo;L&iacute;bero&rdquo; that he was a San Antonio Spurs fan long before Manu arrived in the city from Italy. For Diego, it was Tim Duncan and David Robinson who made them a fan of the 5-time NBA champions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&ldquo;I was a Spurs supporter before Manu (Ginobili) came; when the Twin Towers were there, Tim Duncan and the admiral David Robinson,&rdquo; Diego said.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Duncan and Robinson won two titles together, creating one of the best associations in the league at the time. When Manu landed in Texas, he won four championships with the team, becoming part of the best Big 3s in NBA history alongside Tim Duncan and Tony Parker.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Ginobili developed a great relationship with Maradona and his message after the latter&rsquo;s death sums up how much Diego meant for him and the rest of the Argentine people. Diego left a huge mark on the world, something that will never change.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
