On January 6th, 1951, the Indianapolis Olympians and Rochester Royals met in Edgerton Park Arena for a regular season game.<\/p>\n<p>What happened next resulted in one of the most boring basketball games in the history of the world.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a lot of hyperbolic words, but they&#8217;re all true.<\/p>\n<p>A typical NBA game is set to last 48 minutes, but this was a marathon. The game went on to go 78 minutes, but it was not at all interesting.<\/p>\n<h2>The longest NBA game had six overtimes.<\/h2>\n<p>Six.<\/p>\n<p>Overtimes.<\/p>\n<p>However, there was no excitement. The final score of the game was 75-73. Remember this was four seasons before the shot clock came into play. The teams were holding the ball as long as possible before trying to score.<\/p>\n<p>Think about how crazy that is!<\/p>\n<p>The two teams were playing chess pretty much the whole time after overtime. They didn&#8217;t try to attack the basket, they tried to hold out and force a mistake off the ball.<\/p>\n<p>It must have been miserable to watch if you were there.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d absolutely hate being at that game.<\/p>\n<h2>Think about all the other things someone could&#8217;ve done in that amount of time. The longest game in NBA history is the reason why Netflix was invented.<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s the reason why people justify the amount of television time that golf gets.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s why the Hindenburg was considered top entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>IT&#8217;S THE WORST GAME EVER.<\/p>\n<p>For the Royals, it was a loss en route to finishing second in the Western Division, and ultimately beating the New York Knickerbockers in the Finals.<\/p>\n<p>The Olympians, the winners of the marathon turtle race, went on to finish fourth in the division. They got bounced in the semifinals by the Minneapolis Lakers and star center <a href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/m\/mikange01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">George Mikan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Let me tell ya&#8230; at first, I was pumped to have my birthday the same <a href=\"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/nba-2k22-cover-and-release-date-have-arrived\/\">date as the longest game in NBA<\/a> history.<\/p>\n<p>Then I saw how the game went down.<\/p>\n<p>Then I got sad.<\/p>\n<p>While my mom was going into labor, my dad ran down to the hospital vending machine to get a snack. After a while, he chose Fritos. When he came back to the room, my mom berated him for eating Fritos while she was in labor.<\/p>\n<p>That two minute exchange was absolutely more exciting than the 78-minute snore fest that happened at the Edgerton Park Arena in 1951. Possibly the saddest, but definitely the longest game in NBA history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Content:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/longest-mlb-game-in-history\/\"> Longest MLB Game In History<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Longest Game in NFL History<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The longest NBA game in history had 6 overtimes and took 78 minutes of game-time.
