The Buffalo Germans were the original powerhouse team in basketball history. They started out as 12- and 13-year-old German immigrants from a YMCA in Buffalo, New York. They later won the Olympic Tournament in 1904 as grown men. They were miles ahead of other teams. But things changed as the original players started to retire and were replaced by younger players.
