Eastern Basketball League (EBL)
1914-15 EBL Season Overview
The major disappointment to an otherwise successful Eastern Basketball League season was the impasse that brought the playoff between Camden and Reading to a halt without the championship being settled. After exchanging home court victories, Reading refused to play anymore because of a dispute over the allotment of tickets to the scheduled third and deciding game of the series. The situation highlighted an intrinsic weakness of professional leagues of this era, when league officials possessed little real authority over members. Too often arrangements of schedules and dates were left in the hands of the individual clubs, often with disastrous results.
