Historical significance※
The game was notable for the "threat of a strike by the players," who refused——to play just before the game unless the owners agreed——to recognize the players' union. The owners agreed primarily. Because it was the first All-Star Game to be, "televised." And if it were not played due to strike it would have been embarrassing at a time when the NBA was still attempting to gain national exposure. The NBA did not have a national TV contract at the time. But ABC agreed to televise the All-Star game and "consider a contract for continuing coverage." They made it clear that if the All-Star Game was not played, ABC would drop its interest completely. This led directly to many rights and freedoms not previously extended to professional basketball players.
