Milwaukee Bucks @ Kansas City Kings 1/24/85 WVTV Channel 18 Part 1 

The quality of this game is incredible for 1985. Great upload!

KCMO Wish we still had a basketball team

Unbelievable quality... wow

45:45 Kevin Harlan voice of the Kansas City Kings Later in the year, the Kings move to Sacramento and Harlan becomes voice of the Kansas City Chiefs

grew up near st. louis, and they used to televise some kc king's games....don't remember the channel, but i remember phil ford being my favorite player.

Great action and love the commercials!

The Milwaukee Bucks nowadays are easily one of their best teams. With only the championship team of 1970 being equal to or better. However this team or the Bucks in the 80's had some exciting teams as well. Terry Cummings was a phenomenal player. Sidney Moncrief was another great player. Craig Hodges or Mister 3-pointer was at times a incredible sharpshooter. Alton Lister was a decent big man. But nothing spectacular. I remember watching this team on WVTV Channel-18, back in the day. I was born(1967), and raised in Milwaukee. I spent 30-35 years there. Going to see the Bucks at the Mecca Arena and the Brewers at Milwaukee County🏟Stadium🏟, were some of the best memories I had back then. The 41-Twin Drive-in was another great place to go for fun and excitement. Plus on the way there was a really 😎🆒️🆒️😎 cool place for kids. The Go-Kart track! They also had a massive slide, like you'd see at a State Fair, or an Amusement Park with all of the hills. It was rainbow colored, pretty tall, and it was okay I guess. They also had these unique "swings" that you yourself had to operate from the inside of the caged swing. They'd give you a starting push then they'd step aside and it was then up to you to work it. Milwaukee had some really unique and oddly entertaining places. It was a really fun place to grow up. I loved it! But the Bucks and especially the Brewers were my favorite part of my childhood during the 70's and early 80's. It was a much simpler time, a far safer time, and everything just seemed more comfortable, peaceful, and FUN!

Cummings had that high release shot almost behind his head, that was nearly impossible to block

No wonder why the Kings moved to Sacramento. No fans in the stands. No fan support in Kansas City whatsoever.

Joe Axelson, wow this bring me back. KC Kings on the way out.

Love the commercials also. I wasn't born yet so it's nice seeing those as well

Heavy Ps A lot of stellar teams played for Don Nelson

Both the Brewers and Bucks were WVTV Channel 18 and WGCV Channel 24 and on radio on 620AM And now 103.3 WMTJ

Interesting. The Kansas City Kings are the team Bernard King blew his knee out, in the arena he got hurt, hosting the Milwaukee Bucks, the team Bernard began his comeback against.

Very rare. Last few months in KC. What really happened?? As a kid growing up in Memphis in the late 70's-early 80's, the Kings were very competitive.

Bring our Kings back @PatrickMahomes

This is amazing. Any other complete games?

When they had the Kansas City Kings in the 1980s,was this before they eventually became the Sacramento Kings?

Excellent footage. Historic record.

This is a great upload. Hope you put up some more from that collection of tapes you bought.

KANSAS CITY KINGS FOR KEMPER ARENA

This is outstanding! Thank you for sharing. Would love to see many more. Do you have a list of your collection? Again, thanks. Wow.

I just turned 11 3 weeks before this game came on. I watched all this. Paul Pressey original point forward. Damn I wish I could be 11 again.

One excellent change to see the last matchs before to move to Sacramento.

It would be an important point to solve why a team with this amazing crew (especially in the backcourt), with deep bench and one of the best coaches ever, how they weren’t be able to achieve at least a final in this decade.

Man this makes me so annoyed. I’ve been a nba fan for years and the Midwest is underrepresented fr. All we got is the thunder and they aren’t very exciting

Kings playing 13 seasons in Kansas City before moving to Sacramento, haven't been in the finals since Rochester days.

Who played the organ for the Kings at Kemper Arena?

NBA needs to expand to 32. I nominate the Sonics and a team from Missouri

This is Gold!

Good game and the best Bucks uniforms ever!

5 traveling calls, 2 charging calls, 2 actual jump balls, and shorts shorter than they ever should have been - they don't make games like they used to.

Laselle Thompson was either gay or very feminine

1:02:00 The voice of the late Pat Summerall. R.I.P

This is so cool. seeing what watching a Bucks game was like tv in the 80’s. Approximately 10 years before I was born

Take this bucks team into todays east, bucks going to finals

Jon Mcglocklin been commentating Bucks basketball for years

It was a classic after Kings played their final year in Kansas City and migrated to Sacramento now as Sacramento Kings.

Does anyone know why Eddie Doucette left the Bucks (seemingly at the last minute) for this unknown Bill Berg? Berg was here for 2 years ('84-'86), ironically our current TV guy (Jim Paschke's predessor). BTW, nice to hear former arena PA guy, Jack Gallo doing the voiceovers.

Wasn't the same without Eddie Doucette calling the games 😢 😕

I’m falling in love with the Bucks logo.

8.8% interest on a Datsun? Jesus....

The Kings last year in KC. KC didn't support them. They supported soccer team, the Comets instead, who would play to packed arena most nights.

Harden plays better defense than the king's starting 5
