This is the logo of the American Basketball Association’s Carolina Cougars, who played in the league from 1969 through 1974, after moving to Carolina from Houston. Judging from this logo, maybe the team name should have been the Carolina Pink Panthers, since there’s a striking resemblance. In its’ short existence the team had 2 of the ABA’s best known coaches, Larry Brown and Doug Moe, and at one time or another boasted the likes of Billy Cunningham, Mack Calvin, Bill Bunting, Joe Caldwell, Jim McDaniels and Steve “Snapper” Jones.
