As far as Springfield, MA is concerned, yes, it was an idea there. It didn't really explode until later when Dr. Naismith was at KU. If you read the article, it wasn't until 1931 that he realized what he had in this document.
It would be like Albuquerque laying claim to Microsoft because the first inclination was there. Albuquerque is in the notes but not the focus.
