Indeed I was, especially for some good World B Free footage. I wanted to find some clips of him in a Cavs uniform playing against someone other than Jordan's Bulls.

I've never seen this Hawks footage before. Can anybody tell me is there a better and longer copy of the games included here? Unfortunately, Cliff Hagan isn't the main focus of these highlights...

Dr. J was usually the one putting guys on posters. But in the 1976 ABA All-Star Game, Bobby Jones posterized Erving on this slam.

Jones' athleticism is underrated and he posterized every star of late 70s/early80s:

Two of my all time favorite players to watch. Great duel.

Charles Barkley just doesn't make sense to me. How does a guy that looks like Mr Staypuft move and jump like that? And he has a decent midrange shot to boot.

In the last clip, you saw Dr. J get murdered by Bobby Jones. In this clip, David Thompson shows off his killer first step and athleticism.

This is another JBC video I made six years ago:

The original soundtrack featured a clip from the halftime show the 1987 All-Star game. In it, he more or less says that he couldn't care less what his critics think. The highlights were set to the Beatles "I'm Only Sleeping." I cleverly synched the lines "keeping an eye on the World going by my window" and "waiting for a Sleepy feeling" to the onscreen action. Oh well . . .

Completely unseen before highlights from the best basketball channel on YT - WCA. I think this video deserves own separated thread but it's player comparison section. Would anyone have something against if I create one?

To show what kind of support Wilt had in that series, Guy Rodgers took the second highest amount of shots for the Warriors next to Wilt and shot 26% from the floor including 0-12 in the first game. Meschery was a good player, but he wasn't a great scorer, and there was nobody else to pick up the slack.
Meanwhile, the Celtics had K.C. Jones as their starting pg replacing Cousy who had retired after the previous season. Jones couldn't shoot either, but he knew it, and didn't gun inefficiently like Cousy or Rodgers. There was only one blowout in the series. The Warriors won the third game after losing the first two in Boston, and the last two games were close as well. Warriors simply didn't have enough firepower.

I think it would actually go well on the GB. People there need something to talk about other than Kevin Durant, LeBron James, and legacies.

I created the thread on GB. It's my first thread there and I'm not sure how posters will respond. I've seen many haters here, but we'll see.

The Magic of the Kobe/Pau/Odom trio in 07/08. That second half 08 stretch (until of course being mangled by the Celtics) was perhaps the greatest half court offensive execution I've seen by a trio. Just really beautiful basketball.
