Sixers - NBA Basketbal - Julius Dr. Erving - Basketball

Julius Winfield Erving II (Nassau County, New York), February 22, 1950), commonly known by the nickname Dr. J, is a former American basketball player. Erving made a major contribution to modern basketball, in which athleticism, leaping ability, and playing above the rim became increasingly important. Erving was in 1976, at the time of the merger with the NBA, the best-known player in the American Basketball Association (ABA). He won, collectively in the ABA and NBA, three championships and four Most Valuable Player Awards. He led the scoring list in three seasons. He did so while playing for the Virginia Squires and the New York Nets in the ABA, and the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA. He is the fifth-highest scorer in professional basketball history with 30,026 points (combined NBA and ABA). He is the only player to be named MVP in both the ABA and the NBA. In 1996 Erving was honored as one of the 50 greatest NBA players of all time, for which a list was compiled that year to mark the NBA's 50th anniversary. In 1993 he was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Erving was one of the best basketball players ever. He was known for his dunk from the free-throw line. He was one of the greatest dunkers of all time. His most famous dunk was the "slam" dunk. Since then, this move has grown into a staple concept in basketball and is seen by most as a fundamental part of the game. He is also credited with the creation of the "crossover" dribble and the "no-look" pass. This concerns a beautiful black leather signed basketball of Julius Dr Erving.
