For all you True Lovers of Basketball listen to The Iceman George Gervin

[FL_BRYANT]

This is one of the best Basketball interviews I've ever heard.  As a freshman in 1969 at the University of Detroit I saw George play in High school.  The first guy I ever saw do a spin. I also saw him at Eastern Michigan.  In my sophomore I got home sick and went back home to Pittsburgh and attended Duquesne where I met Norm Nixon.  We became friends and we remain friends to this Day.  He always got me front row seats to Laker games and into the Great Western Forum. I witnessed Dr. Buss and the parties back in the Day.  Boy if I told you the stories I'd  have to kill you.  I movedto Atlanta in 82. This is where  I grew to Love the Hawks. I live in the Bay now. This is my Basketball story. I've had a Love for basketball all my life.

I knew Supes would like this. There is nothing like shooting a good jumper . I've  had a Love of Basketball for 61 years. That's as long as girls. What a great sport.

Awesome story.  So cool you had front row seats to the best Lakers era.  Jealous.

Before my time, but I've seen enough content about Gervin to know he was one of the greatest scorers of all time, and somehow underrated. I would have loved to see that guy play.
