It takes true humility , to not take credit for The finger roll. Gervin is a player that has achieved so much by way of his own individuality, that he can give credit to those who he learned from.
There will another Iceman coming soon. A different kind of Iceman. A much Tougher Iceman with different Qualities so don't even think about comparing the two . His jumper will be much more Superior than George Gervin . He'll be alot shorter/5'8' & tremendously faster than George Gervin . And may even jump just as high if not, higher!. His drive through the paint will be ridiculous !. Rebounds will be ridiculous as well as handles!. This will be a much more different kind of Iceman, TRUST ME.
Chris Douglas-Roberts reminds me a lot of the Iceman. He has a lot of those shots. He can finger roll with both hands and is about the same build as Gervin. Look for him to take off this season for the Nets
Ice is Nice! A true one of his kind! George was right,you do not hear people comment "oh he is like Iceman" One of the greatest and I am glad I saw him play along with other NBA greats-Chamberlin,Jabbar,Jordan,Bird,Robinson,Erving-gosh the 70's and 80's were the Best in the NBA
LISTEN to his voice...he sounds exactly like Allen Iverson. especially at the beginning where he's talking about practice hah...its not what he's talking about though, just the tone of his voice.
Gervin, the smoothest, funkiest, and SLOWEST player ever. He did everything so nonchalantly that it seemed like he was asleep half the time. It's almost as if he wasn't even trying, and still scored all of those points.. He truly is like ice
Yeah, and the worst thing is they cut the footage on this one. If they let it run another few seconds, the camera pans back to Gervin after the shots goes in and he's just staring blankly...like a cyborg.
If you saw Gervin play, youll remember how he could Stop Time with his SHOTS, he would shot and you could just see how creative he would be and you would be amazed,he was great.
Players like Gervin defined the game in the 70s and 80s. I had the opportunity to see him play at the Hemisfair Arena growing up. An if you didnt see him play you missed a Legend.
Hmmm. T-Mac has won how many playoff series? How many scoring championships? 0/0 v. Ice at ~8 and 3. And T-Mac is better defender ... um, no, b/c Ice is top 5 of all time in blocked shots by guard. Oh, T-Mac must have been top 50 of all time? Ah, no, Ice again. Ice, Ice, baby!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Tmac actually has 2 STRAIGHT scoring titles and has more Carrer Blocks and Steal so wtf are u talking bout get ur facts straight!!. Tmac is and well always be a better ALL ROUND PLAYER THEN ICEMAN ...and im not even a Tmac fan.
I guess his scoring titles were w/ Orl? I see he averaged 32 ppg once. And even w/ two, still one fewer than Ice. I disagree that T-Mac is better. Prime of his career now, age 28, w/ a pretty good center in Yao, and T-Mac can't get squat done.
actually he did get things done, Yao and Steve Francis were both injured and wut's his name, Mark something, that PG was traded so they lost 3 key players
fissionblade serious cuz u dont wanna say no shit 2 me man ma boy steph his cousin knows the best hackers in the whole new york dey grimey man so check ur self they get the ** they find u & its over
george gervin the iceman is a nba legend all of famer a all time great named 2 the 50 greatest players in nba history he was a unstoppable offensive force, dont even bring up tracy brokeback mcgradys name he sucks ass he still cant get past the 1st round
can any of you two fuckin play better than t-mac? I'd like to see you get IN to the NBA even if you tried they'd probably call you a dick-sucking loser and laugh in your face!
fissionblade man im tha nigga from brooklyn u dont wanna fuck wit damn if u said that 2 my face i would beat ur fuckin arse 2 the curb & crack ur jaw in2 pieces bitch
wat a stupid ass shit 2 say wen the fuck did any1 on dis vid say they play better than t-mac hes in the NBA im still playin ball 4 my highschoool team imma be a pro baller 1day, we sayin tmac aint got shit on the iceman
tmac?....tmac never won the scoring title 3 straight times...tmac never was mvp of the allstar game...tmac never scored 33 pts in 1 qtr..still an nba record....tmac hasnt even won a playoff series...
T-Mac doesn't have that finger roll. Lots of players CAN do a finger roll, but there's NEVER been a player who did it as well in as many different situations as the iceman.
Awesome!! The Iceman was the stuff!!! My all-time favorite player. I still have the poster of the Iceman sitting on those ice cubes. Aint nobody bad, like the Iceman. Heck, even his nickname is sweet.
Now uv started readin dis dunt stop. This is so scary. Send this to 5 ova videos in 143 minutes. When ur done press F6 and ur crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters. This is scary cause it actually works. If u break the chain u will have problems with relations p.s for the next five years x-x-x
Because you have opened this... you will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life... if you don't break the chain. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. However, if you don't send this to at least 10 people by the stroke of midnight tonight you will be forever cursed in love. Just copy and paste this.. Good Luck

Tracy McGrady is a far better all around player. Gervin was a great scorer, but couldn't guard a chair. He also was a mediocre passer.
