I like this song, but sometimes I turn the volume down on this video and open up another window a play The D.O.C. and the Doctor as the theme music. It seems like he wrote that song for this video, there's even a line in the song where he says "when you're in flight (yo) you gotta fly high. (Of course the Doc is banging on someone at the same time).
Dr J was my idol when i was young and i played Basket in Spain. Now i am 42 years old and he still is my only idol. I am a supporter of the Sixers because of Dr J.
Nowadays i can avoid to feel something special when watching this emotional tribute. i love ancient logo. Best regards to all people fan of the best Doctor in Basket.

He was called the Doctor by a friend in college. Doc called the friend Professor, he was called Doctor and it stuck. He had a bunch of other names too b4 Doc. He was called the Claw at the Rucker primarily because of his onehanded crowns over everybody.
he is 6'6 but he has great posture and it seems he taller, the way he dunks on taller players also adds to his height...he has 7 footers hands and arms so when ha expands into the air he almost a 7 footer, but his torso hieht is 6'6.
Thank you! This is the best video on utube! I was fortunate enough to see Dr. J many times in person and on early ABA basketball TV. It is refreshing to see a video that does justice to his God given talent and to Stevie Wonder also. Thanks for an awesome one!
I hear you about David , but David is cherished for more his NCAA career at NC state where as a 6-2 ,(some say 6-4) he dunked on countless players and literally carried NC State to good things. Thompson was AI before AI. A little big man who could do things in the air, had a very good mid-range shot too. Thompson's 360 dunk in the 76 ABA contest remains state of the art funky fresh.
Flavour - Spin, dunks, flow, off glass, big games, bigger 'fro, ABA ball, the nickname, Stevie Wonder, moves that would look as out of place today a set-shot, are immediately identifiable as his. Don't worry about if anyone's 'better' - just thank basket1989 for posting.
Are you joking. Kobe has not done jack and he has a better team arond him compared to the scurbs jordan had in the 80s pippen did not come to form until 90.
Michael wasn't overrated. Dr. J. was overrated. He wasn't even the best high flyer of his own era. David Thompson could jump higher than him, and Larry Bird shitted all over him in the early 80's
David Thompson is remembered mostly for his name and not his highlights. The fact remains that David Thompson doesn't have any dunks that are as legendary as Dr. J's. And Larry Bird shitted all over Dr. J? I suggest you check what happened in the 1982 playoffs.
Man the Doctor had the most ridiculous hands of any perimeter player I've seen. He holds the ball like it's an orange or something. MJ had BIG hands but Dr. J is in a different league.
David Robinson and other NBA players scored more 70+ points(inluding ur Kobe) in a single game better than Michael Jordan 69 pts. Does it mean they are better scorer than Michael Jordan? Certainly not, Consistency is what makes Michael Jordan the much better player than Kobe. Michael Jordan lead the NBA 10 times in scoring. Kobe only once and his ave. score is only 35+ (though he has 81pts.) while MJ is 37+pts. Now who is better?
I have fond memories living in Philadelphia watching home games of the 76ers. People who saw thoses games still talk about the moves the doctor made. Dr J was the best! The name of the song is "Master Blaster" by Stevie Wonder.
Jordan was so much more the complete player: offense/defense/ and especially in his ability to elevate everone else's game, and certainly in his will to win. Doc was not "the man" on the Sixers - an integral part of scoring, but left the playmkaing up to Cheeks, Jones and Collins. But Jordan is not my all time sports hero and idol. And Jordan never made my jaw drop like The Doc did. The Doc will always be my hero. I will always stand in awe of him.
MJ perhaps never made your jaw drop because he broke your jaw in awe! hehehehe! Dr. J is of course one of my favorite player but you can,t deny Michael Jordan is better than Dr.
Dr.j is the best dunker ever and most likely always will be aye. Very inspiring player and one of greatest in all time. I liked all the moves he did aye anyways great vid m8
I think 10 yrs. from now kids will never remember who is Michael Jordan, You have Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Arenas and even Wade dominating the Shooting Guard and Small Forward Positions.
I gave my Credit to Julius Erving because 20 yrs. since he retired ( He retire in 1987) and people are still remembering him and comparing him to his protege Michael Jordan.
NO YOU ARE WRONG KID AGAIN. until the end of the NBA the name "MICHAEL JORDAN" will be remembered by every generation of NBA fans. You know why? He is the standard measure of greatness wherein every new great player will be compared. That is why Kobe will never be greater than MJ coz he is playing under the shadow of Michael Jordan. Kobe is just another wannabe MICHAEL JORDAN.
be honest kid, you are arrogant just like kobe to accept that you too is Michael Jordan fan, hehe...Lebron James jersey # is 23....which reminds you of who? of course MICHAEL JORDAN...lebron wears that as tribute to his idol "MICHAEL JORDAN, heehehehehehehehe!
overrated? A player who lead his team to 6X champinship, 6X final MVP,5X regular season MVP, 3X all star MVP, 72 wins in regular season(the best ever) etc. etc. hey kid not enough space! the buggy short pants your wearing when u r playing it's Michael jordan who introduced it!! Michael Jordan revolutionized NBA kid! is that what u called "overrated"?
dr.j was so fortunate to have huge hands. and everone who says he's more exciting or better than mj, that a lie. yes dr.j was great, but mj is right now the best ever. mj is like an upgraded dr.j and they both have huge hands

And he lead all the ALL STAR Vote getter with 2.6 Millions of Vote.
MJ is great but he is too overrated.
