One of the coldest nick names of all time no pun intended. The Ice Man !

Sonics had to trade him. Scotties main value offensively is being a point-forward, and that was not going to happen with Payton there And Scottie would not be known as one of the greatest of all time if he was in Seattle behind Payton and Kemp

Just now hearing about Bernard King from Melo’s podcast. Shouts to this legend. Cool to see so many amazing players shout him out.

no body does it better, No body..!! Magic..!

Shout out to Mr Gervin im from Detroit my dad put me up on him win i was a kid and i watch him alot Hall of Famer 💯💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

King of finger roll iceman

I literally had this guys layup package in 2k , it felt so underrated I didn’t know he was an older player like that

Not only the finger roll, but so smooth, so graceful. Really fun to watch play.

I like how the ice man credits the OGs before him. Miss this kind of stuff.

Fanga Roll!😂😂😂

Gervin was definitely the master of the finger roll. Clyde Drexler had one of the best finger rolls as well. James Worthy was pretty good too, but didn’t have that extra flip of the wrist.

Fayngahrole!

1:45 Scott had that PTSD coming back from remembering getting torched by MJ

One thing I could do…was finger ro’

Another move stolen from Elgin Baylor.

Hes like "nuh uh, i dont need to dunk! Check out this smooth move instead!" Makes it look way too easy to slip that past defenders

Bernard King is Basketball Royalty

This makes no sense in 1990 Seattle had the 2nd pick......if they would have kept Pippen do u think they would have been bad enough to get the 2nd pick

What if my ......they did and thats they fault.....Chicago aint put a gun to their head to make that stupid trade

I'm missing something here like where is Isaiah's apology for the way he talked about magic after his diagnosis? It's late maybe I didn't read the notes I don't know.

That means no 72-10! and Michael Jordan won't get a Ring!!

Magic no look pass

Wilt had the ugly big fingerroll. But Ice could make a fine shot from 3 point range and soft off the glass. Ice was a class act.

Let's not forget his deadly one handed jump shot

A true Magician

When I used to play we called the finger roll “ the Gerv”

He'd average 40ppg off finger rolls alone today.

My parents were Major Huge Boston fans. I grew up hating Magic. He made my parents sooo mad every year 😂😂😂

Just learn,padawans 😉

Jordan was head and shoulders yet didnt win a playoff series until Pippen became a bull LOL

Lebron James would have swiss chessed the 80s could you imagine the Akron Juggernaut in the 80s lol

I see where Jordan got some of his moves.. ppl need to see the GOATs b4 Jordan!

The first half of this video literally talks about how MJ relays developed pippen. The real question is who on the Sonics would’ve brought that out if Pippen? Pippen was not good his first three seasons.

A shame there was so little highlights of his games back then as very few were even broadcast back then.

2 minutes of magic passes. 10 minutes of bird... Just saying. Magic made ordinary passes look amazing. Bird made amazing passes look ordinary.

Both of them are my crush

Doing reverse finger roll floaters while jumping that high in the air insane.

THE GOAT!!

Shaq would destroy his son under the basket in his prime!! Probably also still now!!!😂

The smoothest shot in basketball He knows how to FINGER -ROLL 🏀

My 'honest' opinion: scotty was not this highly regarded player coming into the league. I think if he would have been drafted anywhere else other then the bulls hed be an average player. I think pippen had the tools but mike pushed him to be consistent and how to be intense and to be ready for big moments.

Thanks

Big IFs

Sonics never would have drafted Kemp and Pippen would never have become the same player that he became with the bulls so no rings for seattle

Cool mix. Good music choice and nice editing. Keep up the good work. Fun to watch.

As a Center in HS I obviously looked up to the big guys out there and practiced Kareem's sky hook to that level that it became automatic. The second move I've practiced for years was the Iceman's finger roll. To this day I still can't do it. The finger roll is the smoothest, most elegant yet toughest move to learn. I clearly failed but it looks amazing when Gervin did it.

Scottie would not have been the Scottie we all knew with Jordan. MJ was MJ with or without Scottie. Crazy numbers scoring and efficiency. He came into the league that way. Scottie however came into the league averaging single digits bench riding player. It was MJs influence on Scottie's game that changed things for him. A lot of Scottie's game mimicked MJ's. Not the other way around.

Ambidextrous skyhook is god mode
