Julius ‘Dr. J’ Erving reflects on storied history with Converse | ESPN

[@africandefender2967]

DJ was the most exciting player of all time then,and now through his High lite videos. Thank you Doc your the BEST.

[@borood1188]

Underrated player. He spent his prime years in the ABA.

[@mishasnow505]

not so much underrated as nearly forgotten after the Jordan tidal wave ...Dr.J was the most exciting player of his time and remains one of the greatest of greats ...it's nice to see him back in the news ...

[@DrSooner1]

Julius "Dr J" Erving is the epitome of class and dignity. The ultimate role model and ambassador. IMO he was the GOAT. So very privileged to have grew up in his era of dominance and influence.

[@gabrielchavarria22]

Dopest shoe on the market flat out! 👟💯

[@darrylhayes3662]

I Love Dr.J his legendary skills and off court mannerism ⭐️

[@sportslandentertainment4376]

Dr. J is a top 5 player of all time media and fans been disrespecting . Without Dr. J there's no Jordan, Drexler, TMAC, LeBron. The dude has 3 Rings, multiple MVPS, 30,000 + he should be in the GOAT conversation.

[@miltongloster2334]

SportsLand Entertainment I say that all the time. he was Jordan before Jordan.

[@drunkenmcbastard6374]

100% AGREE....I've argued for years about that especially about Jordan.....and the dunk from the free throw line.....Dr. J did it wit a afro and STILL did it.....Jordan had his foot over the line and was more aerodynamic cause no afro....lol LETS GO SIXERS

[@robertglanzrock2058]

Dr j my favorite player Wilt Chamberlain is the goat

[@masoncooper3357]

You aren’t wrong

[@sheldonsmith4795]

I had a pair of those in 1980. The good old days

[@briansd2772]

Just an overall well-spoken, respectful, nice person. Thanks Doc.

[@sheldonsmith4795]

That 1983 championship was well deserved by the Dr

[@MrBronx61]

They finally got him the big man he needed

[@rickrobitaille8809]

[@andytaylor6781]

Always love you Dr J

[@jstiles1659]

Dr. J was the man and then some.. Reporter wake up boi.

[@dalebell64]

Been wearing Converse since 73..

[@sherrodmacs3472]

Dr. J stuck with it and like a true champion got that ring. Just by that alone he should rank alot higher than some of those ring chasers (Like Kevin Durant and others).

[@ericjenkins9072]

Yo Dr J transformed the fan base of the NBA.His influence proved to be one of the growth and interest in professional basketball. Yes sir

[@Pernection]

This was the shoe. Uncomplicated, real leather, affordable and comfortable. Now we have wait until Nike decides to rerelease the shoes. Dammit

[@markdeem2776]

Watched Dr.J in the 80's on CBS sports on Sundays at my great grandmothers house such good memories of him and my time with my grandmother such good times still cherish to this day !!

[@russelturner5771]

I loved those old Julius converse commercials back in the day.

[@adamforman606]

Dr. J. has always been PURE CLASS on and off the Basketball Court. I was so happy for him when he finally WON his Championship in 1983 after those difficult losses to the Lakers in 1980 & 1982. He finally got his missing piece in "Moses Malone" , like Kareem had Magic Johnson.

[@G9Classified9]

I wonder why he doesn’t get the recognition he deserves, he is the reason basketball became so marketable

[@TheMeefive]

Because he was the super star of the ABA. The NBA lived in his shadow. When he joined the NBA he became the star of that league too. It was embarrassing for the NBA and its players.

[@michaelallen7961]

Those shoes are sharp as hell though.

[@VICTOR-py7hn]

Julius The Doctor Erving was a Superstar and NBA Champion. Ambassador of the league. Every kid dreamed of being Dr. J IN THE 70s and 80s

[@roberthesterjr6061]

Indeed a True Legend!!!

[@borood1188]

Old school!

[@LouJustlou]

I had some of those!

[@Lord_Winston]

In my view was the best ! What Jordan did was everything copycat from Dr J

[@kingstonban]

Profound truth🎯🎯💯

[@jyy9624]

He's number 1 before MJ's number 1

Converse is trash. LeBrons are better

[@Writer341]

Respect history. Julius is the reason why these players have their own shoe.
