18. Julius Erving
| In the fading light that is the ABA, you can still see him swooping above everyone else. He was an Afroed sideshow before he was the main act, and when he finally made it to the NBA, he was as good as advertised. Yes, Jordan took Erving's aerial act to another level, but Dr. J was the first man who walked on the tightrope without a net. |
