Thanks for this. Gervin gets underrated many times, he led his team - which wasn't all that - deep into the post-season plenty of times, maintaining/elevating his playing level. Iceman just one of the best scorers ever, and I love it how he made it look so easy and effortless.
That was a hard-luck series for the Sonics. The Spurs won this series, 4-1. The Spurs won games 1,3,and 4 by 2 points apiece, then won game 5 by 5 points, which clinched the series for them. The lone Seattle win in the series came in game 2, which they won by 15.

Understand that the Spurs weren't allowed to have draft picks till 1979, three years after the merger.
The air sure went out of the Kingdome after Gervin hit that last shot to give the Spurs the win. Sounds like you could have heard a pin drop.
2:04 amazing footwork.

Too smooth .
Back when they played back to backs in the playoffs
great shooter
Iceman was COLD
I feel blessed to have watched the ABA from 1972 until the merger. Prime Ice was breathtaking and as good as they come.
