It's lovely that Nelson George, Common, Julius Erving, and everyone else didn't demand to be removed from the project after learning I'd be sharing time with them in the preview. I'm at the :55 mark.

50 years ago, the dunk was born 🏀 ‘I'd dunked on the playground and in games, but this was different, I was practicing and trying to come up with some kind of creativity, but you know all that goes out the window in front of 15,000 fans and dunk against DrJ & David Thompson!’ George Gervin
