I'm a huge NBA fan, the biggest one I know. And I've had the privilege of seeing all of the greats of the past 25 years, Michael, Magic, an old broken down Bird, Shaq...and so on. However, that's the problem I'm not old enough to have seen the legend known as "The Doctor." This is a fascinating, yet short, documentary about Julius Erving. He was Jordan before Jordan. This documentary does a good job of showing Dr. J, warts and all. It touches on his many highs as a NBA superstar and his tragic lows of losing his brother at a young age and his son many years later. A must see for any NBA fan.
