When Julius Erving first got to the Philadelphia 76ers, that team was something else. Aside from Dr. J, the Sixers had George McGinnis, Doug Collins and Lloyd Free. Soon the team would have Darryl Dawkins too, a powerful center who was one of the first players to go directly from high school to the league.
The Sixers didn't live up to the talent level the team had thought and eventually made some moves. Eventually, they got Maurice Cheeks and Andrew Toney through the draft and traded for Moses Malone and Bobby Jones.
And as great a roster as that was, Jones was a very special member of that team.
