I'm old school. And I have met a lot of sports celebrities over the years when i was younger because I worked in the hospitality industry...and hands down my favorite player is Julius Erving. Just a great all around guy away from the cameras and hoopla. His game was magnificent for the time and he was a pioneer. Some runner ups - mostly because of interactions I had with them on top of them being great players,,,Charles Barkley and Reggie White.
