Dr. J and Skywalker
40 years ago tonight marked the 4th annual All-Star Game match-up of David Thompson and Julius Erving, dating back to their 1976 ABA slam-dunk contest.
Dr. J's foul line take-off jam became a basketball history milestone, but Denver's sky-walking Thompson led 1979's West All-Stars to victory, and captured MVP honors.
Final score: West 134, East 129.
