Zoo recalls the game: Sixers fans would probably point to the title-clinching Game four in Los Angeles as obviously most memorable contest of the series (Julius Ervings crunch time burst, Maurice Cheeks celebratory dunk). But I point to this game for one moment and one moment only. During a particular run in the game, reserve center Earl Cureton, strictly a defender and rebounder in his role with the team, hit a hook shot over the master of the skyhook, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. It came during a particular point in the game, with the Sixers on a run and the stars in the sky aligned just right. As the ball hit net the crowd lit into an absolute frenzy. Its the loudest Id ever heard the masses at the old Spectrum. Box Score |
