Known as 'The Iceman' for his cool demeanor on the court, George Gervin let his game do the talking whether it was the ABA or the NBA. He popularized the finger roll and in his prime was often regarded as one of the best scorers of his time.

His career points total (ABA+NBA) of 26,595 only begin to tell the story. Only Wilt Chamberlain (7) and Michael Jordan (10) have won more scoring titles than Gervin. In his time, when the centers dominated the scoring charts, Gerving was the first guard to win three consecutive scoring titles. He kept scoring but he also did efficiently, shooting 51.1% from the field for his NBA career.

He was named to 12 straight All-Star games (ABA - 3, NBA - 9) and even won the All-Star game MVP in 1980.
