After taking the NBA by storm on his retribution tour, Doctor Julius Erving, Mo Cheeks, Moses Malone, Dawkins and the rest, sought out to defend their NBA title in the 1983-84 season. As was customary, the Sixers started the 84 NBA Playoffs with their sites on defeating the rival Boston Celtics and advancing to defend their throne against west coast rival LA Lakers. But as the basketball gods would have it, the Doctor never got to defend that crown as the lowly New Jersey Nets got in their way and upset them in the first round.

It’s funny because Dr. J used to play for the Nets in the ABA and is arguably the best player the Nets ever had.
Arguably? He is the best player the nets ever had. Also, he was the best player the aba had!
Arguably. Tell me you’re gonna say Jason Kidd is better? That’s not even close
Sugar was unbelievable in this series!
Yes he was very rare to see road team win all three games on the road
Sixers didn't have answer for sugar
And Moses Malone wasn't as dominant in 84 playoffs as he was the previous season
Moses was hurting, but Dawkins played for once. Buck was great too!
0:46 "I miss the ABA."
No way in hell should the defending champion Sixers been upset by the Nets. Losing all 3 games at home. Still the biggest and most embarrassing moments in franchise history. Doc talked real big and bad about the Nets mailing in the score just to score a whopping 12 points along with 7 turnovers. Moses played bad that game as well although he was obviously hurting from that knee injury
I was on the Underdogs' bandwagon. I remember this 🏀
Michael Ray was manic.
This and the Bucks sweeping the Sixers in 83 minutes were the biggest upsets!
You mean bucks sweeping celtics in 83?
@@mikegillins4992
Yeah the Celtics!
Larry Bird sat out game 2 with a the flu, good for the Bucks.
Bird did have the flu but that wasn’t the issue in 83. The issue was, Bill Fitch lost his locker room.
@@NBAHistoryCLNS i stand corrected, and i was wrong it was game 2 not 3, and it was the flu, wow. Yes, end of Bill Fitch
We need Micheal Ray Richardson to past that footage for us to enjoy. I know Cmon have y'all asked him yet
