50 Cent Calls Julius Erving An ‘Old Hater’ Over LeBron James Criticism
50 Cent Reacts To Julius Erving Leaving LeBron James Off His Top Two All-Time NBA Teams
Julius Erving is currently in the news over his remarks on LeBron James and his legacy this week. During a recent appearance on Posted Up with Chris Haynes, the NBA legend named his top two all-time NBA teams, combining some of the greatest players ever and creating a fantasy team.
One obvious omission from Erving’s list was LeBron James, who is one of the best players to ever step on a basketball court.
On his first team, Dr. J named Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, and Elgin Baylor as his starters. For his second All-NBA team, he listed off Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Karl Malone, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
“He’s the guy who has led the charge in terms of super teams…”@JuliusErving doesn’t have LeBron on his top-two All-Time NBA teams 👀

He explained why he left out LeBron, saying, “He’s the guy who has led the charge in terms of super teams. When he put together a team in Miami, he put together a team in Cleveland as well, and he put together a team in Los Angeles. So, he can pick his own team. I ain’t going to pick his team.”
As very much expected, 50 Cent has chimed in, explaining why he thinks Erving wasn’t thinking straight when he left off LeBron.
“Sounds like old hater shit to me,” he said, reposting a headline about Erving’s statement. “It takes a lot of work and talent to be @kingjames if that wasn’t true we would have 3 or 4 of him, we only got 1.”
