Wussten Sie schon?
Scored 63 points in the final regular season game of 1978 to clinch the scoring title — 33 of those in the second quarter alone, one of the most remarkable single-quarter performances in NBA history.
His finger-roll became so iconic that it is displayed in the Basketball Hall of Fame as a representation of 1970s-80s NBA artistry.
Won four scoring titles from 1978 to 1982 — the most dominant scoring run over a five-year window of any guard in NBA history at the time.
The nickname 'The Iceman' came from his unnerving calm under pressure — he was reportedly the same temperature whether the game was meaningless or on the line.
