your history is off pete played in finals against Jerry west and wilt in finals and year after rookie dr j fought to play with pete. Dr j was drafted 12th to bucks kareem but dr j refused and signed to hawks with pete but aba vs nba fued split them fool you off the ABA in 1971, Julius Erving was eligible for the NBA draft in 1972 (as that is when his college class would have graduated and he would have been considered eligble by NBA rules at the time). He was drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks (where he would have teamed up with Kareem Abdul-Jabar), but instead signed with the Atlanta Hawks (where he was teamed with Pete Maravich). Dr. J attended the Hawks preseason camp and played 3 exhibition games before having to return to the Virgina Squires due to a legal injunction.

Hawks never returned to the finals since 1958.
They did in 1961 but lost. Came close to the finals in 1966, but lost game 7 :(
As much as I love my city, I don’t think they’ll ever win another championship again.
Eh that’s a bit of a stretch
