Legends Julius Erving, Magic Johnson think they could beat Warriors

Having dominated LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first two games of the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors are being called the best team ever by some, but many others don't think they stack up against the legends. Add Dr. J to the latter category.

Julius Erving became the latest to say that his title team, the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers, could not only compete with but beat this year's Warriors.

That comes after Magic Johnson said his Showtime Lakers of the 1980s would probably sweep Golden State.
