John Sterling did play-by-play for a Nets game and couldn't help giving one of his patented calls

Most baseball fans know John Sterling as a Yankees radio broadcaster with interesting nicknames for players and an even more interesting victory call. (That shake will definitely leave you feeling some kind of way).
But back in the mid-70s, for about five seasons, Sterling called Julius Erving-led Nets games. After that, he moved to Atlanta to cover the Hawks -- coming up with the famous "Dominique is Magnifique" phrase for Dominique Wilkins.
