Johnny Red Kerr - Ike Richman signed AUTO Philadelphia 76ers payroll check

Johnny "Red" Kerr (1932–2009) was an NBA player, coach, executive, and longtime Chicago Bulls broadcaster. A three-time NBA All-Star, he played from 1954–1966, primarily with the Syracuse Nationals, helping them win the 1955 NBA Championship. Kerr finished his career with 12,480 points and 10,092 rebounds and held the NBA record for consecutive games played (844) for nearly two decades. He later coached the expansion Chicago Bulls and spent 33 years as the team's beloved television color commentator.

Ike Richman (D. 1965) was General Counsel for the Philadelphia Warriors NBA basketball team. The year after the Warriors were sold and moved to San Francisco, Richman and Kosloff purchased the Syracuse Nationals, moved the team to Philadelphia and named them the Philadelphia 76ers. Ike Richman was Wilt Chamberlain's personal attorney and he was the attorney for several members of the team. Richman died suddenly on December 3, 1965 at a basketball game at the Boston Garden. At the time of his death, Wilt Chamberlain stated to the press that Ike Richman was like a father to him.
