(9,901 posts)I was young when Pistol Pete was playing, but the only teams and players that intrigued me was UCLA, and the Lakers.
In retrospect, Wilt Camberland wasnt the only giant out there..

(1,564 posts)I never get tired of watching video clips of this b-ball wizard. I remember watching him score 63 against the Knicks. He played college ball before the 3-pointer existed. Imagine his records if you counted all the 3-point range shots he made.

(6,943 posts)As a kid, we idolized him on the court. At LSU then the New Orleans Jazz, he became a local legend. And by local, I mean he sat in the same church pew as I. Always in the back near the exit to avoid attention. I sat in the same area, but just because I am uncomfortable in crowds.
And Lord knows I attract a crowd wherever I go. Not.
