Remember a ref calling a questionable walk against Pete when he was with the Jazz & his HC screamed at the ref: "how can you call that a walk, you've never seen that happen before"? Bob Cousey called him "hands down the best ball handler I've ever seen." And for you young'uns, Cousey was consider the premier point guard for a long long long time. Had ESPN existed back then, they would have had to have a program just for Pete's highlights each nite.

The bank shots are fascinating. Just don’t see those off of jump shots these days.

I think you’re right. They also played one-on-one one year. Maravich had to play Bob Lanier

quote:It wasn't trash shots, it's called trick shots, and the game of HORSE is all about trick shots. That's how you beat opponents and win. Maravich was a master of trickery!

Tim Duncan was the last modern person to use bank shots. George Gervin was a master at the finger roll, he could do that shot from 10 feet away. Lol
The bank shots are fascinating. Just don't see those off of jump shots anymore.
