Against the Knicks in the Superdome.

Was there. Amazingly, he was being guarded by Walt "Clyde" Frazier, a guy considered to be one of the better defensive guards at that time.

I was there that night. An incredible performance by Pete. And that , I believe, was with no three point line. And they fouled him out on a bogus call or else he would have scored a few more. That is one of my lasting memories with the Jazz along with two nights we broke the attendance records, the first being against Kareem and the Lakers during a Noah's Arc type flood and the second against Dr. J and the 76ers. But I digress. I will have my tape player working overtime tonight with One for the Ages on at the same time while the LSU Coaches Caravan is streaming on line. I miss my live sports but I will have plenty og great entertainment tonight.

If this makes it online someone let me know. I have a friend in the military that is currently in Germany that wants me to dvr and rip it and send it to him and I am way too dumb to know how to do all that.

It will also be streaming on line on Fox Sports Go.

It'll be like 3 in the morning and I doubt he has access to FoxSportsGo in Germany.
I'm going to DVR it and figure the tech stuff out.

Was it just me or was part of the game in color then black and white?

Haha it was. Not sure what happened to the tape.

Incredible. I was awestruck as I sat in the Dome on February 25, 1977 and I was awestruck again as I watched it tonight. And that Knicks roster, even the bench, was loaded with a who's who list of basketball history.

Unbelievable mid range game
With 3 point shot he scores at least a 100 in one game
Tell Utah to give us our nickname back, it’s criminal

I was there as well- the thing is, didn't Pistol foul out of the game? I was also thinking back about one questionable offensive foul and another time he scored but they said his foot was on the line. I will have to see replay of the game, your mind gets hazy after 40+ years!

I watched the replay. He fouled out with a little over a minute left on a very questionable offensive foul call. In fact three of his six fouls were charging calls and several of the fouls were very questionable. I am being generous when I use the word questionable because I don't feel like ranting and raving about a call that happened 43 years ago like I will be doing about the NOLA No Call if I live to be 110. The ref was a very young Dick Bavetta who was a long time official in the league.

The next season, on Thanksgiving night, they played the Nuggets. Less than 2 min to play, and down by 8. Pete scored 10, including the game winner- a running 30’ hook shot, to win it. He also stole 2 inbounds passes during that stretch. Was amazing. Would love to see a video of it.

My biggest takeaway was how great the announcers were. Anybody know who those guys were? I think they said it at the beginning of the broadcast but I wasn’t paying attention.

Didn't catch their names. But, the Jazz had the greates radio announcer: Rod "Hot Rod" Hundley.
