Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 3581075, member: 271"] The highlights of that game are somewhere online. He was pulling up from 20’, basically the high school 3 point line. At that time that was a long ball. I don’t doubt he could shoot it from 25’ but I haven’t seen it on film. 55 years ago most 25’ foot shots were ugly set shots as time expired. There just wasn’t much reason to practice anything beyond 20’ back then. A 20’ pull up jumper was considered a bad shot until 15 years ago. I doubt he was stroking 25-35 footers with the coach’s blessing. [/QUOTE]
