Message: [QUOTE="BostonBay, post: 3833608, member: 10266"] Pistol Pete was way, way ahead of his time. His creativity was actually looked down upon in the 70's NBA, but look at how the game is being played today. Steph Cury & others are basically copying his approach to the game. He averaged like 24 PPG in an era with no 3-point line. He would have feasted with his shooting ability! 44 PPG at a Division 1 LSU school - that's insane. Its too bad about his body breaking down to soon. But, the guy is a deserved icon today. Pistol Paige has a similar game in terms of creativity & shooting ability! [/QUOTE]
