68/6/6/3/2 on 60% shooting, no three point line, never needed to get his feet set to get his shot off, and was thrown out of the game by the refs on a bogus 6th call before he could break 70

one of my all time favourite players

[u/throwawaythursday99]

Pistol shot 10-15 from three in the lone season he was able to do such. Imagine his college numbers with a 3pt line. Also lol of course it was against the Knicks.

Pete Maravich is underrated

[u/WayfaringJerkface]

Check the FT routine. He walks into it immediately after receiving the bounce pass from the official.

[u/Smok3dSalmon]

A lot of this looks like the modern NBA. The biggest difference is that a lot of the passes look comically dorky. That court looks naked without a 3pt line

[u/DraymondShldntWear23]

The man that inspired Magic Johnson. Think about that one.

[u/Bigsmoothmachine]

After every shot, you can just hear him say, "good."

[u/sylsau]

Pete Maravich was a true basketball genius.

For those interested, watch the movie, "The Pistol: The Birth of a Legend."

This was against the Knicks who won 2 rings that decade. Clyde Frazier was getting torched too yikes
