He would have been a good spot up shooter on the Phil Jackson Bulls or Lakers, admittedly.
He was playing against plumbers and garage mechanics in his own time tho. Even more so for Wilt the Stilt.

I think your temple would be a good spot to shoot you...

this was his college stats and while I'm sure college players today are better athletes, I would argue they aren't better as complete teams.
Maravich led LSU never beat UK. Their strategy was to recognize that he was going to get his points, but the LSU team as a whole wouldn't score more than 65 points or so , so Rupp just made sure they clamped down on the rest of the team. Maravich was handicapped by having his father as coach and choosing LSU to be with him.

This topic was at the bottom of the list just now (sorted by last post date/time, most recent at top). I’ve never seen it at the bottom, ever.
Anyway, the Celtics took PSF to a whole new level last night. Any current day player who has the nerve or audacity to refer to players from 30-40 years ago (the Jordan era) as “plumbers” needs to be punched in the mouth. Today’s NBA is nothing more than team H-O-R-S-E.

Second Row Joe better make some adjustments, and Tatum needs to get over that imprinting done on him by K. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

"Anyway, the Celtics took PSF to a whole new level last night."
The Knicks made almost the same percentage from behind the arc last night as they did from the free throw line...

I mean, the Celtics missed 45 threes last night.
That’s fucking ridiculous.

They’d probably be told to just rebound and pass the ball back behind the arc.

Second Row Joe's coaching is a problem. This system is unsustainable, and Tatum will be lucky to be back by the All Star Break next season if this is an achilles rupture.

From IC. Recorded the highest Max Vert (43 inches) on the day. Also recorded a Standing Vert of 37.5 inches. 7' wingspan.
For comparison sake, Flagg's Max Vert was 35.5 inches.
