Pistol Pete Maravich

Pistol Pete in this era might have been the greatest basketball player of all time, and shooter. I guess his LSU college coach went back and charted all of his scoring plays and according to him, he would’ve made 13 threes per game averaging 57 points a game whether that’s true or some tall tail I have no idea

  • Exceptional Ball Handling: Maravich's control over the basketball was extraordinary. He handled the ball like a yo-yo, making it an extension of his hand. His creative dribbling moves, like between-the-legs and behind-the-back dribbles, were often unpredictable and difficult for defenders to guard.
  • Creative Passing: "Pistol Pete" was known for his flamboyant and innovative passing, including his signature no-look passes, behind-the-back passes, and over-the-head assists. These moves were considered ahead of their time and captivated audiences.
  • Deep Shooting Range and Scoring Ability:Maravich was a prolific scorer, leading the NCAA in scoring three times and the NBA in scoring once (1976-77 season) with an average of 31.1 points per game. He possessed a reliable jump shot and was willing to shoot from almost anywhere on the court, frequently from deep distances. His tendency to shoot from his hip earned him the nickname "Pistol".
  • Emphasis on Creativity and Entertainment: Maravich saw basketball as an art form and a means of self-expression. He practiced unique moves and aimed to entertain the crowds with his flashy plays. Some even considered his style to be ahead of its time by five decades. He was an improvisational player who often performed moves that had never been seen before.
