I saw Pete play at LSU. The other four players on the team were just to have someone to pass to to keep everyone from ganging up on Pete. I saw him score 65 points and it didn't look that hard.
Although there was no 3 point shot many of his field goals were far further out than the present 3 point line. He could shoot shortly after he crossed mid court and if they crowded him he could go around them as if they weren't there. Layups by Pete, pre slam dunk, were things of beauty as much as his long shots.
Like I said, his team mates were just someone to pass to and that was exciting at times to. You wondered how he knew there was someone where he passed it because he never even looked that way. I assumed he thought, and maybe he did, that since they weren't somewhere else they must have been there.
Remembering those times makes me aware that as much fun as they were, I should have appreciated them more. Now I do.
