    Pistol STILL holds the NCAA record for ppg at 44.2 WITHOUT the 3 point basket..AND holds the total points at close to 4,000. And freshmen weren’t allowed to play on the Varsity. Watching him in person for the Jazz was GREAT! And then we have “Iceman.” Earl Strom asked Gervin once if the ball felt inflated enough. Gervin says “A ball’s a ball” and proceeded to score 42 points!

I wish people still did that. It would sometimes get so absolutely ridiculous, even if they guys didn't like each other they'd wind up laughing together. That's a GOOD thing.

    I remember watching Gervin in warm-ups about an hour before game time back in 1977 at the old Capital Centre in Landover. He went through a variety of shots using both hands from 4 to 10 feet. I don't think he missed a shot in about 15 minutes. Most amazing thing I've ever seen.

    If this was (as the announcer said) just after George Gervin edged out David Thompson for the scoring title, then it must have been just after the 1977-78 season, when Pete Maravich got injured and was limited to about 50 games played. Nice to see he came back from that injury and was still skilled enough to win this HORSE match-up against the Iceman. They were among the best NBA guards of the time., But then, we also see why, even not counting for injuries, it was George Gervin who had the better all-round career as a shooting guard, with teams that regularly made the playoffs. All his shots here are basic jumpshots, bankshots, etc, which star players actually are expected to make in actual game competition. Whereas, Maravich's shots (like making baskets while sitting down, jumping from outside the court to make reverse lay-up, etc.) are great trick shots, but you won't really get many chances to take those kinds of shots in an actual NBA game, and if you try, your coach is going to read you the riot act. Still, a salute to both legends of the game.

    Fun to watch. I had the good luck to see Gervin light up the Lakers for about 40 in person, and also went to a game in '76 when the Pistol went for 49 and New Orleans upset the reigning champion Warriors in OT. He must've gotten 20 in the 4th qtr and I think 8 in overtime. He was hitting the craziest shots and was simply unstoppable.

    Wow, this brings back memories! Had lots of cool stuff like this when I was a kid that , sadly , you don’t and probably won’t ever see again due to the money factor and fear of hurting your “ brand”. And it was the biggest stars in their sport, too! One on one competition with NBA stars, a weekly home run competition between 2 of MLB’s biggest sluggers vying to move on to the next week and an eventual championship match. Think Aaron, Mays, Mantle, etc. An actual full fledged pre-season football game between a team of college all-stars vs a NFL team (if memory serves, I think it was usually the previous seasons Super Bowl champs) and who could ever forget the yearly Superstar competition, a fun but serious series of athletic events such as swimming, sprinting, weightlifting , obstacle course as well as some recreational games like bowling , H.o.r.s.e. and the like, designed to determine the “world’s best all-around athlete”. It included the best , well known professional athletes of the day. We took these events for granted back then, but can you imagine watching Lebron vs Durant in one on one , or home run matchup with Trout vs Stanton or Judge or Harper, etc..never happen or if it did it would be on ppv for some obscene amount of money and the participants would have to be heavily insured and sign all kinds of waivers and stuff! A shame the kids (and us old timers) of today are denied the chance to see these special , fun events by the world’s best athletes of today!
