Okay, on topic.

Was not Pistol Pete Maravich considered if not the best player to play the game up to then, at least the most phenomenal player of his era? And were not his teams some of the worst?
76-77 might have been his best year on New Orleans Jazz, he got 3rd place in MVP.
31/5/5 but by that time Kareem was on the Lakers and you know Jomal what happens when the marketers want something to happen to a Purple n Golden.
Plus the Jazz stunk at 35-47.
