Saw Maravich a few times when i was really young. Lsu didnt even have a basketball arena, they played in the building where they held rodeos. Maravich was a freshman and then there would be a freshman game then a varsity afterwards. We would go watch the Pete and the building would be packed...as soon as the freshman finished the building would empty..lol
But the best game ever had to be this one. Shaq and Chris Jackson vs Hank Geathers and Bo Kimble...

1991 UNLV team.
Larry Johnson, stacey augmon, Greg Anthony, Anderson Hunt, George Ackles, Evric Gray, Elmore Spencer and of course current UNLV head coach Dave Rice.
Came back for their senior year after winning title by 30 over duke in previous season, only to lose at buzzer as once Greg Anthony fouled out, they were lost. Loved watching that team.... watching the old midnight games on Big Monday before ESPN became a reality show.

Yep but actually arkansas was #2 on Feb. 10th 1991 when that game was played. Arkansas also had fatass Oliver Miller. They also beat Michigan state with Steve smith that year.
I think their average margin of victory was 25 or so points, of course alot of that was big west competition. i was at the final four that year when Duke beat them in Indianapolis.
na, i don't know your relation with him...i just know he used to come down to where i lived(breezy point)to play in the summer league(which for a time was one of the best around, ask anyone)...he came with some other marine parkers...and those guys partied..but since you are his friend, you know how most of those nights/mornings ended
Best one I ever saw in person was the 1972-73 Providence College team that went to final 4 losing to Memphis. Team was coached by Dave Gavitt and featured All-Americans Ernie DeGregorio and Marvin"Bad News" Barnes. If Barnes does not go down with a knee injury against Memphis in semis, they may have won the whole thing that year....Saw them play about 5 times that year in person.
yeah, he only came down to play with the guys from marine park and some guys who played with him at xavierian...maybe once or twice he came down with terry boss? was that his teamates name?..you might know better than me....his name was terry i do remember that..those summer leagues were intense...
