DVD Reviews of The Night of Pistol Pete
DVD Review: Buyer beware, you may be sorely disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
There are two big problems with this DVD.
First, it's a mediocre copy of a black-and-white telecast. Grainy, fuzzy. If you grew up with B&W TVs and rabbit ears, you'll feel very at home. But if you're looking for clarity, forget it.
Second, if you're looking for Pistol Pete at his best, the last thing you want to see is his biggest scoring night ever. Think about it. What made the Pistol so amazing was his range of skills and, most importantly, his unorthodox passing. He was Magic Johnson before there was a Magic Johnson, but with a jump shot. But in this game, all he does is shoot. And he shoots very well indeed, but that's pretty much all he does, the vast majority of them jumpers. So if you want to watch Pete Maravich shoot lots of jump shots, buy this DVD. But if you want to see the Pistol shooting, dishing, driving to the hoop, making all the surprising passes that distinguished him from other NBA players, you will be very disappointed.

Description of The Night of Pistol Pete
One of the greatest single-game sporting accomplishments of all-time is now on DVD! "The Night of Pistol Pete" is a documentary of Pistol Pete Maravich's 68 point game against the New York Knicks at the Superdome on February 25th, 1977. Maravich's amazing effort that night was the most points ever scored in a game by a guard in NBA history. At the time, only two other players in NBA history had scored more points in a game: Center Wilt Chamberlain and Forward Elgin Baylor. This documentary also provides a brief history of the New Orleans Jazz and facts about Maravich's life as told by former players, coaches, writers, friends & family. It also gives insight to the cause of Pete's untimely death.Bestsellers in DVD
