Wow!! It's been 25 years?? Really??? I still remember hearing the news of his passing like it was yesterday.

Pistol Pete was the best pure shooter that I ever saw. I remember being so excited when I saw him in person when his New Orleans Jazz visited the Celtics. He even had a cup of coffee with the Celtics at the end of his career.

That's exactly how I felt when I saw this thread, can't believe it's been 25 years. What an amazing player he was.

I can't believe it has been that long.
