guy but i think the guys were better in those days

what you call it
jerry west
oscar robertson
jerry west and oscar robertson
people have no idea how good they were 0:00:45.859,0:00:46.860 this is true
this is true I saw oscar robertson score fifty three in madison square garden when he was a freshman at the university
of cincinnati
i thought he had twenty
it was the quietest fifty-three you ever saw in your life
was that the first time he came to the garden where he just astounded everybody yeah fifty three he was
nineteen years old and he scored fifty three points and you know didn't know he was in the game
he didn't do helicopter moves
he just didn't miss
and he had
he had the most subtle
%uh fakes oscar didn't jump very high
I don't think he ever dunked the ball in his life 0:01:24.260,0:01:26.870 but he had the most subtle head fakes
and he always went up when the other guy was coming down
fake the other guy would go up and then oscar would
go up and they'd pass each other on the way
