Cavs-Pistons highlights 1/29/78

More great late 70s action. This video focuses mainly on four players - Clyde Frazier and Campy Russell of Cleveland and Bob Lanier and Eric Money of Detroit. I like how Mendy Rudolph calls Foots Walker "Footsy." Note Don Adams and Al Eberhard sitting on the Pistons' bench in civvies.

That's my bro Eric Money..such a good hearted dude..And one hell of a Baller..great seeing these clips

[@pmsfar-outgrooviness8025]

It's a shame his career ended so soon

[@carseye1219]

I don't remember Clyde doing much of anything for my Cavs but he was effective here. Seemed like the period where Campy Russell was an unstoppable offensive force was fairly short but it was something to watch while it lasted.

[@70sfan]

Clyde is always cool and calm, such a great player even past his prime. Lanier as always methodical and consistent. Campy was the master of fadeaways and bank shots. He made so many tough shots in the games I've seen that I'm quite surpirsed he's quite efficient in his prime.

70's basketball the most underrated decade, a lot of my all time favorites are 60's and 70's guys. Bob Lanier should be mentioned more when it comes to all time great centers btw! And Campy Russell, there's another often forgotten star!

Oh, this is wonderful! Thanks so much for posting it!

[@warrenspeaks]

So hard watching Clyde in that uniform. But that team looks good. Clyde even made Cleveland cool.

[@Amick44]

Yep. Clyde near the end, but still smooth, patient & effective. He took what the defense gave him, rarely rushed things & still productive. Much like Oscar & later Larry.

I remember all these Piston players I grew up with, great post! Horrifying to see Chis Ford and ML Carr eventually became Celtics.

[@pmsfar-outgrooviness8025]

Lol!

[@hwolfeiii6892]

@@pmsfar-outgrooviness8025 Campy Russell, Walt "Clyde" Frazier, Eric Money and Big Bob Lanier legends of the game. In this era, no 3 point line, you had to really know how to pass, dribble, post up and shoot the ball.
