We made a deal!

That's when you screwed up, Pete.

You believed in me.

So why did you come?

What do you think?

Not want to destroy the diner,

and I hate to ruin my

image in public.

Especially when I break your face.

No, Buddy.

Hey, what are you doing here?

This has nothing to do with you

.

Is between Maravich and me.

I.

"Metal Head"

do not tell me

you will try to stop me!

It is I who will.

Made a deal, Buddy.

The Pistol won.

Are you serious?

We talked.

And we play with

the black team.

Let's find out if we are really good...

with or without you.

Now Walk, this

means nothing.

We can not play with those guys.

Monday. At 19:
30.

If we discover what we really are.

Let.

I thought of some things

sitting there a few minutes ago.

Thought?

See you make me wanna dream

.

Dream to be an actress?

Dream at all.

Take care, Marilyn Monroe.

Pete, and the Cleveland

beat us?

There are going to win.

But what if they win?

So we can say we tried.

Let's put on a show that

they will not forget.

Pete, you are special even.

I felt a shiver the crown

to the tips of Ps.

Knew it was a friendly kiss

,

but I could not help but want

be a little older.

Well, at least

Sandy and I could

share our dreams.

You know, Pete, when I was in college

,

was called 'Man

Point Per Minute'.

Many felt that I could not

scoring 36 points per game, but they...

they were stuck in the past.

To my knowledge, no

white team

've played with a team of blacks in this region

so perhaps

just me and her mother

're in the stands.

Mom makes enough noise.

I will not disagree with you

about it.

Your dreams with some basketball

times let you discouraged?

They leave.

Do you know why?

I think so.

So why do it?

If you can create a magical moment

/

if you can show

fans something they have never seen,

they will return often,

either win or lose.

's Up to you to take them to a place

they've never been before.

Give them a

little hope.

I think you discouraged when

realize that half the people

who see

never understand.

They call me sausage.

But they are always there, waiting

I give a show.

So give a show.

Sometimes, just want to stop,

and be like everyone else.

This is a choice only you can make

, Pete.

But if it were me...

Them give a show to remember

forever.

But in any

is, love you, Pete.

I will always love you.

We have to understand

the Cleveland

plays different

at all times we face.

They run at full speed

until the final whistle.

It has three guys with an average

22 points per game.

All dart.

They all run.

Everyone plays.

Equally proud of their

48 consecutive victories.

Remember that without Buddy,

can not have many faults.

Carl.

Lord, You said all

is possible for you... Help us.

Thank you.

Okay, people,

without mercy!

One, two, three...

LIONS!

Pete, I gave you some freedom

,

and we won some games.

We will not win them

playing as them.

Let's make them the only way we know...

muscle and fundamentals of basketball, right?

Right.

At dawn...

Basic! Basic basketball!

Defense, people!

Do not worry about the outcome,

are going well.

Technical, they are

killing us.

Keep Basic.

Caprichem defense.

Come on, ending up with them!

It's show time, Pete!

Make your move. Do it now!

Decrease.

And works the ball.

Helen, I'll be right back.

In the middle of the game?

You can scream for me.

Bring popcorn!

You're looking at the future Buddy.

Amazing pitches,

great base.

Pete and some of these boys

are twenty years ahead.

You have talent, son.

Or you enter the

boat or will be.

Walk... Forgot how

make a light trap?

Pete marker is on him like a Siamese twin

, he will not get your help?

What's wrong with you?

They act as if they could not

earn them.

We can beat them.

I think I was

wrong with this team.

I thought you had passion.

Can I say something?

I have to ask apologize to you.

I was a fool this year

and say, I'm sorry.

This team means everything to me,

although I like selfish /

well, I was selfish.

Father, just want to play.

Okay. Get dressed,

Come on, we will win!

No hard feelings?

No hard feelings.

Why would we win, we will have to work together

.

Hey, Buddy.

What?

I still think you

is a hard head.

I also.

Okay, where

is the first team?

CD, Moose, Vick, Pete...

I know coach Walker out.

That's it.

We earn them. Come on.

One, two, three, Lions!

Two, two!

Keep track!

Now I see!

Pistol, Pistol!

Pete! Calm!

This boy! That's it!

Defense, folks!

Not so bad.

Well, if it works out.

Defense, defense, defense.

Defense, defense

Defense.

Time, time, time.

Okay, everyone here!

We have time

to a pitch.

Pete, you made me believe.

We will see a bit of its magic.

One, Two, Three Lions!

Come on, boys!

We won!

Daniel Lions! We won!

No point,

was not the point!

As well, was not the point?

The weather still was running.

The last time I was stolen,

they wore a mask!

We won them and you know it.

Still have the best team.

For the locker room!

Pistol, Pistol, Pistol...

Words can not express how I felt

.

It was now heir of a Dream /

a dream that came true

.

Dad was right.

The fans wanted to live

a magical moment...

One moment

could fly high,

they could believe that anything was possible.

Win or winning, they would come

game after game to see

a boy of loose socks

known as Pistol.

Press Maravich gave his son

a great gift of love:

A life dedicated to see the dreams

your child come true.

These dreams have given life to

made of Pistol Pete Maravich,

the more professional basketball

young to join the HAII of Fame.

For over 20 years, your brand

stood the test of time.

of all time scorer in college basketball,

With an average of

44.2 points per game.

"The Pistol"

is dedicated to the memory of

"Pistol" Pete Maravich

As a legacy to their children

and children around the world...

That love never fails, the character does not give up

,

and with patience and persistence,

dreams become reality.

Close my eyes

I see when you were there

I can hear his words

Now I who calls

Through the windows of my heart

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me?

Memories survive,

The dream will not die

Love will never go away

Under the rain I'll be

Chasing the shadows until dawn

I'm still calling your

name when I sleep

In the rain I'll be

Chasing the shadows in the dark

Tell me why

Or stand there, awake

Under the rain

In all our

Looking back

Although you party

All I have to do is call

your name

Keep me,

Memories survive

The dream will not die

Love will never go away

Under the rain I'll be

Chasing the shadows until dawn

I'm still calling your name when I sleep

Under the rain I'll be

Chasing the shadows in the dark

Tell me why

cry myself to sleep

or stand there, awake

Under the rain

Under the rain I'll be
