    What is the one game or one play that first comes to mind when somebody says to you, Pete Chilcutt.

    Moment: I think of his block against Dan Marjerle in Game 7 of the Pheonix Series. Pete actually got like a foot off the ground and smacked Dan Marjerle's shot into the ground.

    PSJ, do you think that one play or one game can really define a player of Petey's Calibur? I mean, there were so many moments that you could pick. What's funny is when I read that first line the first thing that came to mind was that block on Marjerle.

    Two phrases never before seen in one sentence:

    Chilly Pete and Hang time.

    He's the only professional player ever whose vertical leap was less than mine.

    The only time i remember Pete Chilcut, strangely enough, was also in Game 7 against the suns. The guy shot the lights out that game and that block on Majerle was nasty!

    I think there is a link to his fan club page from airbullard.com in the links section.

    The thing I remember most about Pete Chilcutt is this: There was a guy in my HS class who looked EXACTLY LIKE Pete Chilcutt. Even the same hair. Then he changed the hair, and he looked different, but originally, he was a splitting image. He was tall, and his name was also Pete [​IMG]

    Dont forget his column in the Chronicle during the playoffs: "Chillin' With Pete".

    "Last night I was DNP-coaches decision. That stands for Did Not Play."

    What insight, what journalism. He was robbed of the Pulitzer that year!!!!
