- When you search for Johnny Moore on UA-cam, you get more hits of random music artists (my apologies if they are more than that) than the San Antonio Spurs point guard who averaged 11.3ppg and 9.7apg for five straight seasons before suffering a nasty form of meningitis. We've talked about this before in the comment section of certain videos - the early 1980s are a gold mine of great point guards who didn't pan out for the most unlucky and tragic reasons. Moore wasn't among the absolute top notch of them, yet averages of 22.5 points and 14.6 assists per game that he had in these 1982-83 Playoffs do say something.
I really enjoy the patience of his ventures inside the 3-point line. That's what sets apart common point guards from good ones. Yeah, you might dart towards the rim when there's an open lane, but can you yo-yo around when all of that space isn't there. May 15, 1983.
Disclaimer - this version of the game that I have doesn't include a 3-pointer Moore made late in the fourth period. Admittedly, three of his 17 assists have some home cooking to them. - Спорт

most underrated Spur ever
Long time Spurs fan 46 years I met Johnny Moore at Madison Square garden back in the early 1980s when I told him I was a Spur he gave me a strange look then I showed him my fingers and I said look Johnny no rings and he couldn't stop laughing he embraced me and gave me an autograph for a player on my youth team who wasn't there that evening I used to call him the greatest in the game
Johnny Moore was a pretty good player... One of the greatest ever as far as passing awareness and even skill, always overlooked/underrated in that sense. Thanks for the upload.
Thanks for sharing! I was a year or two behind him in the same schools growing up. I'll never forget one game I watched him play when we went to Keith Jr. High School in Altoona, PA. Within 2 seconds of the opening buzzer, he launched a full court shot for a perfect "swish." It was one of the most courageous "hot dog" shots I had even seen in my young life. He became an instant legend in my book at that moment. :)
ngl idk how i ended up here, and before this i had zero interest in basketball and i've never even seen a basketball game in either recording or in real life, but i still ended up captured by all five minutes of this video. basketball seems hype.
Man I had a game on tape. Michael Jordan's 9th game as a pro. Bulls vs. Spurs... Johnny Moore had Wes Matthews On ICE SKATES!
Closest modern comparison.....Rondo!
The Scatman With a better jumper.

TBH I still don’t understand why his card is so expensive...
