Schick Legends All-Star Games – You can own a Piece of the Game
The NBA experimented by holding two Old-Timers All-Star games before their regular All-Star games during the 1957 and 1964 seasons. It would take another 20 years before the NBA tried again by bringing back several legends in 1984 for the first Schick (the sponsor) NBA Legends All-Star Game.
The 1984 incarnation featured players from the East Team that included: Pistol Pete Maravich, Oscar Robertson, Sam Jones, Nate Thurmond, Zelmo Beaty, Dick McGurire, and Bill Sharman.
The West featured: Rick Barry, Earl Monroe, Jerry West, Connie Hawkins, Dolph Schayes, and Dave Bing. The West barely beat the East by a score of 65-63. The oldest players in the game were Dick McGuire at 58 and Bill Sharman at 57. Pistol Pete was the youngest at 36.
The next year, the East would get their revenge by winning 63-53. The oldest player was senior citizen, Bob Davies at 65.
