Smitty did not have a great game. I' remember much better games from him.
A lot of fouls were called in that game. I forgot that in those days players were responsible to raise their hand and acknowledge a foul committed.
Remember how Sylvester shot? Ball way behind his head.

The closest to Smitty's normal step back shot was at the 27:01 mark, but he shoots from about 15 feet from the basket. Go 30 seconds past that to the 27:36 mark and he hits another from behind the key.
