A rare video from 1964 showcases Game 7 between the St. Louis Hawks and San Francisco Warriors, featuring Hall of Famers Wilt Chamberlain, Nate Thurmond, and Bob Pettit. Chamberlain and Thurmond, both athletic and unusual for their era, dominated the court. Pettit, a versatile 6-9 forward nearing the end of his career, was an early example of a stretch-four with notable shooting and rebounding skills. Today, Pettit, at 93, is one of the oldest former NBA players, alongside 94-year-olds Richie Guerin and Cliff Hagan, while Bob Cousy is the oldest at nearly 98.
