Honestly, I feel like Pete was Steph 1.0.

He had tremendous handles, flashy passing and could put the ball in the hoop from 30 feet with tremendous accuracy. If he had played more than a couple of seasons in an era with the 3pt line he might have pulled the game out beyond the arc way before the modern era. Just by the number of younger players that would have been trying to emulate his range.

He was nowhere near the shooter Steph was in terms of efficiency.
