I have an accustats videotaoe of Cisero playing 14.1 against Mike Zuglan. It's a player review with Weenie Beenie and Mike Zuglan. Cisero doesn't shoot much, but he does have a couple of AWESOME safety battles in that tape - run 20 or so at one point - but the highlight of the match is a textbook 109 from Mike.
Cisero wasn't playing much at the time, and it showed, but he was still a tough customer.
Az member Mr. Lucky is Cisero's nephew and has a lot of great stories and inside information about him.
Cisero was MY teacher - and I believe that he also worked with my good friend Tony Robles - as well as many other young players.

In addition to the match that Blackjack mentioned, here's another one from Accu-Stats. I have them both and I like this match a little better.

Charles Ellis was Cisero's mentor and teacher. Charles was most likely one of the greats Black players that ever lived. However, there is only one known photo of him, and it is not clear, and sorry I can not remember where I saw it.
Enjoy!!!!!!!!
Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

In the second of Manwon's pictures he's shown shooting left-handed (or the negative was reversed), but he was one of the best ambidextrous players ever.

There's also footage of Murphy playing Lassiter 14.1 that I recorded from espn classics and converted to dvd. I converted the other two accustats vhs to dvd as well (Zuglan and Dunsmore)
