All-Time Big East Team (according to someone on the internet)

Yeah, I would have taken Rip over Kittles any day any time.

Rip is absolutely better than Kittles and I really liked Kittles.

There’s not even a question imo

In my opinion Kittles was kind of overrated. A very good player, but not in the same class as Rip, Moten, or even Reggie Williams from Georgetown. I don’t remember him ever making a clutch bucket to win a game, or taking over and willing Nova to a big win. Very good, but not exactly great.

You can’t put anyone over Iverson. He was completely unguardable. His talent level was comparable with only a handful of players in history.

I'd have a real hard time keeping him off the list. Over the years I have gained more and more appreciation for the guy. He played hard, harder beyond what his body should have been able to handle. Hard not to respect that.

You definitely are a 100% certified UConn fan.

I would put Rip as my small forward over Ray.

Thank you.

I wonder how this team would compare to the other leagues over the same time frame? An ACC team would have a front line of Sampson, Duncan, and Laettner, with Jordan at the 2, with players like Worthy, and Brand on the bench. A team made up from schools not in the BE, or a major football conference would likely beat any conference's all star team. Hakeem, Drexler, Stockton, Malone, Aguirre, Tripuka, Ainge, Nash, Camby, West, Jameer, Larry Johnson, David Robinson, some of them might not even make a 12 man team.

I didn't love his game but I loved how tough he was. Nobody played harder and nobody took more of a physical beating, the guy is all heart.

Not saying this just because I am a Uconn fan, but I would but Uconns top 12 up against the top 12 from the rest of the big east and I would be pretty confident Uconn would stick with them and likely even win on Ray 3 or Kemba step back or Emeka jam.

A team of Ray, RIP, Butler, Emeka, Kemba, Drummond, Oakfor, Gordan, Moore, Gay, George and Marshal would be so .. "sick", ha.
