If Ben was couple inches taller his number might be in the rafters with Ray / Rip. The way he was able to shoot/score the ball at his size was incredible, so fun to watch especially when he was really cookin. As a Celtic fan he actually had me almost rooting for the Bulls in those epic playoffs. I was damn sure rooting for every shot he took to go in. He’s been a Husky of Honor 20+ years in my book, this just a formality. Congrats to BG, hopefully all the 04 guys are able to be there.

Yet Ray wasn’t a National champion! Ray couldn’t carry a team,he had to go to Boston and with KG and PP or Miami With LeBron. He was a good little player with Milwaukee and Seattle.

Although I don't really agree with the Ray slight, it is kind of funny our own Samson Johnson, who waxes poetic about everything, immediately had a negative to say about Ben in comparison to 2 of our greatest.

Ben Gordon, who was a dawg in the s16 as a soph and won a chip and a BET (that one was almost single-handedly) as a junior, then went 3rd in the draft and won ROY.

I called @superjohn Samson Johnson and it edited it automatically to Samson Johnson.

What did Samson Johnson say that was negative about Gordon?

Did he not call him rookie of the year?

After knowing you meant superjohn, he did try to call Cam Spencer the best offensive 2G in our program history.

There are as many great Huskies who can bring an instant smile to my face as there are great places to get (a)pizza in Connecticut. Fighting over who is better or best seems foolish to me.

Just showing there may be something against Ben is all. Cam Spencer was great for us last year. But Ben is Ben and it’s kind of a crazy statement to make when he exists after everything he did.
