Message: [QUOTE="superjohn, post: 2799223, member: 1522"] This is silly. We obviously accomplished more in college with the championships but in terms of impact on basketball they blow us out of the water. We have one all-time player in Ray, they have three. As for Petit, he's probably the most underrated player in the history of basketball. Only played 11 seasons then went on to try and make more money in the business world, all-star 10 of those seasons, 4x all-star game MVP, 2 time league MVP, career averages of 26.5 ppg 16.2 rbs. Petit was a contemporary of Russell and Wilt. You ask Russell his top handful of players of all-time and Petit is one of them. Also, I read the names on the jersey wrong in a previous post, they do have Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf on the roster, it's certainly not a 3 man team. Abdul-Rauf would have been Steph Curry like in today's game. [/QUOTE]
