Favorite BU Player of All-time?

[heybballfans]

what are you talking about granger one of most soft spoken stars in league that does not hog the ball and not trust his teammates. his teammates like him, so u are totally off base there. and it doesn matter if those guys had the 3, that wouldnt make them stronger and more athletic.

DRU don't know if CC is familiar with Milos or not, but his post mentioned Sean Harris, a Yuba player who will be joining us after he completes his mormon mission.

Oops you are correct...sorry I read to fast. Keep forgetting about Harris. OK then...refresh us/me about Harris CC if you would.

lol he was, dang that stinks. interesting, thanks for fact fish7! but still nba wasnt what it is today back in 1951, i think we all know that. so as far as he goes, im sure granger and hawkins both way better

Let's not forget about the Bradley grad who was a first round draft pick in the 90's and was once considered "the best basketball player in the world (outside of the US)" while in his prime -- Anthony Parker

Things must be pretty quiet on "flame boards". LOL!

Where would Phegley or JJ be if we had the 3 point shot when they played. Talk to me about how great Granger is when he becomes a true team player like Hawk was in the NBA. I heard from many players how Hawk was the perfect teammate. He could score but he was always looking for the player w/ the best shot. I am sure some of that was by design but I have not seen that w/ Granger & I know a lot of that is because he doesn't have a lot of talent around him.
I will give him credit for getting his act together and putting in the work that it takes to be a star in the NBA though because he was mislead by some people while at BU or he would have been one of the top 5 players to play here. The way it is he is only a quitter when it comes to BU

I hate to even respond to this because I have nothing but respect for Hersey's game and the way he carried himself. I was not around when Granger was here and have no notion of how good he was here. However, assuming he continues at the pace he is now, I already think he is a better NBA player than Hawk was.

Say it ain't so lake Camelot. Say it ain't so. BLASPHEMY!!!

Quick question: How many times did a Danny Granger team make the NCAA Tournament or an NBA Playoff game?

And The Hawk?! I rest my case!!!!!!!!!!!

[lake Camelot]

Well I just think Granger is a more well rounded player. Hawkins had a weakness that he wasn't a great ballhandler, but was small for a Off Guard. He made up for it with shooting great and leaping.

This thread is actually worthless.

There is no longer such a thing as "all-time".

College basketball was invented 10-15 years ago. And it's a floating 10-15 years. So 20 years from now, we'll have some crackpipe blowing hard on some dude that played 2 games and was shot/killed downtown Peoria over a pizza. But he was the best ever.

I think the thread changed from who is the favorite to who is the best. Still, IMO, I'll take the Hawk in either category.

I'm not sure about a monetary raise, but we could probably throw a couple more meaningless job titles your way.

No kidding...I was wondering if anyone was going to point that out. If its "the best" then I win hands down with Reggie Hall...

Lighten up folks...this should be a feel good thread. Its NOT about matching one BRAVE against another BRAVE...MY GOODNESS. Its about YOUR personal FAV....PERIOD.

And its NOT a "worthless thread" it just turns in to the same ole "your wrong and I'm correct" even though it a simple question about who your favorite alltime.... NOT the BEST...... BU player is.

There should be NO arguments.....just good feelings that BU has had SOOOOO many alltime favorites of all of us.
