No doubt. The Final 4 in 81 and 86 were great. The funny thing about this story is that 86-87 team made it to the Elite 8 without Sabonis. I'm pretty sure that was in Cincy versus Indiana when Knight pounded the scorer's table and broke a phone. Joel Hillman hit from the corner to advance the Hoosiers to the Superdome.

Long story mixed with Gonzaga signing Sabonis' kid now. But if you read it to the end, you see Dale never stopped recruiting for LSU. No matter which department.

Wow what an incredible story. I was a huge Sabonis fan. It's a shame that by the time he came to the US he basically had no knees.

Great story.

We could've had fricking Saba? Holy shite how did I not know this? That dude was Russian David Robinson, only he could shoot threes, make no look passes, and had a killer mean streak. Saba came over to the NBA with a bad back, bad knees, and bad feet and still was an all star. My God frick you Reagan.
