Do you think his NBA talent would be respected on the same level today as that of Michael Jordan and Magic?

Does anyone know how the Celtics got the #2 pick? They had just won the title, had the best record in the league. How the heck did they get that pick?

He was before my time, caught the 30 for 30 on his story. Was just wondering to those who may remember him or watching him play, I haven't looked up any games yet, was it the 30 for 30 hype or was he the real deal?

I hated Boston. I couldn't believe they got Bias.

who knows ... there've been plenty of college guys who were "can't miss" ... bias was hyped a good bit, but certainly no more than several others since then who haven't panned out ...

He would have excelled with that lineup. Bird, Chief, McHale, DJ, Ainge, Bias.

You pick two of the greatest players to ever play the game to compare him to. Very tough. There are 15 players a year with Bias' talent level, and only a few in a career are anywhere close to Michael Jordan and Magic.

Thanks for answering my Question.


Bias wouldn't have been Jordan/Magic/Bird level because Bird was the stud on the Celtics. He'd have replaced McHale after a couple years but that lineup in Boston probably would have kept Detroit from winning championships and delayed Jordan's championships.

Maryland wouldn't have gone in the tank. Lefty wouldn't have been fired. Bias was as good as MJ in college so been interesting.
