Yes, however, you will likely have some people chime in on old players despite them playing in a significantly easier game (Cannon, Casanova, Maravich, etc).

Easier game? How about tougher game when guys weren’t pussies like you. CaptainPussy yeah that’s it.

“Easier game” is sorta debatable. Regardless there are a lot more basketball players in the world than pole vaulters.

He was 6’5-6 legitimately and handled a ball better than anyone you’ve ever seen. None compared to him then and now. He would be able to cross over and they wouldn’t call carrying.
Maravich
Damn the thoughts and images he created were and still unprecedented. He can only be imitated. He is the originator.

Pistol Pete Maravich
His NCAA all time scoring record “while playing at LSU” will never be broken.
