lots of good pub on this Duke guy back in the 90s and he played very hard and did some things well but stats were pedestrian and really no pro career to speak of

Ed O'Bannon- not saying he was an overrated college player but his game did not transition well to the next level


The one that was always crazy to me was Scotty Thurman, who played against O'Bannon in the 95 championship game. He was 3x all-sec and was supposed to be a great player at the next level. He wasn't even drafted and never made the NBA.

only one correct answer..... Ben Simmons


Gotta agree, he did always fill up the stat sheet but after the game I was always left thinking something was missing. And I watched pretty much every minute of every game he played here. There were 2 maybe 3 games that whole year that I thought, that's the guy I was expecting.

I don't know if you are trolling me or not. But I'll at least play along. I have short term memory issues, but I will go out on a limb and say no. And that may only be because of how much of his career his ankle injuries hindered him. He was great in college, and had a very promising NBA career, that at times was a solid career. But those ankle infections nixed an all time vote from me.

Big boy had some soft hands though. Who was the other big on that team? They also had Rodney Hood didn’t they?

You do know
1. College is not the NBA
2. Point guards job isn’t necessarily to score 30 a game especially when you have Morris Peterson and Charlie Bell on your team
