Message: [QUOTE="NineOneSeven, post: 4707327, member: 871"] Hell of a career. Obviously what he did for Syracuse in 2003, one of the best runs ever, as a freshman. Tremendous stuff. Add in the intl accomplishments. An NBA top 10 scorer, at his peak an offensive force. Really remarkable. He’s a clear first ballot HoF guy for sure. But to say he’s top 30 all time…. Not sure how. Would love to see a list put together by those ranking him that high [yes opinions and subjectivity are a factor but objective data should be used to generate them]. Rankings get hard across eras especially factoring injuries in, but it’s why we love debate. Does he mean a lot to this board because of Syracuse? OBVIOUSLY. And I’ve been a big defender of his especially to Knicks’ friends of mine that have some strong feelings about his time there underwhelming (and I do my best to be clear it’s not Syracuse bias speak).
