Yes, you can list the stars on the team and it sounds impressive - things like giving out career stats or NBA success for players like Pearl, DC, Seikaly, etc. It is impressive. But it doesn't tell the whole story either. Most of these top players weren't in the same class. Siekaly was a below average center for his first two and half years. Thompson is criminally overrated by Orange fans. And the rampant excusing of excusing poor FT shooting, like it's separate from the evaluation of the overall quality of the team is baffling. On the contrary, FT shooting should be used as an indicator of the overall strength of outs In another 10 years the idea the story about the '12 team having the McD AA Rak on the bench and the first round draft pick of MCW as the fourth guard will grow more legendary to this generation.
