Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 5730617, member: 297"] The claim that GMAC is more of a killer than Melo is mythology. Melo achieved things at levels of basketball few do, and at levels of basketball Gerry wasn't even close to being good enough at to compete in. He accomplished those things with a lesser drive and will to win than Gerry exhibited? Again I'm glad so many are excited, but I fear the reasons for excitement are so grounded in irrationality that 1) GMAC is not possibly going to be able to meet expectations and 2) when he doesn't then cognitive dissonance will be so great people will struggle to face it. For one example, at no point in my lifetime except for this one and the fiction around it would Syracuse fans be excited about and think it's a good roster building strategy to add multiple guys from Siena's roster and recruiting. And yet here we are. [/QUOTE]
