I have to go with Ernie D - 30 foot, behind the back skip passes to a fast breaking Marvin Barnes!  Even when you saw the guy, it was hard to believe some of things he did - very, very exciting - he made plays that haven't been seen since.

Pistol Pete, probably the best shooter ever.  Crazy shots all the time, 30 feet from the basket, defenders draped all over him, and half the shots went in!  You couldn't take your eyes off of him.

I have to give an honorable mention to the guy from some G5 team from the Midwest that played SU in the dome about 7-8 years ago, sorry I can't remember his name or the team.  The guy flew in for monster, monster dunks about 5 or 6 times.  A couple seemed like he was going horizonal 2 feet above the basket - have never seen anything like it.

I also like the Calvin Murphy choice, but not the MJ one.  People are mixing up MJ's college career with his pro one.  If Lew Alcindor has already been picked, then I might go with David Thompson for my all-time college team, but like Lew, I remember David as being a great player but not especially exciting; which is the criteria.
