Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 2389550, member: 780"] Look, I know this is crazy. When I watched MD in the first game, I thought "Leo Rautins?" But in the last two games, especially TSU, a bizarre thought crept into my head as I tried to grasp a fleeting image of who it was MD reminded me of when he does certain things. That scramble on the floor after the ball that ended up as a SU fast break is a case in point. MD shows flashes of Larry Bird. Of course, he isn't as tall and he is no where near the shooter Bird was, But Bird was always seeing things and doing things that others could or did not. Now I recognize that Bird was one of the all-time greats, so comparing MD to him is beyond a stretch (maybe even "ridiculous"). But a couple of those MD plays and passes and I was thinking, "Where have I seen that before." [/QUOTE]
