Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3367469, member: 27"] I have enjoyed watching Syracuse play basketball for a long time. I have seen a lot of great players play for the Orangemen and have greatly enjoyed watching all of them play. But there is no player in my lifetime that I have enjoyed watching play more than Pearl Washington. His ability to break ankles, find weaknesses in defenses and make great plays was amazing. He did it without great athletic ability and he did it with an infectious joy that you can only see with a genius at work in his chosen media. There will be many more future greats playing basketball for Syracuse but there will never be another Pearl Washington. RIP #31! [/QUOTE]
