Who is the greatest Dayton Mens BB Player ever? I think it is an interesting discussion.
For me, statistics are an important part of the discussion, but the way I like to look at it is in this way: If you line up all of the possible players and give me first pick for my team to play in today's college BB landscape, who would I choose first?
I was born in 1969, so I might underappreciate some of the earlier era players, but having seen what I have seen in my lifetime, I choose Obi. He is obviously a great individual talent, but he has the rarer ability to make everybody on the team better with his court-vision, good decision making and great passing. He is so multi-skilled that if teams game-plan against him, he kills them by sharing the ball at just the right moment.
