Jon Brockman?

Went to High School with Jon. Fucking rad dude. Played in WESCO where all his competition was 6 foot to 6 foot 2 white dudes. Throw the ball in the post and dunk almost every play. I’m surprised how well it translated to college.

I interviewed Brockman once when they were on the road and he had just gotten to his hotel room. He seemed like a cool dude.

I wondered if Todd MacCulloch should make this list, his wiki page says that he averaged 25 pts 16 rebs in college. If that were true (it's not), he'd make this team.

He was borderline great his senior year.

I’d probably move Nate off the Top 5 (if building a semi legit team) as you need a bigger 2nd guard

Both Nate and Isaiah played much bigger than their physical size plus they both had heart. Not to mention that Nate was a freak of an athlete and Isaiah was an above average athlete as well. That backcourt would give other teams fits on both ends on the court.

I’m not disagreeing with you in that they were both special players

But just as athletic ability is a prerequisite, so is size and you effectively have 2 sub 6 foot guards. There are tons of challenges there.

Go back and watch the 1 seeded team play Louisville that was extremely long all over the see the inherent problems that size causes when you don’t have it

They both would cause many challenges for opponents as well. For myself the positives of both players far outweigh the negatives originating from their physical height.

James Edwards >>> Welp

I never saw James Edwards play at the UW. I went with the players that I saw play at the UW firsthand.

James Edwards was a very good player at the UW https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/james-edwards-1.html . And I have no issues with anyone placing him in their all time Husky starting 5.

I saw him play but I was about 5 years old and barely remember

I really enjoyed watching Terrance Ross play. Rare combination of skill and athleticism. He could play a lot of positions well and could pretty much do it all. Not sure who I'd bump for him, though.

That dude was legit. Good player. Probably not too 5 though.
