I don't mean in person, I see all the Zion love.. he's great, but he doesn't look as great as Glenn Robinson did. Big Dog was the best I've seen. |

I only watch March Madness but the first three names that come to mind are Zion, Melo, and Steph |

Also Sean May was unfuckingstoppable in 2005. Fuck him still for that. |

Danny Manning was my first thought. |

For me it was hands down Hank Gathers. Last guy to lead the country in scoring and rebounding in college. He was an amazing athlete and player and it is a shame we never got to see what he would have done in the NBA. Couldn't shoot free throws was the biggest chink in his armor as well as a solid outside game which I believe he would have developed from 18 ft and in. |

Glenn Robinson is a great answer. I think Laettner is in my team photo but he's like the Tim Tebow of college basketball. |

Glenn is 6'-7" and 240lbs. Zion is 6'-7" and 285lbs. It would have been an interesting match up. |

Glenn could shoot from all over, he never had the supporting cast Zion has either. |

I'll say Walton or Ewing. Aguirre was great too. |

Joe Smith was outstanding as well. FF..before you Google Joe Smith, He was unstoppable in college, very mediocre NBA career. |

Nobody put up with more scrutiny and still constantly delivered like Laettner. I fucking hate the guy, but you have to admit how good he was. He was on the Dream Team. |

after the names brought up, I'm still sticking with Danny Manning. |

He was a massive failure in the NBA but Carmelo deserves to be on the list too. |

Glenn Robinson was pretty amazing. Too bad he hurt his back against Ostertag in the Kansas win. He looked off vs. Duke in his final college game. Tim Duncan was pretty great in college as well. Saw him live at the United Center in the Great Eight non-tournament they used to have. Will likely never be a player who plays all four years like he did ever again. |
