I once talked about the most bizzare sporting event. Right at the Rosemont Horizon. A upstart kind of pro basketball league calling itself the ABA. The Chicago entry coached by Joey Meyer. I think this is going back about 18 years ago. I took my son & his friend. The place could hold like 12-15000 I think. There were about 50 people in the stands. Ray Meyer was one of them. It was very sad to watch Ray as he watched Joey coaching in virtually an empty stadium. |

I was eating at that Red Lobster on Harlem around Montrose and there were three guys from that team at the table next to me. One of them was Dallas Comegys. |

I never got to watch him much before his brief injury ridden NBA run. I am just going off of things I have read about the guy. But wasn't he widely considered for a period of time to be the greatest player in the world? As great is Dirk is/was, he was never considered the best in the world. |

well again, not seeing Sabonis in his prime...  it is kind of hard to say though since Dirk is obv very athletic for a big and Sabonis was basically trapped in quicksand but i'd have to go Dirk. Sabonis seems like he was a better passer tho |

Better passer, better post player, better defender in the paint. Not as good a shooter but still a good shooter and excellent for his size in a time when it wasn't used like it is today. It was always frustrating to just get glimpses of his game in a time with no internet and little cable coverage of international sports. You'd see him just at international competitions once a year, maybe, and he was a freak of nature. You look at that youtube I posted before and think, well, Robinson was just a kid. But, Robinson is only 8 months younger than Sabonis. They were both about college senior level players and played to a stalemate. Robinson went for 20/7 with 4 blocks. Sabonis was 16/13 with 4 blocks. Sabonis blew his achilles the next year and when they met in 1988 it was Robinson 23/12 and Sabonis 13/13 just coming off the injury which people think they rushed him back which led to all his subsequent issues. Still, Robinson blew into the NBA averaging 24/12 as a rookie. An uninjured Sabonis would have been on par with that, I think. Also, getting pushed by NBA talent every night would have just made him better. He was rated as well or better than any young big man in the US in college in the 1980s - Ewing, Robinson, Sampson. He dominated Sampson in an exhibition at UVa. Sabonis is a classic what could have been story. He just arrived about 10 years too soon. |

People who call it "gravy" probably call a pizza a "pie," don't you think? "Sugo" is what you put on your pasta, right, Jimmy? |
