Thanks for the comment and thanks for being a subscriber. I agree with you, Glenn was a legend in college. You mentioned box scores, I got a good laugh because I recently heard an older interview with George Brett, and he was talking about how he opened his newspaper and they no longer have box scores. I got a laugh out of that and to quote you - "My how times and technology has changed". Thanks again. Enjoy the rest of your summer.

Even though Glenn Robinson was one of the best players throughout his entire career both in College and in the NBA, i don't think he should not be considered a bust nor by being overlooked nor underrated at all. He should not be forgotten either. Glenn Robinson had a very good shooting range jumper along with his teammates, Ray Allen, and Sam Cassell. Yes Robinson, Allen, and Cassell the Big Three helped lead the Milwaukee Bucks to the playoffs in 2000-2001 year when his team competed in the Eastern Conference Finals against Allen Iverson and the Philadelphia 76ers. Despite the fact that Glenn Robinson and the Milwaukee Bucks came very close to winning the Eastern Conference Championship Finals, Why was this series being rigged? Why was the NBA not allowing the Milwaukee Bucks to be considered as contenders to compete in the NBA Finals regardless if the city of Milwaukee was a small town or a small market? To me personally, the Bucks should've been the favorites to go to the Finals verses the Los Angeles Lakers. This would've been a very good opportunity for Glenn Robinson The Big Dog. That would've been a great matchup of the Big Three in Glenn Robinson, Ray Allen, and Sam Cassell vs Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant if only that would've happened years ago.

Nice video! The early to mid 90s were rife with supremely talented forwards who ended up not completely fulfilling their potential. Think of it - Big Dog Robinson, Shawn Kemp, Derrick Coleman, Larry Johnson, Laphonso Ellis, Antonio McDyess, Grant Hill, Vin Baker, Chris Webber, Lionel Simmons, Billy Owens, Jamal Mashburn. Injuries, weight problems, attitude problems, etc. I'd argue that all of those guys with the possible exceptions of Mash and Webber would have better luck if you re-simulated their careers.

I have been watching a few different games and clips on those Bucks team and Big Dog but I think you summed it up well. He just lived up to his expectations. Many times players get hyped up and and don't live up to the hype or some exceed and go above. He just did what he was supposed to do and was very solid throughout his career. He was so predictable though that maybe that is why he is easily forgotten?

I used to think Hill was so great. I think he got too much hype, he wasn't the scorer or killer that MJ was, and was never going to be. As far as Robinson goes, despite going first and getting hype for averaging 30 ppg and 20 rpg in college, he didn't get the hype Hill did in the NBA. Also, I know Hill was a triple double machine and could handle the ball and pass the ball better than Robinson, but it didn't translate to wins. Grant Hill never made it out of the first round, whereas Big Dog made a conference Finals. I think that Grant Hill was perceived better because of his all round game, but doesn't matter if you're not winning, just like with Russell Westbrook. Turns out Jason Kidd had the better career of the 3 in that draft, despite not being a great offensive player. I'm surprised he got co rookie of the year because you would figure the media bias would make Grant Hill the runaway winner. Another thing I remember in my hometown after the draft, the sports reporter for a local news station mentioned the D Hill played on Robinson and said Hill was going to be the better NBA player.
