Myles

[zappaa]

You guys who say Myles can be better than Bailey never saw Bailey. The guy was 6’9 240 and could jump through the roof along with having a 15 foot jump shot. He was the most athletic guy his size in the country while also being highly skilled. Go back and check his records before spouting such silliness. I love Myles but he ain’t gonna be no Bailey.

Never saw Bailey?

I think you’ve forgotten what he was like. Go back and check the stats. He’s top 5 career in most of our stats from points to rebounds to steals to blocked shots to shooting percentage. And there was no 3 point line so doubling down was routine. There’s a reason he has one of just 3 retired numbers. I love Myles but Bailey was explosive.

Bailey is one of my all-time favorites, but as I expressed earlier...I’d take Hinson over him.
Myles absolutely has a chance to be better than James IMO, against a far more difficult schedule.

Hinson really wasn’t a stud until late in his career. So I take Bailey, without question. Myles has a way to go. If he surpasses Bailey in just a couple career stats then we’ll be awfully good.

If Myles stays through his RS Sr year and continues to develop (and we can make the postseason a couple times), he will definitely start climbing the record books. At this rate, though, Bailey's #8 ranking in FTs made is probably out of reach.
