    A nice little list of mine of players who, if playing in today’s game and generation, would definitely thrive in the NBA. A couple are still balling, but I mean more of them in the prime and beginning of their careers.

    Kenny Anderson
    Michael Ray Richardson
    Jamaal Mashburn
    Vin Baker
    Shawn Kemp
    Cedric Ceballos
    Lamond Murray
    Rod Strickland
    Derrick Coleman
    Mitch Richmond
    Terrel Brandon
    Latrell Sprewell
    Allan Houston
    Chris Webber
    Grant Hill
    Penny Hardaway
    Darius Miles
    Sebastian Telfair (had he came with the NBA Age Limit, he would be solid)
    Steve Francis

    **I guess you could also say that this is a list of players who didnt pan out because of injuries, systems, off-court issues, attitude, etc.**

    I don’t really understand. Some of these guys like Richmond and Houston had very successful careers and would be the same level of star in today’s game.

    I think a player like elgin Baylor or Tiny Archibald were ahead of their time. So was Rick Barry who would have loved the 3 pt. line. Others include:

    Pete Maravich
    Spencer Haywood
    Calvin Murphy

    These guys to name a few would have thrived in today’s game even better than in their day.

    was definitely before his prime. he had that amazing high school career and that sick movie. had he gone 2 louisville i think petino would have had him more prepared 4 the league. also think gerald green could have waited a lil longer
