Your Team's All-Time Single Best Player

Anthony Davis. One could argue Dan Issel but I think AD takes it
Carolina’s all time greatest is also the worlds greatest player EVER.
Might be Havlicek, but hard for me to pick a guy I've never seen play (in college). My criteria will not take NBA success into account as I'm thinking it should have to do with what he did for his college team.
Between Jim Jackson and Greg Oden for me. I do think Oden was a more dominant college player in his one year, but not by much so I'll give JJ the nod for playing 3 seasons.

I suggest that UK's best was Issel. He is still the leader in points and way up there in rebounds. He was an incredible shot to be a big man.
Carmelo Anthony. But it's not by as wide a margin as one might think.

Darryl Griffith or Wes Unseld
The future is Donovan Mitchell though.
Terry Rozier’s making a name for himself also.

Rick Mount or Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson. Eras and contemporary rules are too different to truly pick one over the other, IMO.
Most Talented: Michael Finley/Devin Harris/Wes Matthews
Most Accomplished: Frank Kaminsky
Easy answer for DePaul.
When you have the greatest basketball player to play the game in it's first 50 years you gotta stick with him even 70 years later.
George Mikan.

George Mikan.
I went strictly by what they did at OSU. If I counted NBA, I'd move Michael Redd up a few notches.

Love Aguirre and had season tix his last year, but he's not in the same company as Mikan. Guy is considered the best player of the first half of the century and he led DePaul to the 1945 NIT title, our only National Championship.
Based strictly on college career, would you say he's UNC's GOAT? I'd go w/ Hansbrough ahead of him, maybe Ford, too.
The question was kind of vague. I went with overall greatest player. While I agree, Hansbrough & Ford had better “college” stats, the overall best player is & was MJ.

Oh I don't doubt he is. For me in these discussions, I usually refrain from using guys I've never seen play. Guess I would go Havlicek if I didn't need to see them.
