  • The Human Highlight Film with 32 points (12/23 FG) and 4 rebounds against Kentucky Wildcats team with Sam Bowie (18 points, 8 rebounds, 4 blocks). Nique was flying in this game, meanwhile Bowie played great defense and was really good on offense.
    Phenomenal NCAA game from the 1980/81 season (Indiana with Bobby Knight coaching and Isiah Thomas playing won the title that year)...
    Kentucky won the game 71:68 in 2OT.

    Dominique was definitely the man. However, I think Bowie gets an unfair view and narrative from a sports historians and fans. He was actually a really great player. If it wasn’t for the injury, who knows what might have been.

      His body was pretty gangly, I don't know if it was designed to hold up under any scenario.

    #10 Vern Fleming for Georgia was smooth too. He went on to have a nice NBA career.

    Everyone knows about Dominique, so I'll leave Dominique right there! Hugh Durham may be the first SEC coach to recruit NYC, and that team may be the only one in SEC history with an all-New York City backcourt, with Vern Fleming and Eric Marbury. And Vern Fleming might be THE most accomplished, yet unsung point guards ever to come out of New York: SEC First Team, Final Four, Olympic Champ, 12 years in the NBA! On Sam Bowie, that game tells you why he should not be considered a bust! Dude's game was THAT NICE! Made the Olympic Team as a freshman, came back after two and a half years hurt to lead Kentucky to a Final Four! That's not a bust, folks! And I knew Dirk was known for defense, but I forgot how much ups he had! He banged it on Vern.....!!!!!!!

      Don't forget Tennessee's Ray Mears recruited Bernard King and Ernie Grunfeld out of NYC before that. Enjoyed the post. Vern was incredible player. Interesting that Georgia made Final Four the year after Nique left. I was never a fan of Nique, although IMO he's the best dunker ever and a good guy.
