    I remember that Georgia Tech team in 2005 Jarret Jack, BJ Elder, Bynum and Ismail Muhammad, everybody in that starting line could dunk crazy! All games was crazy.

    I look at Bynum as a success story. He was an undrafted, 5'10, shoot first pg that had an 8 year nba career including a game were he scored 26 points in one quarter, which I'm pretty sure is a Pistons record, that's amazing to me.

      Absolutely. This guy went undrafted, was undersized and didn't even have that prolific of a college career, and was able to stick in the league for a while and become a solid role player. I don't see his growth as stunted at all.

    I remember seeing him on Preps:Chicago Hoops back in the day on Fox Sports. That’s how i found out about Eddy Curry too. Will was solid. Being from Detroit, i got the chance to see him play for the Pistons. Will the thrill. I remember him being on that Georgia tech final four team too.
