jtram Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 1.N.Bellard and M.Olliver 2. A.Daniels and R.Anthony 3. A.Miles and M.James Just to name a few, question was brought up in conversation and wondering what everybody on here thought....
badndn Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 It all starts and ends with any tandem that Oliver was a part of. End of discussion. For those that didn't get to see him play won't completely understand, but his records and his teams records stand for themselves.

puddin tane Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Olliver and whoever..not even close...wish they'd a had 3 pointers with him...
Guest Cardinalrule Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Olliver and whoever..not even close...wish they'd a had 3 pointers with him... Oh, I wouldn't say it isn't even close. Sewell and Robinson were incredible. Where is Alvin Brooks? But, it is hard to argue that Oliver and bellard aren't the best
puddin tane Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Points-------------------Olliver-2518 , sewell 1496 Feild goals------------- Olliver 1130, sewell 627 Oliver-1st all time in steals and games played, 5th all time in assists
McDonaldGymRat Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Someone help me out here. Wasn't Sewell a 2 year juco player? If so then career stat comparisons are apples to oranges.
puddin tane Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 well hell, Rat..if stats mean nothing...why keep em? give everybody a ribbon
McDonaldGymRat Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 well hell, Rat..if stats mean nothing...why keep em? give everybody a ribbon Come on man. Is that really what you got from my post?
jtram Posted January 19, 2013 Author Posted January 19, 2013 Points-------------------Olliver-2518 , sewell 1496 Feild goals------------- Olliver 1130, sewell 627 Oliver-1st all time in steals and games played, 5th all time in assists Anthony Miles is number 1 in games played

Double his stats and you get damn near 3000 points and a little over 1250 field goals. Just because you play a lot of games doesn't make you great
Guest Cardinalrule Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 well hell, Rat..if stats mean nothing...why keep em? give everybody a ribbon Come on man. Is that really what you got from my post? He is being a dim bulb

He is being a dim bulb +1 The silly part is I agree that the list starts with Oliver. I can still see that Sewell jumper like it was yesterday though.

For those that didn't get to see him play won't completely understand, but his records and his teams records stand for themselves. How many points would Mike have scored if there was a three point shot? 3000? And he could completely take over a game. I remember a game in McDonald gym (against La Tech, I think) where they were double and triple teaming him, denying him the ball. Tubbs had him go just stand by the scorers table, while the rest of the team played 4 on 3. LU won 120-80. Damndest thing I ever saw.
coachacola Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 The 1980-81 team had Alvin Brooks and Mike Oliver starting with Terry Long coming off the bench. Terry Long averaged 10 points a game but I think most of his shots would be 3-pointers today. This team beat Missouri in the first round of the NCAA tourney. Mike Oliver 22.3 ppg Alvin Brooks 11.7 ppg Terry Long 10.0 ppg http://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/lamar/1981.html

Guest Cardinalrule Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 This thread is depressing................
Guest NorthoftheBorder Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Someone help me out here. Wasn't Sewell a 2 year juco player? If so then career stat comparisons are apples to oranges. My memory says he was here 3 years, spent 1 year at Florida JUCO!
