Absolutely shocked he never made a First OR Second All-League team.

Still can't vote no though.

Are we almost done with Druce prospects?

[jhb]

Planned to vote no, didn't realize how good a career he had
Yes as a Blazer

this was probably the biggest shock to me too. Also he only had 1 All-Defense as well.

Shocking for the overall career he had, but the software always seemed to discount his overall game.

Absolutely absurd he does not have enough YES votes.

Top 35 in all time WS

#1 in all time steals.. In League History

Top 15 in a number of other categories.

Need 2 more people. this is madness

[Majic]

damn travesty if he does not get in.

Absolute monster in 5.0
