No love for Shea Cotton?

PG: Mo Williams/Ronald Steele
SG: Earnest Shelton
SF: Kennedy Winston
PF: Chuck Davis
C: Erwin Dudley

I think those are your best at each position. If Ronald stays for four years, I would say that would give him the edge over Mo.

Some of my favorite players that wouldn't go on this list include Antoine, Emmett Thomas, and Reggie Rambo (if for no other reason, his name is among the best in the history of the sport).

I'm having trouble seeing how yall think Mo was better than Steele.

Let's look at stats of Mo's last season vs. Ron's this year.

MO RON
ppg 16.4 14.3
FG% .409 .415
3pt% .317 .412
ft% .838 .892
ast/to ratio 1.30 1.59
steals 36 45
mpg 35.8 38.4

I can see how they're close, but I don't see how Mo was better than Ron.

I agree 100%. There's no doubt in my mind that Ron is a better "pure" point guard than Mo ever was. Mo was a terrific talent, but he looked to score first most of the time, and he had lapses in his judgement. Ron's a better shooter and he could score a heck of alot more if he really wanted to. They're both very talented, but I'd have Ron as my starting point guard.

Points aren't everything. Steele has a better TSP (true shooting percentage = sum of 3-FG, 2-FG, FT percentages). Steele's assist-to-turnover ratio is higher, but he almost constantly held the ball for 40 minutes...even the best will get a few steals on them with the ball in his hands as much as Steele's. Steele is a better defender in my opinion; Steele did have nine more steals than Mo.

Plus, Steele is just a sophomore and is getting better every game it seems.

The reason Mo left early, was the same reason McDyess did, they had HUGE NCAA tournament games........and they made their big splash, and were gone. So, you can say bye to Tyrus Thomas, Joaquim Noah (sp?) for sure, and maybe Big Baby (but i doubt it), Al Horford, and maybe even Greene from Florida......

Fair Comparison

.. Plus, Steele is just a sophomore ..

So was Maurice Williams. He only played 2 years at Bama.

.. and is getting better every game it seems.

Generally yes. He's had some not so good games, but usually those were against better teams. He really improved in 2006, looking to score much more.
