Tim Duncan.
Staying with one team is some strange criteria. Was John Stockton somehow better than Karl Malone? Were the careers of Patrick Ewing and Hakeem devalued because they didn't stay where they were drafted? Is Reggie Miller better than Kareem

No it does not a make one better, it is just a unique thing that does not happen in this day in age

I think moving to a better job is great, but their is something to be said about loyalty

Wade and simply because his talent level was something never seen before at MU. Watching him play at MU and for Heat, especially early in his career, was something to see. Remember watching SportsCenter and he was top ten play of the day almost daily for the Heat. Best part was many of those plays were on D side of the ball or unreal pass.

Am a big Wes fan and JFB is hard not to cheer for. Truthfully, it is hard to cheer against any of them.

I concur.  Plus, Wade ultimately does more for MU than any of the other guys.  He has won 3 rings, is a sure fire Hall of Famer, which means he will be relevant to the "everyday basketball" fan for decades to come.  Love Wes, but he won't have that impact outside of a smaller geographic area.  He'll be remembered like most players in towns where they remember the guy fondly as a nice player, good dude, but not as a national level player.  Wade got to a point where people took sides with him, mostly because he played with LeBron, but he was talked about all the time and the halo effect for MU is always a good thing.

Do all NBA teams announce the college the starting players are from or just Chicago? Cause it's pretty cool that people on Miami and Portland are gonna look up MU after hearing Wade or Wes's names... I think it's fair to say that the majority of Chicago has a rough idea about marquette when it's announced for jimmy.
