The best at getting to the hole as a Marquette player was Butch Lee. The guy was unstoppable. That is the platinum standard for Marquette.

I'd put George Thompson ahead of Butch even tho' he was a forward at 6'2"

I really do not pay attention to who said what, so you are right I am not keeping up.

Brute Force and Butch are the two best ever. I give the nod to George but a very narrow margin. Both had exceptional bodies and body control for going to the basket.

As for HC, I think he is going to be a really, really good college player. Way too early to know beyond that. Thing I like best about him is that he is a basketball player at the core. He is smarter on the court than most young guys.

I like the Manu comp, but I'd reach back and (forgetting the left-handed-ness) say Sydney Moncrief.  Big guard, slow shot, excellent at the rim, finds a way around, over or through guys.

Lefties have an advantage because defenders usually tend to shade to the offensive players right hand, so the left handed finish is often a surprise.  Not saying he doesn't need to develop his right, but saying it's not as important for lefties with their natural advantage. 

I think the ceiling is higher than anyone else here seems to think... I think the ceiling is Westbrook... but I'd be happy with Manu or even Wes type NBA performance.
