      Yeah, a minuscule slip can mean a world of difference. If we’re comparing Billy with Magic then it’s no wonder the comparison was far fetched. Greats are greats because they do everything they have to to be great. I remember Ralph Lawler who was being interviewed and saying the greats like Magic spent summers mastering something they perceived a deficient. Magic partied sure but you can’t deny the work ethic and Magic himself always said if I don’t have time, I’ll make time. Peace.

      Yes, you lost to a Syracuse team that not only had billy Owens, but Derek Coleman and PG Sherman Douglas as well. Might have been coached by Jim Boeheim, if I’m not mistaken. I’m sure you also remember Douglas went on to play in the NBA with the nets and the clippers. I was in my early teens at this time and I do remember thinking Derek Coleman was gonna be the best power forward ever. Instead, he turned into a basket case. Coincidentally, there’s even one of these videos on him as well. During that particular time, both the Midwest and the east produced a lot of good NBA talent.

      Regarding SU/Illini. That game was 89. We had a ton of talent and a loaded frontcourt but no real PG. Perimeter shooting was suspect too. Sherman D left the year before. Illini were a great team indeed and Henson a terrific coach.

Unluckily, you can't afford being naive. You need to take things seriously from the start. If you don't, you'll probably never succeed at high levels - that's what happened to Owens, and to several other prospects

    He could hoop but he never had the handle that Magic had....he reminded more of Barkley

    His main problem was , he couldn’t shoot. Under 70 percent from free throw line, and mostly shot 11 to 15 percent for threes early on!

    6:50 I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. So, I HATED the Warriors, because they KILLED the Sonics and Blazers. But, after the Mitch Richmond trade, NBA on TNT was right: It wasn't the end of Run TMC. It became "Tim-MARCIULIONIS-Chris," since Sarunas started to really burst onto the scene.

    The Magic Johnson comparison was unfair. His game was not the same. Like you mentioned he was a power forward. He would have had more success as a versatile power forward. Great video.

    I think if Owens had gone to UNC, it would have better prepared him for the NBA. UNC alumni every summer would hold pick up games and school youngsters on what it took to be a pro. Not to mention much stiffer competition where he would have to earn his spot. At least mentally, he would have been much more tuff.

      @mightymacdiesal12 That's true. Wonder if Kenny William's had went there if him and Billy could have co-existed.
