I loved 70s basketball. Seeing McGinnis there reminds me of what a great player I, and lots of others, thought he would be. I remember years later reading an article to the same effect, with a title, and I think I remember it, "Oh, What Might Have Been." Yes, he made the HOF eventually for his ABA years, but he had all-time great potential IMO.

I suppose you could say something similar about Thompson, although he had somewhat more success than McGinnis and didn't IMO fall as far short of his potential. I saw him live as a sophomore. He went for something like 40 against a great Maryland team. He could leap out of the building.

And here it is.
