Top 5 Big Men All-Time in the Mountains (14th, 15th, 16th)?
new o Wrote:Too say May was not a team player shows how very little some people on this board know. He led the nation in scoring because he COULD. He shot 53% from the floor that year so before you make false accusations get your #'s straight. JR was a great player but do not try to put down someone else to justify your reasoning. You do realize May played with Marathon Oil for several seasons beating the likes of Maryland,Ole Miss and several other top teir teams duirng this time. By the way May averaged 19 ponits and 8 rebounds over those seasons. Too bad he never played any competition. I was a great team player but I do not think I would have been picked over Rex Chapman in a pick-up game although he did shoot the ball quite a bit. Like I said I saw both in their prime did you guys? Please answer this question. To answer a previous question if King Kelly were considered a big man there would be no debate, he was the greatest player in Ky. high school history....period!

Or how much they know.....Pikeville college stats show that Mr. May averaged 41.4 ppg in 86. Giving him 10 made free throws per contest (an estimate) leaves him with 31.4 on made field goals. If he shot 53 percent that means he took roughly 30 shots per ballgame, for arguements sake we'll call it 29. Show me the last "team player" that averaged 29 shots a ballgame and you have shown me the first one also.
