Best Keady/Painter PG after Braden

[A. Ness]

Clearly he's the best PG since 1980 if not ever at Purdue, but who is 2-5? I don't remember anyone before Stephens since I was a baby. I'd go Stephens 2, and everyone else blah.


Who was your 2-5? You got LewJack, Cunningham, Porter Roberts, the blend of McKnight/Parkinson, Eric Hunter the non QB, who else?

I think he's very good. But Painter hasn't had many very good PGs if any. Same with Keady. I'm not sure he's any better than Stephens for example. But otherwise, point guard has rarely been a top spot for us. We've had what one guy you could call a pure PG who made the NBA in the Keady-Painter Era? I am skeptical Braden makes it primarily because he gives up too much in both size and quickness. If he were 6-3, he'd be a first rounder.

Tony Jones or Ricky Hall probably for me. One or both may have been 2 time DPOY in the league.
Lewis Jackson was the best pure pg but was always injured and played most of his career in pain. Matt called him the toughest Boiler ever. Porter was solid all over the court.
