Tinsley or Morris

[LutherBlue]

This thread makes my brain hurt. Tinsley was probably the second best player we've ever had behind only Grayer.

Lets wait till Morris can call Phog Allen, "just another gym" before we start comparing the two.

Agreed...baffling.

Sheer ball skills - Tinsley (and that is no knock against MM). However, teammate-wise, Morris. And let's not forget about the amazing A/TO ratio with Man Man. That said, I could watch highlights of JT all day - thanks for those who have included gifs in this thread!

Uhhhh Tinsley.... Come on guys. If Morris eventually becomes a dominant scorer with the same statistics and everything maybe you could tall about it.

If you think it's a conversation right now I think you're caught up in a couple stats that are nice but dear lord.... Tinsley was the man.

Someone post the video where Tinsley tossed up an ally-oop to a guy from before half court, and the guy that he threw it to was all the way back at the 3 point line. One of the sickest ally-oops I've seen.

You need to be introduced to Ricky Rubio

The A:T rational is extremely impressive, but in terms of this conversation you need more than just carefulness with the ball and I think Hoibergs system helps a lot with his assist numbers.

He doesn't even average 10 ppg guys!

Again, MM is a stud but in the context of all time ISU pgs.... It's not even close.

Tinsley was a freak. Thanks for the gifs and highlight videos. I'll re watch these everytime they are posted.

Alright - I'll put a target on my back -

Why isn't Hornacek in this discussion?

 

[Cy$]

This thread actually told me something: Who's been an iowa state fan since 2003.

 

[Cyientist]

I think Monte can get there. His style points won't be the same, but I don't see why MM won't be All-American potential. I've been really impressed with his and 1 finishes this year. Improve the 3 pt shot and he's the complete player.

 

[Luth4Cy]

As of now I think Tinsley is still the best ever, but Monte is closing in on him. Tinsley will probably always be the flashier guy, but Monte is starting to show the ability Tinsley had to take control of a game.

I may only be 26, but I have seen old videos of Hornacek, that dude could wizz a pass, but it is Jamaal for me. I feel in love with Iowa State Sports in 99-00.

Pick a player: TO/G = Turnovers/game SPG = Steals per game

A 3.3 RPG 10.7 PPG 5.4 APG 2.3 TO/G 1.7 SPG
B 2.9 RPG 7.6 PPG 7.6 APG .8 TO/G 1.4 SPG
C 4.5 RPG 12.5 PPG 6.3 APG 4.1 TO/G 2.6 SPG

 

[ClonesFTW]

Talk about recency bias... Cmon now, this isn't even close at this point. Its Tinsley, but to be fair MM has plenty of time to possibly prove he can score as well.
