Jimmer #3. Bradley don't belong. Not close. He was very impactful as a Frosh.

Who do you replace Bradley with instead?

A lot of very good players over the years. In the last 10 years: Tyler, KC & Yo.

Tyler Haws has more points than Jimmer. More complete player. IMHO

Maybe replace Bradley with another Center who was a McDonald's All-American and won 2 NBA rings?

Swap Ainge and Jimmer. Remove Bradley and replace with Tyler. But many others

Bill Walton has seen them all and played against Cosic. He says Kresimir Cosic is #1.
