Len Bias Highlights

Len Bias might have been one of the greatest NBA basketball players ever. But he did not get the chance to play in the NBA. He was drafted in the 1st round 2nd overall in the 1986 NBA by the Boston Celtics. But never got a chance to play in the NBA because he died two days later from a drug OD. He is considered by some sportswriters to be one of the greatest players not to play at the professional level. People describe him as a larger more physical Michael Jordan. He was 6'8'' and weighed 210lb. Len Bias dies on June 19, 1986 at the age of 22.

I'd give my left nut for a Maryland #34 jersey with "Bias" on the back.

Why He Had To Smoke 'Crack?

In some parallel universe, Len Bias never died. He played in the NBA and fans got more than just Michael Jordan; they got a rivalry. In another parallel universe, Len Bias never achieved his full potential. Then in yet another one, he and MJ were teammates, each trying to overshadow the other and neither got a championship as a result.

But in this universe, Len Bias died at the young age of 22.

His "friends" failed him. End of story.

@washcloud Not fate. Stupid cocaine nose nigger.

All in all, poor Lennie might have developed to at least of a similar caliber along MJ (or an even bette one for that matter) - yet we'll simply never know due to what fate had coming for him. Personally though, and judging by their aggressiveness in style (and how "game-wise" MJ proved to be even in NCAA), my opinion is that he was, is and will continue to be the best that ever was in the game. Till of course a day comes that actually somebody will be born to become even better.

The thing is that Bias (unfortunately too) died at 22. MJ thrived till at least his late 30ies as a bball player. No overall comparison can be made to justify a...declaration such as "he WOULD have been better than Jordan". I don't also want to get into analysing what "better" means (1on1 match-ups don't say much), yet I'll add that various players never got to develop respectfully in the NBA, even though they were NCAA super stars full of potential (and vice-versa too).
