I just wanted to let it be known to whomever that true fans of this game appreciated Glenn Robinson . He was a remarkable basketball player , capable of playing all aspects of the floor . The " problem " with Glenn was a lack of stability within the milwaukee org and surronding glenn with qustionable talent . Imagine drafting a lebron james and surronding him with the Benoit Benjamins of the nba . It was a difrent day and a diffrent time . Teams werent as savy as they are now and theyve learned from watching talent like Robinson not be surronding with the right players . Ray Allen was a cancer on that team and really worked his butt off to isolate Glenn out of the offense ..Vin Bakers aka the black hole was no diffrent . Glenn was always playing with guys that had to " get theirs " and getting theirs didnt mean just getting theirs , it meant getting as much as they could . Glenn suffered ...his carrer suffered . But to the true fans that could read between the lines , watching that turn around post up jump shot was as good as it gets . You just knew when glenn got that ball in post up position from literally ANYWHERE on the floor it was going to be money and he very rarely let ya down . Even the shot against phylly wasnt a let down , man that was a good shot in and out ..cant complain ...99 times out of a 100 that shot drops . It is what it is ..dont like grob ?? cool , thats on you ..I could read between the lines and i got to watch one of the best basketball players ive yet to see play this game and enjoyed every last minute of it ..He wasnt a disapointment to me ..i could see whats going on .Glenn, you were a great pro playing for an organization that lacked vision ..thanks for all the memories ..more people understood the situation then people might think .i dont know anyone that didnt respect the big dog and most people that claimed not to like him simply couldnt read between the lines and see how grob was put on a very short leash in milwaukee .. Dude could drop 35ppg as a pro night in and night out but it wasnt going to happen with Ray Allen breaking off plays and taking bad shots , or with vin baker trying to shoot thru tripple teams ...the irony of those that perputrated selfish offense in miwlaukee and NEVER got called on it , but the one guy that stayed commited to playing team ball was the guy that took the slack ??? dont make much sense to me but it is what it is ...grob is a legend to those that know this game . i couldnt care less what the rest say they simply dont know .

I went to Purdue, and really liked Glenn Robinson. I think he was very misunderstood, and although I don't know much detail about the initial contract dealings, I know that he really wanted to be the best contributor to his team that he could. Probably wanting to win so badly and probably feeling that Ray Allen had an aloof way about him, I could see Glenn talking not so well publicly about Ray. That's too bad, because it gave him a locker room reputation possibly not deserved. In '94 at Purdue, he was the most exciting college player since Jordan, no doubt about it. I sure would like to hear about where he is NOW. In Gary, IN? Hopefully well, and giving back to youth or something. Again, thanks for the article. Thanks very much for this article.
