Coach...
Your BB program is boring.
Robert Horry is all you got.

Lol. Bama, missouri, and Tennessee have a combined 0 final four appearances between them. They can have their overall wins, I'll take the final four appearances and ncaa tournament success. I believe that's what sets your program apart on a national level and what people recognize lol. That's what you hang banners for, national success, not all time wins. What a joke. LSU is a better basketball program historically than all 3 of those teams. I guarantee you that if you ask the consensus of basketball coaches and analysts, they would agree and say the same as well.

Of course it is. Wins are great, but we have 2 NCs and 5 Final Fours despite the fact that we’ll come up short on most of these all time lists.

Actually I thought Alabama would be closer in comparison but nah

For the entire history of Alabama/LSU basketball competition Alabama has averaged winning more than 3 out of 5 games played....and you actually say LSU is the better program.....and y'all wonder why folks laugh at you.

4 more final 4’s


Lolz if you think being humiliated four times in the final four is a meaningful stat. And in one of them there were only 12 teams in the entire tournament. The NIT was still the premiere tournament in college basketball.

Hell, LSU couldn't even win an SEC tournament game with Chris Jackson, Stanley Roberts, and Shaquille fricking O'neal on the court.

Brag about baseball, where at least you've actually won something.

You can't (don't want to) see past your nose. "Winningest" means all-time wins. And just like with Florida, Alabama has beaten LSU HEADUP, over 60% of the time for like 179 games or 102 years....and you don't like it because we've done about the same to Florida...it's ok, I understand.

I have no idea why Alabama fans want to dive into the all time argument with LSU on a regular basis. I promise that no one gives a flying frick about Alabama's basketball tradition.


You can gladly have the all time series and those extra wins in conference during what, the 70's? lmao I will gladly take LSU's really deep tradition of NBA players, tournament runs, just as many SEC titles, etc.



Honestly Alabama's focus is on football (which is King in the SEC), and in that area it has no equal (as soon as any major Div 1 teams wins double digit NC like Alabama, then we will talk). Alabama has the second most on the field wins all-time (second to Michigan, that started their program 15 years before Alabama)......

That being said, Alabama's other programs are not bad, and do fairly well against the other conference teams. While Alabama has not won a NC in basketball, neither has any team other than Arkansas, Florida, and Kentucky.

LSU would trade everything they have done in basketball, for one more NC in football, as would just about every other SEC school that has not won a NC in basketball.

LSU fans, you can say that is not true, but you would be lying to yourself......

If I had to choose between being an LSU fan and having the clap, I'd ask for some time to think about it.

You named 3 players off of one LSU team. I bet you could name many more off the top of your head.

I can’t get any further than Robert Horry for Bama.

That’s the difference in the programs.

P.S.
ESPN to have a special on Pistol Pete coming up.

Not to jump in here, but that's a you problem Rohan

- TR Dunn played in the NBA for 14 years and was an all-time great defender.

- Derrick McKey was another great NBA defender, all-rookie team, played for 15 years in the NBA and averaged double digits in PPG over his career. He averaged 12+ PPG from 1989 to 1995.

- Antonio McDyess was an All-Star, played on the Olympic team, played in the NBA for 16 years, averaged a double-double in 1999 and 2001, averaged double figures every season from 1996 to 2002 and was one of the leagues great bench players from 2004 to 2011

- Mo Williams was an All-Star, played in the NBA for 14 years, averaged 13 PPG over his career and 15+ PPG 6 seasons in his career, started 525 games and scored almost 11,000 points

- Latrell Sprewell was a 4x All-Star, 1x Team All-NBA, scored 16,712 pts, averaged 18.3 PPG and played 13 years in the league. He averaged 20+ PPG 4 times and averaged 15+ PPG 12 times. He also choked a frickin coach.

That doesn't mention other guys who had long, solid careers and any person who pays attention to the NBA would know (Enis Whatley, JaMychal Green, Hollywood Robinson, Jason Caffey).

And then there is Robert Horry



So, my point is, if you are over the age of 30 and can't think of any Alabama players from the NBA, you don't really know dick about the NBA.

You left off the most "exciting" Bama basketball player. Don't piss him off because you never know what he might do.
