[QUOTE="AirNeezy, post: 1627178, member: 747721"] Deron was a top 15 player in the NBA for multiple seasons, no Illini has reached the NBA heights he did. Longevity? Sure. Deron's ankles really betrayed him and robbed him of the second half of his career, but when he was at the top of his game, there was a legit argument that he was the best PG in the entire league. One of the nastiest crossovers I've ever seen, and his combination of strength and quickness was hard to beat. Honestly you could make the argument that Weber's motion offense didn't showcase his skills enough, which is crazy to think about considering he was still the 3rd overall pick! [/QUOTE]
