Isaiah Thomas really should have been on the Dream Team. One of the more underrated players in NBA history. And Laetner over Shaq? lol

Some people think that Laettner was selected as a nod to college basketball and as an incentive to get Krzyzewski to be an assistant coach (has to be one of the toughest last names to spell).

Whatever one may think of Laettner (and all those "cake-eaters" from Duke :P), you can easily argue Laettner was the best college player in history.   Shaq hadn't really been THAT good in college on my recollection (course I'm kind of old so my memory could be off).

Laettner's college career was phenomenal, however it's still shocking that they didn't pick Shaq. Shaq said in interviews that he was jealous and pissed with the decision. I don't think Hakeem was a US citizen, but if they selected Hakeem and Thomas on that team..wow.
