I keep hearing he was more explosive, jumped higher, had a better range jumper and was better defensively than the greatest ever.


I need to know the truth. Youtube won't tell me!!!

I remember len well, he was a tremendous athlete, but as purple mentioned, more along the lines of a dominique larry nance type of athlete, He would have been a great player, but jordan was from another planet...

According to a youtube video, he manhandled MJ when UNC played Maryland.

That guy who took money off the backboard was Earl "the goat" Manigault who did that at 6"3 -4

How old are you? Just cause I remember Len Bias doesn't mean I am old. Celtics never ever recovered from Bias death.
