Chucky, Swift or Khon?

[Supersurch]

Who is your pick as a better point guard when they played or is playing for USF?  Why?

I'm going to pick Swift.  I know you all think I'm crazy, but this year Brian has amazed me.  I pick Swift over Chucky, because I think Swift holds the edge on shooting.  Now, I'm comparing Swift's shooting to Chucky's shooting when he played here.  I know Chucky's shots have gotten better these days.  Also, I think Brian's defense is better.  And Brian has more strength.

I'm going with Kohn...  i never saw Chucky play as a Bull, i came in Lambs last year, the year after Chucky left.

Swift has been excellent... great at creating his own shot, good vision and good shooter.

Kohn played on 2 broken legs... was a 4 year starter... had UNCANNY vision, and was a true leader in every sense of the word.  All time leader in assists at USF.  He is my favorite player that i have watched, although i know i'm going to love watching Collin Dennis for the next 3 years and change.

Tough choice between Atkins and Kohn, b/c I respect so much what Reggie did for USF. He left it all on the floor for Greenberg's teams.

However, Atkins  helped his team win a couple of post season games with arguably 'less' talent.

These two guys are miles above anybody else who has played at USF.

You had to watch Atkins to really understand what he brought.  My goodness the guy is playing in the NBA and the other two were never close to NBA material.

Kohn was a warrior, as Cyber said Reggie left it on the court.  What he lacked in athleticism he made up in headiness, and toughness.  His injuries really prevented us from seeing the best of Reggie his final two years.

Swift has had an amazing senior year.  This is what many of us were expecting from him for years.

However Atkins brought an intangible to the Bulls that no one expected, it was speed.  The guy was fast as lightning on the court, and he would press that ball up the court so fast that often he was down the court before the opponents could set their defense.  Atkin's amazin speed prevented teams from keying on opponents and he was able to score so many transition buckets or assist on transition buckets with his up tempo pressing style of offense.  Swift, and Kohn played within the game, they are/were key components of the offense but they didn't/don't make the offense tick like Chucky did.  Again, like Cyber said, Chucky's style allowed us to win many games that we were often far less talented then the opponent because of his speed, dribbling and shooting.  I remember him once taking an in-bound pass after the opponent scored, dribbling it so fast up court past the opposing PG and the opponents post players, and in for a lay-up before the other team set in their defense.  It went from what looked like a half-court set to a fast break lay-up as Chucky just blew past everyone on the court.  He use to do that all the time.

That was Chucky and why he's playing in the NBA.  He has a dynamic to his game that is and was unequalled.   I love all three, but Chucky could change the flow of the game with his abilities the other two never had that ability.  They had to wait for their opportunities come to them instead of creating them like Chucky.

not even close

Chuck hands down - best PLAYER ever at USF.  Not only would he beat the defense for easy lay ups but his ability to beat the D upcourt also led to a lot of spot up 3's from the top of the arc.  He really was a good shooter, to me just as good as Swift.  Chuck was also clutch, he  hit a lot of big baskets for us, more so than the other two.  (Well except for  those FT's in the NIT....)

Mavin Taylor (a true PG but a true THUG!)

Chucky Atkins

Reggie Kohn

Brian Swift

You got it right Omni-  Marvin was the best as USF.  To bad he had all the off-court problems.  I watched Marvin make more clutch shots in the waining moments of games it was incredible.  Now if you are talking a career at USF it has to go to Chucky.  He had us sooo close to the final four of the NIT it still hurts.  How far in the basket can a ball go without going in ?  Those that saw it will never forget that free throw.

1) Chucky - never really saw him play much, before my time.

2) Reggie - just wish he would have shot the ball more with that beautiful stroke. My favorite player to ever wear the green & gold. Solid contributor all 4 years.

3) Swift - much improved this year. Love is determination to score, just wish we'd seen him develop more before his last year.

Total Package - Chucky without hesitation.

And he grew in to the roles as they changed.  From his freshman year as a PG to his senior year as a go to SG.

One of the harderst workers and greatest guys ever to step on the floor for USF.  

And that is not to take away anything from RK, Swift or any other Bulls player.
