not even counting all the deep playoff runs and U.S. basketball.

He's not doubling any of that or coming anywhere close. He's probably about 3/4 of the way done.

what if he got more help?

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Moses was an instant phenom too but I'd still give Bron the edge over Mo because of the disparity in competition of the ABS/NBA

Nowitzki played in what I guess like the relegation division of the Bundesliga for several seasons. He played in that tour thing against Barkley and them; Barkley talked about it in his book (said he offered Dirk a full ride to Auburn, only to see that he wasn't alone in noticing his talent when Dirk went in the top 10 a short while later).

Age wise I guess you look at Dirk, T5T, et al, but those guys had pro experience already.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
