Andrew Gaze was a freaking beast. I just laugh my ass off at all the NBA only fan morons that say guys like Longley and Bogut are the best Australian players, or even someone like Mills.........

Gaze was best Australian player EASILY.
BIGTIME!.
Career average in the NBL = 30.9ppg
In 1987 he averaged 44.1ppg and 1991 38.8ppg. dropping 50s and 40s EVERY NIGHT!.
He was by FAR, the best basketballer Australia has EVER produced.
MVP 7 times,
Named top 50 FIBA players of all-time
Won a ring with the Spurs in 1999
I think he loved playing in Australia, playing at home for his Tigers - otherwise i think he could have had a longer stint in the NBA - I don't think that was a priority to him...

The should have a * by it considering he was not even on their playoff roster.
Yep I agree.As much as it killed me being a bris bullets fan.Tho, Leroy was right up there .Even tho Bogut has done more in the NBA.Gazes contribution on the local and international scene more than makes up for this.
