It was a joke. Just look at my avatar. Regarding Gilmore, I think he was as good as he could be. Plus, assertiveness can only take you so far before you're tripping over your own desire to succeed.
I wouldn't want to see Gilmore as a 30 ppg scorer of course, but I think he could have been more agressive in some seasons, especially in the early 1980s.
Supposedly Reggie Theus wouldn't throw him the ball. Do you see this in the games?
