Austin Carr is Too Awesome and is the Best!

Not dramatic, but while waiting for a plane at Hopkins I saw a solo Daugherty walk by in a direction that I knew dead-ended and had no jets to board. I caught him as he doubled back and we had a brief conversation. This was during the time just after his back had cost him the last half of the 93-94 season. I expressed sympathy for the back issues and asked if he was improving and going to be ready for the next season. Brad replied that he was healed and ready to play right then, this was mid summer. Daugherty never played again. It was a silly thing, he didn't owe me the truth and probably was concerned about this long haired hippie type coming up to him. But I still remember and hold a playful grudge against the SOB. He was cordial, but ultimately he misled me.

Ha, I met Brad one time and he lied to me. Maybe I'm just holding a grudge.

In the late 80's I saw Brad and Harper get out of this old 1940's luxury car at the gas station around the corner from my house. (I lived in West Akron then)

Not sure if that counts as me meeting him though....i gave him a head nod, lol

You say you gave them head?

I prefer Fratello of the three. He's dull sounding but the most informative of the bunch. Daugherty is just making quips all the time, almost like an AC impersonation updated to the 90s. Carr provides little information, no strategy beyond we gotta stop them or we gotta score, but his enthusiasm is infectious and he obviously loves basketball and the Cavs. Friends who know him say he's just a great guy.

Yeah, a combination of the three would be great. AC’s personality and Yogi-isms, Fratello’s insight, Daugherty’s relative youth.

As is, all have some bad flaws

I've met and spoken with Brad many times and found him quite charming in an old-school way. A true Southern gentleman.
(Kind of close with a buck though.)
