As a ten year old in 1972, Joseph Hewes favorite school was the University of Maryland, and Jim O'Brien was his favorite player. In fact, I think he's the best player on the court for both teams. And that means, yes, I think he was better than Tom McMillen or Lenny Elmore. Though he was a little shorter and didn't find the right situation in the NBA to have a substantial career there. But in watching these films, I have no doubt Jim O'Brien would have no problem playing in today's college basketball.

I was fortunate enough to meet Tom McMillen 10 years ago at the reunion of the Olympic basketball team about 10 years ago. Very nice gentleman, and incredibly elequent in his discussion of the entire Olympic experience. Again Joseph, thank you for this fantastic upload. Here's the link to news coverage of the reunion. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JMlhf2B0xfg.html
