Carson Williams and Larry Bird

Springs Valley was off the map. Heck, French Lick, Ind., was until Larry Bird was on NBC in 1978!

I take you know everything about everything? Then again, you told me William Slaughter played football in the playoffs against Conner and I confirmed that is not correct. So I understand you now at least. A contrarian without facts. Thank you.

No thanks needed for me. I could be wrong and just value others opinions.

Now, do I think he is as good as Bird was in high school, I have strong doubts, however, you call it as you see it.

Pretty unnecessary to bring the region thing up, but then again you have an opinion. On that I disagree. I think most on here appreciate kids wherever they play.

I talked to Willie Slaughter after the game on the field. He played.

Everyone in this thread hopes you are right OldhamOldie. No one believes you are right, but they all hope you are right.

This whole thing was about two high school players in different eras, not an NBA Hall of Famer. Bird was very good in high school, so is Carson. Bird was a shy kid, but a tenacious player on the court. Williams is much like Bird in high school. That is all I said. But I respect your opinion without all the snakiness of some of the others on here. I did not realize how many of these people are just vicious and out to ridicule other's opinions, but now I have been alerted.

That's interesting, since he had a cast on his leg until January. That comes from a former Newport player on that team who laughed when I asked him yesterday how William played. You might have shaken his hand, but you never saw him on the field playing.

Cool, but remember some people are just having a little fun. I neverr take one thing personal on this site. I do laugh a lot. It's tough on here when you are a left winged, mamby pamby, tree hugging socialist. Or that is as as some believe.

Good points. One of my buddies said he can give me some pointers on "who" to avoid in this chat room, that they only do it to amuse themselves and pick fights when they are unseen. HAHAHA.

When I run into kids from Owen County, especially young kids, they look at Carson like a god. It's funny to hear them talk about him.

Delete.

This would be like comparing the top freshman in the state to Michael Jordan as a freshman. Well we all know Michael got cut from varsity his freshman year, therefore the best freshman in the state in comparable to Michael Jordan.

Carson Williams is good, but to be mentioned in the same breath as Larry Bird is beyond me. Poor kid.

Sophomore year

Don't argue with this individual, he knows all and shook hands with a football player who had a cast on his leg yet played in the game.

Carson isn't even in the same ball park as Chapman. Chapman was an all American at UK and Carson isn't being sniffed at by UK. Chapman was a actual playing player in NBA and the closest Carson comes to playing in the NBA is in his dreams. Just stop comparing this kid to great all American college players and a NBA legend.
