Does Robert Morse belong in the Hall of Fame? It strikes me if you think Kukoc does, than Morse probably does as well.
And I know, the question you are asking is who the heck is Bob Morse. Glad you asked.
Morse is very likely the most prolific American to play in European leagues. He made the FIBA 50 most influential list. He also had a hugely successful college career at U. of Penn. At Penn, he led the team in scoring all 3 of his seasons and they were 78-6 overall with two elite eights.
After college he went straight to Europe playing in the Italian league for Varese, where he led them to seven consecutive EuroLeague Finals (73-79) appearances including 3 EuroLeague Championships (73, 75, 76) as well as 4 Italian league titles (73, 74, 77, 78). He led the Italian League in scoring 6 of his 11 seasons where his career averages were 27.8 ppg and 8.9 rpg. He shot 60.9% from the field, 85.9% from the line, and an amazing 54.5% from 3. As I mentioned, he was selected as one of the 50 Greatest FIBA players ever in 2008 and is probably the most successful American to ever play in Europe, given totality of career. His contemporary Chuck Jura (also playing in the Italian League in the 70's) is probably the only American even on his level.
If this is truly the basketball Hall of Fame, then why isn't Bob Morse in it?
