We open the Shoot Around this week with a listener question about who stands as the greatest college basketball player of all time, if you omit pro careers. Nominees include Laettner, Kareem, Webber, Bill Walton and a bunch of others. Rob also weighs in on NBA ref Eric Lewis getting suspended from officiating the Finals for having a burner Twitter account to defend himself and his colleagues online. Plus Jeff Van Gundy says halftime should be eliminated from the game and Rob destroys him for not understanding how important halftime is for players. We also joke about how miserable Terrell Davis looked while surrounded by Miami Heat fans during the finals, which prompts a conversation about the worst fans to be surrounded by at a game. Mike Breen also mentioned that he was able to save a Kobe jersey from his devastating house fire last year, and we wonder what we would save from our homes in the event of a fire. And we close with a discussion about Major League Eating and the foods we love to pig out on, and the best foods coming off the grill.
