Though i profess too be too young too see a majority of the players listed in this thread only on video...I did see bolivar play in CT and a few others not mentioned here..mendi, remen i also saw live and they were considered top players. I do not see how goiko would be relegated to middling status on any roster. His forehand placement shots are devastating in any era..his ability to cover the court is without peer in todays game for any front...and his catching ability is actually underrated.

I have talked too a few people who went to miami in the heyday and bridgeport and hartford..and most of them have told me goiko is as good if not better then anyone on those rosters...I do agree the talent pool is much thinner now..but thats more of an indictment on the game itself then historical ability of goikos game.
