With all the talk about the 36ers dud imports i thought i would ask who people rate as the best 36ers import that had not played in the NBL b4. Guys like Mee and Ballinger cant be named.

I find it hard to split them, for me its between Mark Davis in the mid 80's to mid 90's then Kevin Brooks and Willie Farley. So its a 3 way draw for me.
Sixers didn't recruit mark Davis. With did. He was playing state league.
How is this comparable, Mark Davis was easily the sixers best import, he's probably your best player in your history with maybe Brett Maher.
Interesting question, there havent been a lot of great ones over the years. Green, Davis, Hayes (??), Brooks, Farley.

Mark Davis by far... He has his head as a statue in re stadium even... Seriously this is a no brainer!

Rick Brunson anyone? Only had 1 season with the team before a decade in the NBA. Obviously KB was outstanding as an untested import, and if we're including Davis then he was good too.

Davis was already playing State League for South so he is off the list of candidates.
Green was already in Adelaide playing for West so he too is out of consideration.

Mark David recruited from New Zealand league then played for south adelaide after season finished.

The criteria was "the best 36ers import that had not played in the NBL b4"
Then you said "Davis was already playing State League for South so he is off the list of candidates."
Since when did South Adelaide's State League side play in the NBL? You need to re-define your query.
