  Andrew Gaze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Son of Australian basketball stalwart Lindsay Gaze, Andrew played in the NBL at age 18, before playing a season of U.S. college basketball at Seton Hall, where he led his team to the 1989 NCAA finals, losing in overtime to Michigan.
Gaze had another short stint in the NBA in 1998-99 with the San Antonio Spurs, but spent most of his time sitting on the bench and was injured for the latter part of the season.
Whilst Gaze never had a steady NBA career, unlike Chicago Bulls center Luc Longley, he is still regarded by many Australians as their best-ever male basketballer (Lauren Jackson is arguably the best female player in the world).

The memory is of a pre-game description of him as one of Australia's outstanding athletes that brought laughter from father/coach Lindsay Gaze, and, on seeing the player, I could understand why: great player, average athlete.
The milestones were many, but more than the points and honours Gaze accumulated, I enjoyed his alley-oops with Lanard Copeland, his courtside bear hug with Lindsay on winning the 1993 championship in Perth, one 1990s last quarter when he destroyed South East Melbourne Magic, and so much more.
Lindsay Gaze was finished as a player and already an established coach and a key administrator when I met him.

The particular rat I think I smell is David Lindsay's A Voyage to Arcturus (1920), the most unrelenting, and most haunting, SF allegory of the 20th century.

Even David Lindsay embodies in his monstrous protagonist such intensities of striving that we hardly notice that the story he strides through lacks any grammar or thrust beyond the grammar and thrust he imposes upon it.
