I actually agree with many of your points. this is becoming a big year for Bennett. at some point for top 5 picks, excuses need to go away (mind you I'm still firmly in the camp that he can be a useful player to us even if he never ends up being what he was projected to be)
but just regarding St. Louis (and no at this point Bennett isn't going to have a HOF career like MSL) , he was 27 years old in that 70 point season
