2 7-6 centers battle it out @ 6 pm on ESPN3
« on: November 18, 2015, 11:13:22 AM »
Looking for some must see TV today? UCI 7-6 junior Mamadou Ndiaye battles UCF 7-6 freshman Tacko Fall at 6 pm CT on ESPN3. It is the tallest match-up in college basketball history and these are no Shawn Bradley stiffs, more like Kristaps Porzingis athletes.
 
Disappointed this game has been relegated to ESPN3, but have been enjoying the Twitter war between the 2 schools:

In one year of college, Shawn Bradley averaged 15 pts, 8 rebounds and 5+ blocks a game. He then played 9 years in the NBA. They have a long, long, way to go to be near as good as Shawn.

And to mention these two with Porzingas - who was a possible #1 overall pick is just wrong.

Tacko Fall is my current favorite cool name.   8-)
Have some patience, FFS.

Well... they say you can teach height.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

The two tall stiffs combined for 11 pts / 9 Reb / 4 blocks / 0 assists.

Okay, okay, so they are more like Robert Swift type lotto picks ;)
