Title: Theo's Block
Post by: wadesworld on December 11, 2017, 03:00:35 PM
Is there any way to create some sort of looping video of Theo's block on whatever big white stiff he put on his ass for the Badgers from Saturday's game?  I have no idea how to do any of those things, but would love to have that block on loop.

His block was against Nate Reuvers who is also from Minnesota.  Didn't they meet in the state tournament or something like that?  JB would know.

Regardless, I doubt that was the first time John has blocked him.

That block was spectacular. I realize that Theo's a work in progress, but almost every game there's a flash of absolute brilliance. I think he's going to be a very, very, good player.

I can't identify Reuvers, but Theo definitely inflicts some damage to a former MU player in the first 30 seconds of this highlight reel...

They were one game away from meeting last year... and the year before that I don't think they played. So, unless they met in a fall league game or something, not sure they have played (But I could be blanking on something)... and in travel, Nate was D1 Minnesota (adidas), Theo was Pulley (Nike), so no go there..

Nonetheless, that block was fun!

Both of DJ's blocks were awesome.  The Wisconsin block because it was Wisconsin.  The Tennessee block because it was a 5'10 guy blocking a dunk.

Theo's was awesome all by itself.

Theo's block made the top 5 BEast plays of the past week:

On a side note, the guy doing the narration has the most annoying voice in the history of sports media.

I was at the game with MU friends and we are absolutely convinced that had Howard's 3-pointer fell to end that sequence we would've been thrown out of our suite we were screaming so loudly when John snuffed that dunk. Good times.

I stand by what I said in a different thread: It was my favorite defensive play of the season.

Not that we've had a lot to choose from - ha!

Such an awesome play by John. His presence will continue to show more and more this year. Can't wait to see him improve.
