The 7 foot 6 inch UC Irvine kid

What are people's thoughts on him? He is obvious a force on D and when he does get the ball on O under the rim is unstoppable.

However, I feel like he slows up the flow so much. And just a ton of turnovers trying to get him the ball.

He is playing great today but can see how he can be a huge negative for the team.

he will be in the NBA. you can't teach height. At worst he can be a backup center for defense.

Mean the Conf Defensive Player of the Year for the Conf Championship Winning team is a HUGE NEGATIVE for them?

You do realize he plays at UC Irvine, not Duke right?

I think UC Irvine has been extremely happy with his performance during his Freshmen and Soph season (which improved over his first).

Ca.-Irvine did get robbed. They inbounded with 7 plus seconds left and Louisville had one foul to give. Pitino gave the sign to foul again. The Louisville (Rozier I think) defender completely ran into the Irvine player and knocked him down with no call. U of L picked up the ball and dribbled out the clock. Irvine should have had the ball with one more chance with about 4 or 5 seconds left. All 3 refs just swallowed their whistle'

No way is that kid an NBA player. He has size and little else.
