At 7'6", Tacko is going to be a decent shot blocking and rebounding threat. He barely leaves the floor when he dunks the ball. He doesn't have to be an NBA lottery candidate. Just because of his size alone, he's going to be a difference-maker in quite a few matchups.

A fouling machine in the makling.

Lawson does look like a much better player by all indications so I wouldn't be surprised. Good insight.

This is UCF hoops were talking about, we will take what we can get. But you better believe you'll catch some talk if Tacko ever yams on lawson.

If you really think all you need to rebound is to be the tallest guy on the floor, then you should really stop making any comments about basketball on this board because you no nothing about the sport.

I'm pretty sure you're taking that out of context. You don't just need to be the tallest guy on the floor to rebound, obviously, but it helps. And I think you knew what he was getting at

Instead of trolling...why not READ what was actually written.

Notice how he says SOMETIMES height and long reach can (and DOES) help with rebounding game? (Especially for a team that has had to play with a 4 guard line-up at times this year our of necessity).

Maybe Memphis can beat Christian Bros next year? Tacko could beat them by himself. 07-coffee3
