Scal takes on challengers

[orange_juice32]

Put a guy with equal length that can bother the shot without having to over commit and we'll see.

Guys with speed and length like that don't grow on trees. And even if you do manage to find someone with your requirements, they probably won't be strong enough to prevent Scalabrine from murdering them in the post.

Scal is/was in the top 1% of basketball players in the world and some people just need to deal with that instead of finding excuses for why he's better than them. Yes, he's taller and bigger. and? He's still 100x more skilled than almost everyone you've ever seen play ball.

Someone with his requirements are probably/most likely playing pro-/semi-pro ball somewhere around the world so yeah they don't qualify as 'amateurs".

I'm sure Adam Morrison would whoop some major rec league butt too. Austin Rivers is having one terrible rookie season, but is probably better then every non amateur on the planet.

White Mamba is going to become one of the greatest coaches in history

Even against an old, retired, and somewhat out-of-shape (by NBA standards) benchwarmer these guys got absolutely smoked.

Which is why I would want to see former scrubs like Matt Maloney, Tim Legler, Sam Vincent, Todd Lichti, Scott Brooks, Brooks Thompson go up against amateurs. Now these guys aren't fast, not tall, not strong, not athletic, not well-built....I wonder if they'd dominate as well.

Thanks for posting this, I got a kick out of watching Scal take it to those scrubs!

Nothing beats that one poster, An Unbiased Fan, claiming that he could beat Wizards Michael Jordan one on one.

Body of D-wade with the game of Penny Hardaway

The man would have been a sure-fire HOF if it weren't for those career ending injuries

Oh lawd I remember that.

Well he does have a minimum of like 4 inches and weight of like 30+ lbs on every guy he faced.

Obviously his drive is going to be sweet against small guys who have to really get up on him just to hope to bother his jumper. Put a guy with equal length that can bother the shot without having to over commit and we'll see.

the first guy isn't far off from scal's size. he's about 1 inch shorter and maybe 15-20lbs lighter, second guy is about 4 inches shorter but is skinny as hell. third guy is significantly shorter and lighter, forth guy is probably about the same as the first guy. i think you're exaggerating scal's size advantage quite a bit.

i believe the point is the average guy isn't going to beat scal in a 1 on 1. unless you're an nba-caliber college player or a top euro player, it's almost impossible to beat a bottom of the barrel nba player.

Oh god really? I need to see that post. He told me last summer the nets were lotto bound.

Yes. They would if they were 34 and just retired. Scalabrine is not exactly considered fast, strong, athletic or well built considered to other NBA players either.
