Top undrafted rookies that could make an impact
Didn't see this anywhere.

http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/223...son/page/3

"Although Houston Rockets center Tarik Black isn't a tall post player, he's physically imposing due to his sturdy frame and long arms. He's strong like an ox, and he works hard to get position in the paint for rebounds and close-range opportunities.
The Kansas product is the type of player who's confident yet knows his role and sticks to his lunch-pail duties. He's averaged 13.0 rebounds per 36 minutes so far during preseason."

He has 6 fouls and a lot more contact in the NBA to work with.

He was always going to be a better pro than college player.

Announcer said...Black spent three years at Memphis and finished up with one at Kansas.
Sounded good to me. Memphis was given all the emphasis. *biggrin*

I saw him at a pre season game here in Dallas. He had three fouls in about thee minutes and I don't remember him getting a rebound.

But he does look good out there, big and gets up and down the floor.

The minute I read "works hard to get in position for rebounds" I immediately knew this person has no idea what he's talking about.

Good for him. I like it when Memphis guys make good. He's grabbing boards a bit better at the next level, at least.

Me too. The announcer emphasized Memphis when he was complementing Tarik and saying he spent 3 years at Memphis...

I was feeling proud. 04-rock04-rock04-rock Joey, Tarik, Geron.
