Riddick played really well early on, it seemed like he just wasn’t cut out mentally for Pitino or this level. He did make an all sec tourney team and averaged 8/5/2 in 19mpg which isn’t terrible his junior year. I know he underachieved based upon expectations but he was a good role player at worst his last 2 years.I know I shouldn't do this. But darn does he remind me of Andre Riddick lol
Jeff, Im such a sap, you brought me to tears with your comment on Chandler.This kid has alot of upside he is in good hands with Pope and no one is talking about that feed chandler gave him man that was nice

DUDE, that's who I was thinking of last night and couldn't get the name in my brain! Yes, Riddick would do a nasty dunk then just stare through you on the way back downI know I shouldn't do this. But darn does he remind me of Andre Riddick lol
Ya I think we got the best version of Riddick when we compare Garrison. But he definitely is extremely similar in many ways.DUDE, that's who I was thinking of last night and couldn't get the name in my brain! Yes, Riddick would do a nasty dunk then just stare through you on the way back down
Yeah, other than that one buzzer beating tip-in.Riddicks offense was offensive.
If you are how you talking on here?Jeff, Im such a sap, you brought me to tears with your comment on Chandler.
Ok, I cried.
If there are 22 other teams better than Kentucky Im Neil Armstrong
I just referencing his mannerisms and play style. He is definitely different as well. He is Garrison. Obviously alot more offensive well rounded.I was a big fan of Riddick. Not sure why, but he always seemed sort of sad and shy, so my heart went out to him. I met him years ago when they used to have the basketball museum. His hands are HUGE. I shook his hand and mine must have felt like a Barbie doll hand to him.
But I don't see the Garrison / Riddick comparison. Riddick was a pogo stick. Long and wiry, with absolutely no offensive skill whatsoever. Garrison is much beefier, not as quick, but has much more upside on the offensive end.
I get that. I remember how after he dunked he would kind of hop up and down a few times, almost like he couldn't keep his feet on the floor.I just referencing his mannerisms and play style. He is definitely different as well. He is Garrison. Obviously alot more offensive well rounded.
garrison ====could be magloire.Garrison = Magloire
Tru,I get that. I remember how after he dunked he would kind of hop up and down a few times, almost like he couldn't keep his feet on the floor.
Good take as well. Actually a better take. TbhGarrison = Magloire
UK is better than people think too.Garrison is better than I thought. Like his foot work, demeanor and skills.
One small step for man. One giant step for the undead.If you are how you talking on here?
