A question here:
Why is this guy called the White Mamba?
Was he that good?

He's white and shit and a huge meme but it's epic to joke around and say he was even remotely decent at basketball. If he were black nobody would know who he was. It's really embarrassing shit-tier humor.
Why is this guy called the Black Adder?
Was he good at maths?

he's actually better than remotely decent
>>66336116
I know someone who was in a basketball camp featuring him, told me he's an absolute retard

No he's not and you're avoiding the clear fact that his nickname, which he gave himself, is 100% ironic because he's not good.

>not good
>managed to stick around as a role player in a league in which only the top 1% of all basketball players on earth ever get a chance to play in
He is fucking incredible at basketball. He's just not incredible relative to the talent he was around.

Yeah and that's exactly what I meant when I said he was shit. Obviously he's pretty good at shooting in an empty gym.

White guilt meme desu senpai
He was incredibly clutch
he's garbage
the only reason why he managed to stick around because he built a reputation of being a meme so teams would sign him because the audience loved him whenever he was on the floor during garbage time.

>doesn't understand the importance of professionalism
it's why seemingly washed up scrubs like Nazr Mohammed and Kendrick Perkins still have spots on the bench, every team worth a shit needs a hard-nosed veteran to mentor the younger players.
and when you don't you end up with would-be stars that never get it like DeMarcus Cousins

there were better role players than Scalabrine. Teams only wanted him because he was a novelty player. I mean he's a fucking sports anchor for Boston now.

>I mean he's a fucking sports anchor for Boston now.
what does that have to do with anything? Eduardo Najera was a model teammate with the Mavs and now he is an analyst for them, that doesn't change who he was.

If he had been blessed with say Dwight Howard tier athleticism he would have been a perennial all star.
>High Basketball IQ
>Above Average Shooter
>Good passer
Unfortunately for him he had D- Athleticism so no matter how good he MAY have been, there was no point in giving him anything more then garbage time minutes.

You don't make the NBA without being good. The guy had plenty of good moments. You pathetic to even call yourself a basketball fan. I hope you don't. You stupid fucking kid.
