When he’s compared to Tacko Fall it only makes sense he’s slower. Tacko is a natural big man, his body was built for that height. Mamadou is tall because of a tumour, it’s not the same.

Tacko fall vs mamadou would be an all time great finals matchup

[@Birdman32]

People really don’t know just how improbable it is to make the NBA. To put it in perspective, somebody 7 feet tall only has a 17% chance of makin it

[@ihavn-wordpass69]

And for regular dudes its less than 0.01

[@yessirski1672]

17% chance is 1 out of 5. that’s pretty good odds to make the league

[@natee4996]

@@yessirski1672 wait you do know there's only about to 2000-3000 7 footers in the world. So after the amazingly low odds of someone becoming a 7 footer then, 17% of that will make the NBA. Thats incredibly low odds

[@yessirski1672]

Nate E Yes but im speaking for the odds for 7 footers. a 1 in 5 chance is pretty good. way better than the odds of someone 6’5 or something

[@david.tousignant20]

Well, Mamoudou N'Diaye played profesional basketball in Mexico (LNBP) since 2018 and he's currently playing in the Big3 League. He's obviously not NBA material, but I can respect him. Respect for him!

[@andrewstephen9096]

That's the thing.... I don't understand how he isn't NBA material...... For example, the Warriors' one and only real weakness is the fact that they don't have much size or height under the basket...... GS should have signed him and they could have payed him a very small check, but which would have been good money for him, and they would have gained so much size and height under the basket! Imagine having him on GS fighting for offensive boards under the basket!! He doesn't need to be super fast and athletic..... The Warriors already have all the speed and skill a team could ever wish for...... They just need someone really tall, with a huge long wingspan under the basket...... I just don't understand how no NBA team thought they could use him!!

[@david.tousignant20]

@@andrewstephen9096 Well, he had his chance in the NBA Summer League with the Warriors and signed a G-League contract with the Grand Rapid Drive. Tall players rarely dominated in the pros for multiple reasons. But, the speed of the game is one of the factor why they (over 7'5 tall players) disappeared.

[@mr.mcclinton7679]

The better question is not can you be too tall but, can you be too immobile for the league? Great video, as you answered many of my questions concerning this man! Thanks!

[@geraldshields9035]

Adding insult to injury, Taco ain't even starting with the Celtics!

[@Lealo_0527]

That’s why Yao survived in the league cuz Yao got skill

[@harveyepstein8256]

the taller you're basketball becomes more of a chore than a passion. you might not be interested in basketball at all but you will be forced by society to play it which make you obligated to do so

[@xum0007]

yeah thats why i love my height i am a 6'3 freshman which is tall enough to be competitive as a basketball player but im never even going to reach 7'6 so i wont have these unrealistic expectations on me

[@engsfitnessnaturalhaircare7829]

[@kennethjackson9288]

Wrong college, wrong system, wrong coaches, wrong trainers. Had he been handled correctly he could of became a strong back up center.

[@RigelZM]

He should have focus more on the leg work getting stronger lower body. He might not played in NBA but China and Euro can also give solid money

For a D-league bench. He is too slow and fragile.

There is nothing disappointing in his story. He is alive and well, and he can still make money and travel.

[@braxtonhatch8767]

The Celtics do have a good Center... There's a reason they were the number 1 D in the league. That's because most all the starters are elite defensive guys. Their current center covers ground like no bodies business and can block 3's.
