Nope. You misapplied this very bad.

@Luke Griesser - Speedcuber You’re the only one that didn’t capitalize a sentence. So if you’re going to criticize someone, do it properly.
Lol.

[Undertale] KhaOS you’re the only one who edited their comment, so if you’re gonna criticize someone for criticizing at least use proper grammar the first time.
Almost 2 years later and this still remains as one of my favorite tournament games I’ve ever watched. Two freaks of nature battling it out and it coming down to the last second
Tacko definitely in the top 10 for most overpowered anime characters
hahahha

I hope Tacko gets drafted, such a nice and humble dude
He will go late 1st round
@@willowandluka5302 second
He might not go to the NBA. He dropped out last time he went
guseul88 Timberwolves could definitely use him to add some intimidation and someone that can actually rebound. He will have an NBA career no doubt
I Like Waffles no he need to go to Lakers or something to find some one like a Lebron James who can teach him more I heard he hadn’t been playing for too long he just kinda started so he def could learn a lot
Just wait until you see Tacko Fall's little brother...
NACHO STAND
Yooo😭😂
Good one bro, I’m going to laugh
Good one 😁👌
How about his cooler brother?

If you teach someone over 7”4 or so to use their body to their advantage and understand how to be a good center you can make a legend
Just teach them how to block shots and rebound the ball and you’ll have a great defender.
Not all 7'4 up are meant to be good at basketball.
And now we have wemby...
zion - *gets an assist*
Announcers - “OH MY GOD, TOP PICK EVERYONE”
Brody Borden he’s roy
@@Fdawg124 maybe ja?
dun if its base only from skill
he was the top pick too
i mean....he kinda was
I've watched the full game,without tacko fall in the line up UCF is struggling. Tacko got game he needs to be drafted!!!
I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that he's 3 inches taller than Boban
He still has a long way to go. I would be absolutely shocked if he even makes it to the NBA. He will probably go overseas instead.
He doesn’t want to go pro. He said he rather be Steve Jobs than LeBron James.
If Zion was not playing Taco would be headed to the elite 8.
Just saying!
@@mattnorris7124 never speak the Lord of Length's name so casually you plebe
Even though Zion is 11in shorter than Fall, he went at him with no fear.
Oh, there was fear! Duke got very very lucky here! Good game!
@@incidentalist I should've clarified, I meant Zion wasn't afraid of getting his shot blocked. You're absolutely right though about Duke getting lucky.
@@incidentalist fear by who??? Not Zion...news flash Tacko made Zion highlight reel...
Tacko's IQ is underrated, he's pretty smart and has above-average ball awareness, just needs to learn to foul less and learn to move out of the paint better - also improve FT's but I think he'll be okay - his mentality is above average
He went at him to draw fouls.
2:16 “recognises the mismatch”
He has the mismatch all the time!!!
Lol
Taco and Zion go way back... respect for Addis’s league and blues chip players.
flipflopsneeded tacko **
Nice to see Duke not have an answer for the 7 footer man among boys
That 7 footer is as understatement....
@Itzahk Pearlman when the refs help you with fouls lol
@Itzahk Pearlman hater 😜
Anyone else here because the Celtics Tacko signed him to a summer league contract?
Ted Baxter cant believe the Kings passed on him with the 60th pick. They took Isiah Thomas at 60th too and he balled out at Boston
delusional celtics fans: "we got the better one!!!1!!!!""
YES
Yes
he could help the lil green guys LOL...
I thought tacko was a skinny clown who was good only cause of his height? Now he got a bit of muscle on him and he's better. Respect
I was in the gym and ucf happened to be on one of the TVs and I saw tacko at the free throw line. I was like no fucken way! He looks completely different now
he needs to put on muscle like Shaq
He must strengten his legs
There's no reason to call him a skinny clown. And he's still good only because of his height but that's not a problem. You can say the same for Shaq and Giannis.
@@kingphil4073 you really can't say that for shaq.
Tacko needs to go to the league.
Too slow and lumbering
tom11zz884 how fast are you supposed to be when youre that big? He’s literally a log
He's graduating, anyway. If any team wants him, they'll draft him!
Chandler Barnard that’s his point!
@@tom11zz884 no one is saying he's going to be Giannis or anything. but there is definitely a place for him in the NBA. He could make a career being a back up center if he wanted to. A 7'6 ball player thats half decent is a hard combination to find
I love how tacko is smiling the whole time. Hes so wholsome
"Tacko Fall" sounds live a brand new TV series being released on the WB network.
sequel to gravity falls.
Taco Falls....with Katie Holmes.
4:31 that scream tho 😂
Rec Manyeah 😂😂😂
Reminds me of pickup games and screaming as a last resort of 3 pointer defense 😂
This is one of my favorite games in NCAA tournament history
7'6 guy is beasting in the post..nobody can guard him..
Meanwhile 3 years later he's not even in the league. lol
College they play better defense than in NBA. Way more physical
Yep.
Physical doesnt necessarily mean more difficult
Refs let em play. Not as much money on the line.
juvie gill that's why I laugh when people say Zion won't be great 😂😂😂 like who TF is stopping him?
lol duhhhh
Who ever thought we'd be seeing Zion vs tacko?! This is amazing
is crazy how tacko is super tall but hes not a super skinny guy
Cuz he is 300 something pounds, you'd think that's super skinny for a 7 foot 6 dude but no
Lol he used to be, he had no choice but to put on weight
It's amazing to me the difference I saw from 4 years ago and videos of him and where he is now as far as his size in proportion to how tall is he's definitely put on weight and muscle there's no telling where this kid to go if he continues to play not like the other experiments with manute bol and Shawn Bradley for sure.
@@imaking90 but its hard to put on weight when youre that tall like that other highschool kid
@@joezic true but he's no longer a high school kid. He's proven to be a hard worker because he hasn't been playing ball for a long time. I know it takes a lot to put on weight when you're athletically active.
Oddly enough Tacko and Zion are the 2 heaviest players in the NBA.
Well Zion still wasn't afraid😂
But I admit Taco did limit his dunks so..
Great game
The Original Kobby he 7’6
Zion learned taco move in slow motion by second half he was going to the rack on him
I love how Tacko always looks like he’s having a lot of fun 😭😭❤️
He barely has to take his feet off the ground to dunk.😂
Tiana Pyre he is 7’6 and the basket is only 10 feet high 😂🤷🏽♂️
@@isaacguerrero7163 and his wingspan is more than 8 feet long
Reminds me of Shaq
Caleb Collier he is the opposite of shaw he is skinny
@@isaacguerrero7163 7'5.25"
With more training tacko can be an all star he’s the first 7ft6 that I see runs the floor well . He’s not as slow as yao Ming was.. he just needs to be a little more aggressive like shaq was .. with that height he should bully people in the paint
You saw Yao at what age? By the time Tacko will be 27, he will probably as slow as well, unfortunately.
Andrei Dinu I saw Yao ever since he joined the nba he was slow as a snail
Tako fall can dominate the NBA if the Boston Celtics remember passing on Giannis Antetokounmpo. I love me some Tako...the beast.
Dawkins had a super game...He has another year also....wow...
yeah sensational game for dawkins the only shot he missed "counted"
@@koguma.newyork1 ..missed the alley also..but yea...
Epitome of greatness shown already at college level basketball. “” No Quarter Given, NO QUARTER ASKED! Battle royale. Loved it.
Tako has developed well. He has made great progress..
Much respect for Zion no fear in him 💪🏽
Tacko’s game isn’t that good, but his height makes up for it. I really hope he does well with the Celtics and grows into a more diverse player.
I screamed at my tv so loud when zion made that last layup
Even though I have duke winning my bracket, I do kind of wish UCF would’ve won just so I could’ve seen tacko play more
One of the best NCAA tournament games ever
If Tacko gets a mid range jump shot as good as KDs, he can be a monster. I mean how do u block that?. He can shoot over anyone.
Great game this was a treat
4:08 that *uh uh ah ah* was perfect with the moves
I was so freaking happy when my Celtics picked up taco fall. Three years from now he could be unstoppable as long as he stays healthy. So worth it
Better than 2018 finals
2019, 2020, 2021
@@iamOAKland np
And any year for that matter whether past or present! March Madness puts the Finals to shame! Unpredictable beats predictable hands down
Except for Toronto winning last year, the NBA is usually the same outcome u figure on from the beginning of each season! Monotonous is boring
Every zingle Game Zion Williamzon playz in iz A Inztant Clazzic!!! Itz called, "THE ZION EFFECT " .. #1 🏀
Funny how the refs missed the offensive foul on Zion on the last play. Pays to play for Duke.
It was a flop he barely touched the other guy
Was not a foul Zion just bodied that boi
could have called the charge twice
You’re dumb af if you watch that and think it’s an offensive foul.
Fav game all year
👊👊👊
The only thing good about being that tall is for playing basketball. You cant fit easily in cars, you have to duck when going through doorways, good luck find shoes that fit, people stare at you all the time, you stick out in a crowd. Being that tall has more cons than pros
Tacko on his way to a long successful Career in the nba. Hes Kevin Garnett 2.0
Mark Drouin he’s tacko fall 1.0 original version
Com on! We know the outcome, but how are you going to end the video with the game tied at 73-73!
I dont... what happened
Duke won. Then lost to msu in the elite 8.
If theses two were on the same team in a few years this would be the best one two punch ever....
Man imagine them along with Steph against the rigged lakers
he is a wall defender and no GM was interested with him during the Draft? come on!!!!
free throws at 36 percent ? thats a big indicator he needs a full balanced team because he is just taking up space on offense and clogging the driving lanes...
Because players with such height have the most danger of being injured.
I really hope this player gets stronger and faster and better in all his skills and I am not even a Boston fan!!!
The refs make it so obvious that they love Coach K. That last call was never a foul if you not going to call the charge 1st.
Couldn't be a charge, tako was in the restricted area so it's a foul.
@@williamwilkins3046 its a clear charge, the defender guarding Zion had position and was not only pushed but ran over also. So again, if that's not a charge, then don't call the foul on Tako, who hands are straight up.
3 years later and taco has played in more nba games then zion.
Dawkins just popped on a lot of NBA draft boards 👀
Mike Love Thyself who’s Dawkins?
Sachet D Pati Aubrey Dawkins UCF coaches son.
Yea 6'8 pure shooter
Sachet D Pati Dawkins the dude that matched zions every single point with way better efficiency😉
Me: *in 2020*
The pop up: Make your 2020 Bracket now!
Me: *cries*
I could watch Zion all day ! Like watching MJ . They are spectacular and can do something amazing each time down the floor
He's the Big Man we've all been waiting for
Ppl are sleeping in Taco Fall and Boston. They're up next!
Just saw this kids highlights...I believe!
He in good hands with kimba giving him the rock
@@stebbiej They got JB, Tatum and everyone else too. That could be a next level superteam
NCAA did not do UCF any justice. Bad calls. BS fouls. The big schools get all the $$ the hype, air time . Yet players from lesser teams ( Davidson) dominate the NBA
Taco looked like he was scared of getting foul calls, giving the impression he’s not as aggressive as he is. However, when he hardens in the NBA and knows he has fouls to give, he is going to be a dominant force if you try him.
I like how Tacko went head to head with the top pick yet went undrafted
Who said tacos are unhealthy?
🌮< 🍔 Or nah? 🤔
best battle between 2 ive seen in college
Zion
11 Rebounds, 4 Assists, 32 Points
Taco
6 Rebounds, 0 Assists, 15 Points
No comparison!
Maybe because one its the 1pick and the other is a late 2nd rounder as much
Zion cant guard him but he can guard zion, all zion cocksuckers says 'zion gonna dunk on him' before the match. But now everybody talking about statistics, just tell me : where is the zion poster on taco?
No comparison
Zion also took double amount of shots and free throws.... Taco presence definitely was felt!!!
No to mention one played basketball their whole life, the other played when they got to the states 5 years ago...
If one mans presence alone almost cost you to loss a game, that's worth more then points to me.
TAKES ME BACK TO MY DAYS.
This is really why I've got to ask "Why was Tacko Fall undrafted at draft night?" He's clearly a great prospect...
Benedict Espiritu he wanted to be a scientist and continue to study
@@beni3142 yeah, I noticed that he was very talented in academics too. Specially math and science
1 year later Zion still a beast and Tacko is a Fan favorite.
Tacko👍
I can honestly say Taco has got better since high school. He couldnt chew bubble gum and walk when I first saw him. He's actually a smart young man too. Im proud to see him comfortable now.
Imagine if zion actually dunked on tacko😮
Loved this
The next gen Shaq vs Yao right here.
eric hammer boy u sound dumb
And now both of them are in the NBA
Taco should’ve had at least at LEAST 40 possessions. No one on that duke team could stop him.
this two player can change the game..
If dude falls down to the 2nd round, I hope NY takes a chance on Fall.
I can't wait to see them both in the NBA!!!
Tacko > Zion
Tacko is a future HOF
Bold statement
Ivan Struzia 👍🏿
adi jaya not a chance
Lol
Can’t understand how tacko remained undrafted. I would love to have a guy like him on the team. He can move very well for a guy at his height. In 2 years he can be a strong force.
Everyday would be leg day if I was Tacko coach.
Wat s a leg day?
I could get wooshed for this, but it's a day where you work out and focus on leg workouts. Hope that helps
@@pum6454 thank u sir.
What is they are feeding tavko to keep muscles on his body
I will never understand how basketball fouls work...
It's simple. Referee's discretion.
It's American basketball. here in Europe our foul is not soft
As you grow you will surely learn it bro.
👻👻👻👻👻
Funny how one of them gets drafted #1 and gets a ton of hype, but the other gets to sit on the bench and come in for about 3-4 minutes every 6 games. Tacko deserves so much more than being a bench warmer.
Taiga Kagami vs Papa
!ZION WILLIAMSON¡ Dios te bendiga, Hay que besarle la mano a la nueva estrella, ahora de la NBA... y cada vez que se mencione su nombre te dara la bendicion.
Zion will be a good player in the nba sometime but never will be as good as the goat Brian scalabrine
Hey what was the final score????
Duke wouldnt have won this game if tacko wasnt in foul trouble. And some of the calls were trash. But duke always gets their way 🤷♂️
U6_ KMDC #salty
@@RailroadJourneys amen, im happy they got booted i just was hoping tacko and ucf would have been the ones to drop them off lol.
Remind me a lot of the late Manute Bol with more weight. Does any NBA team recruit him in this year?
Narindra Yogatama signed to celtics
All this talk about Zion; Tacko Fall nearly ended Duke's chances of advancing tonight. Tacko is black Yuo Ming
Yao was way more skilled and mobile
A win is a win....
I'm genuinely really confused, and I hope you or someone can help me out by answering this for me. Why haven't I seen one video about Tacko Fall playing against Zion Williamson *in the NBA?* All I literally see is then playing against each other *in the NCAA.*
they’re both always injured or not playing
The refs gave this game to Duke. UCF outplayed them from the get go. Zion could've been called for charging multiple times down the stretch. Zion vs Tacko,, advantage Tacko
Show me a time stamp where Zion charged.
Crazy good game last night. Watched it live and Tacko was just rejecting Zion but Zion just wouldn't take NO for an answer. Was constantly going up to him and eventually got em. Great game and Zion is definitely something fresh for basketball.
Just looking at Tacko's height... Man this feels so unfair broo
Tbh I think bol bol is better than fall. Too bad bol bol got hurt
even Zion with that body had problems in the paint against Tako.
So the end of the game wont show?
HOW DID HE NOT GET DRAFTED?
Tacko:Wide open standing dunk
People commentating: hEs lEaRnIeD hOw tO pLaY
Tacko is fun to watch...he has gained a lot of weight over the past 3 years but still needs to pack on 20~30 lbs for a chance to take the bigs in the NBA is my guess.. Hope he gets drafted
Anyone know who won in the last..?
