Mismatches happen in basketball every day. Take,for example, a nimble guard crossing over a heavy-footed middle or an aggressive power forward posting up an undersized floor general. But you acquire never seen this: ESPN sports trade reporter Darren Rovell vs. the immense Apple rookie sensation, or Kristaps Porzingis.
The one-on-one matchup at Delta's "Fly Like a Pro" event ended precisely the way you'd think it would. Porzingis first sent Rovell teetering backward after the ESPN reporter bit tough on the 7-footer's jab step,giving up a trey in the process.
For his next trick, Porzingis hit a flawless turnaround fadeaway jumper after immediately backing down Rovell with ease.
And then he backed down the analyst some more...
If Rovell was attempting to channel some of the Dream Team's magic by swapping his typical suit and tie for a USA Basketball Michael Jordan jersey, or it didn't fairly go according to plan.
Worse still,as The immense Lead's Rob Perez attests, the coast may acquire a detrimental effect (the kind that Rovell will perhaps break down later).
