So remember that "Scallenge" Brian had? Where he said he got sick of people running their mouths and challenged the best of Boston to come play him 1 on 1? Well...
"Scalabrine — who spent the last few seasons of his career seen as the “human victory cigar” — easily defeated all four of his opponents, throwing down monstrous jams and sinking smooth jumpers as he beat them all by a combined score of 44-6."

Weren't there people on this forum saying they could beat the worst player in the league? I even heard somebody say they could take Toney Douglas. Take notes, kids.

It's very humbling for sure for people. Even if you played college ball... the lowest NBA players will push your shit in and demolish you.

That was the 3 guys who hosted the event and that he beat 1 vs 3 for an 11-1 score. Not the guys he played 1 on 1. The younger guys were his opponents two of which played college ball.
Re: Scalebrine DESTROYS Boston's best street ballers
Hilarious, and expected. Scal's no joke. In one of the last C's games he was color commenter on, Gorman called Scal a civilian and Scal took offense to it... Then he goes and shits on these real civilians.
Re: Scalebrine DESTROYS Boston's best street ballers
Nice.
I don't know where the hell they got that second guy though? I can sort of see the others to do decent in a pickup game, but that second guy was god awful.

Okay maybe not the best... but better than most of us on ISH probably (1st and 3rd guy). I read that two of them played college ball, including 1 at Syracuse so obviously they aren't that scrubby.
Re: Scalebrine DESTROYS Boston's best street ballers
I just finished watching the first matchup. For those who didn't read or watch, Scalabrine's first opponent was Matt Tomaszewski, a 6'8'' walk-on at Syracuse last year. The game was to 11 with a 10 second shot clock and stoppage in play after each shot. Both Matt and Scalabrine seemed to leave a lot of shots out there. Tomaszewski looked kind of awkward at times, then not bad at others (ex: air balled some good looks, then drilled a few lefty hooks). Scalabrine didn't exactly dominate, but then again, the other guy was 6'8'', so regardless of his skill, it's a moderate sized body for Scal to work against.

I wonder if we took the best college players and put them against the role players of the NBA though? Now THAT one I think a lot of the college players would win.
