Kevin McHale was jokingly referred to by his teammates as ‘The Black Hole’ because once you gave the ball to him in the post, you were never going to see it again. None of them were too upset about it, however, since McHale was one of the most efficient post scorers in NBA history.
My question is this: who are some players whose ‘black hole’ playstyle was a bad thing? Which guys were infamous for never giving the ball up, even when they really should have?
Manute Bol
Javale Mcgee
You definitely dont want Mcgee trying to dribble it much less PASS it. So self-aware black hole…?
