Big Baby's Bulls Beatdown

[Alex Goldblatt]

He matched up with BigBen nicely because of his size: just a couple of years
back BBen would eat his lunch, but his speed and athleticism is nowhere
close to what it used to be. Baby simply outworked, outhustled him. Besides,
he moves much better to shut down the paint - nice to have this wide body,
even though you're barely 6'7"...  but if you play another 6'7"...
