He fired the crowd up.
He showed off his footwork in the lane.
He decapitated a layup.
Tacko Fall’s preseason debut the other night was everything we could have hoped for, at least according to this clip:
If you’re wondering how the biggest man is handling the attention, the Boston Herald put out a nice little piece on it all, sharing mostly that both Fall and the Celtics recognize this is an unusual situation while leaving out the fact that Danny Ainge and Brad Stevens will be tarred and feathered if Fall doesn’t make the roster.
It’s an exciting time to be a human being. It’s an exciting time to follow Tacko Fall.
