[pinstripers]

Little late to this one. Horsholm defeated Copenhagen 86-71 on Friday.

Asbjorn played 35 minutes, recording 7 points, 13 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists to 1 turnover. http://basketball.realgm.com/interna...m-79ers/246563

that would work

Horsholm lost 86-92 in overtime today to FOG Naestved.

Asbjorn in 25 minutes: 16 points, 9 rebounds, 1 turnover. 6-10 FG, 4-6 FT.

Glad to see the big guy getting some more minutes.

Really looking forward to this guys addition next year. Have a feeling he'll be a bit more "polished" as say a Stutz or Nurger when they were Freshmen. Add in going against ShaQ in practice next year and we might have a legit center big going into next years March Madness throwing everybody a curve ball!!!

With the talk on unrelated threads about Midtgaard, it may be worth noting here that the Great Dane is two WEEKS younger than McDuffie (who will be a junior next year) is. How that translates into basketball readiness we won't know for a while, and big guys sometimes take a little longer; plus, McDuffie is an exceptional athlete.

Still, even with his relatively late start to the game, Asbjorn will not exactly be a puppy when he gets here.

You read my post. :playful:

Just so long as you don't accuse me of plagiarism, ST -- I actually looked him up on Eurobasket (and McDuffie on goshockers) myself.

Horsholm beat Svendborg 86-55 this afternoon.

Unfortunately it appears that Asbjorn did not play.

Well that's discouraging.

[shockmonster]

I'm not discouraged. Artinomust be 25 years old and playing the best of his career. Much more competition than a high school Center who in Wichita would probably be 6'5.

[12eagle]

Well that's discouraging.

I think it's very encouraging. He had more points almost as many rebounds and shot a much better percentage against a guy who played 135 division one games and he is 5-6 years younger at least. The fact he playing against former d-1 players every game should help him immensely.

Yah, but I heard Artino kicked his butt at HORSE after the game.
