Those who are skeptical of the science behind extrasensory perception – ESP, in the common vernacular – need only watch Tremont Waters and Marlon Taylor play basketball together to have their doubts mitigated.
Turn on the tape of LSU’s 83-69 win over No. 18 Ole Miss on Tuesday in Oxford, and one gets the feeling that Waters and Taylor are communicating via a sixth sense.
Interview them – at separate times, in separate locations – and prepare to have those suspicions confirmed, so eerily similar are their answers.
“That pretty much clicked instantly,” Waters says of his chemistry with Taylor, days after assisting all five of Taylor’s field goals against the Rebels.
