This guy needs an 8 inch vertical to dunk the ball. Loser.
Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

Funny article.

I know the host family, one of my kids plays ball with the youngest son of the family. Kid is in the 5th grade and has a wicked crossover! Kid pulls up and shoots threes on fast breaks! We should sign him, I never seen a kid do such things at 10 yrs old! He gotta 8 foot giant in the house to play with! This kid will is being groomed for hoop. should be fun to watch his progress!

I saw this giant a few weeks ago and about freaked! this is the largest human being I have ever seen! I saw Manute Bol from the 5th row aginst the knicks and he was really tall, but skinny. This guy is unbelieveable. He has created a buzz around town!

Fishmike, how you get find that article?

WHo cares? He's an instant fan favorite, and just stick him somewhere near the hoop. The article makes it sound like he has some talent, so I would definetly try a pick on him. Now, does he fall to the second round or is it going to cost a first?

Okay heres a little sumthin sumthin I learned in genetics a couple of weeks ago. Giantism and being really really tall is often caused by having extra X chromosomes ex. XXY or XXXY, or XXXXY u get the point(males are normally XY). Its rare, but china has like what 2 or three Billion people? With such a large population i'm sure this condition of having extra X chromosomes is more frequent, or at least the odds are much better. That dude in the pic looks like he has XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXY lol
my prof started talkin about Shaq and how short his mom looks next to him...who woulda thunk!

No way do we use a pick on him, might as well bring back Vranes. Come on.

Well, thanks to the Mo trade the only second round pick we have is in the 50s so if there is no Ariza to pick, why not?

this year's second rounder goes to Atlanta for the Nazr trade. Next year's second rounder goes to Houston for the Mo Taylor trade.
