Korean Baller

i'm waiting to see how a team of tmac and yao will work together in houston. they obviously lack a good pg, and tmac is used to being the whole team. i'm sure van gundy will be able to work something out, he's a good coach.
 
man, that's the fugliest Korean i've ever seen...

that article about the Chinese PG is sweet. 165lbs, though. he needs to put on 20 pounds just to be a skinny guy in the NBA.

i agree ... he's only 14 (supposedly) so he'll have time to grow.

Basketball in his genes: Ha's father, Dong-ki who is 6-6 tall, was a former member of the Korean National team that placed second at the 1978 Bangkok Asian Games. Ha's sister, also an astonishing 6-6, had a successful basketball career.

dong-ki, *snicker* 😛
 
By the way, if you want to see tall Asians just go to South Korea or Taiwan. I don't know how many high school kids I saw in Taiwan that were 6'3"+.
 
Yeah, ESPN did a special on this kid about a year (?) ago... I was just asking one of my friends about this kid, what happened to him... This kid, from what I understand, has a wider frame than Yao and was close to 300 lbs at age 18 (a year ago!!). He will most likely fill out to Shaq weight! Not to mention he's quick/nimble for his size, he could be 7-5 when done growing omg Orlando should draft this kid with the #1, forget Okafor!

Mongolians were some of the tallest people in the world. I have no doubt Yao Ming and this kid have mongolian blood in them.

Must be something in the carabou or other wild animals that they ate. 😉 Heh, ok so I don't know what they ate but I'm sure it was mostly from the wild. 😛
 
1) According to the article, the kids dad is 6.6

2) The article is over a year old.
