Wingspan of a Hummingbird. I did not see even one good blocked shot. And this was against the real crappy short kids. He will end up with more turnover to his name than a paratha at the local restaurant. The only way he is getting on the NBA court is as the world's largest ball-boy.
There are more than 1 billion Indians in the world. Not ALL of them can be good academics. Trust me if all Indians were good in academics, India would be in a much better state compared to other nations in the world.
The OP video didn't do him justice because he didn't seem to care in it. When you watch him in a game, actually trying, it seems he's certainly gonna get a look in the league. 10 PPG, 8 RPG and 3.4 BPG in only 26 MPG. He doesn't appear to have any real skills whatsoever, but he is big. If you play smart and tall (the Mark Eaton rule) you will hang around. I'm sure NBA guys think they can make him at least an effective rim protector.

hes still carrying a lot of fat. needs to become highly conditioned to ever have a chance in the league. He'd get destroyed in PnR defense and his stamina looks to be a major issue
Yup, he's not from India like this guy is. Yao moved well for his size before the NBA as well. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/q94XmB51yA8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/AvknOlKuBjw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Ku1boWqQtns" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/kvmwEG7JMMU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Damn only thing this thread did was remind me how special Yao was. He was still a pretty smooth for his size. wish she hadn't broken down.

the only reason the kings got him was bc of the indian owner. Hopefully he makes it...would be the first american indian to play.
You are right. He is only there because of the owner. He doesn't seem to be good enough to make it in the league. If he succeeds, it would be nice.
