    I detect trace amounts of melanin! There's no sun in Germany, That's not a tan on his father.

    Looks like a good kid. Maybe he can surprise us like Capela did.

    They want the new Dirk or another version of Detlef Schrempf.

    He didn't play in the German league unfortunately, so I've only seen the same YouTube highlight mixes as you guys.

    I've seen enough of his game. Reminds me of a lefty Dirk. I can't wait to see him play for us in 2034.

    So you're saying he is 8 years away from being 8 years away to be ready to play for the Rockets....

    Correct. 8 years from now he's the Will Perdue of Germany.

    Rockets however won't be able to afford that deal so he sits back like Scola or Llull. Joins the team very late.

    Thanks for this video.

    Personally think Hartenstein has more potential than Zhou Qi from the lot of scouting videos I've been able to see

    U sure you want to go this route bro? LOF are going to jump you for this post.

    I think BobbyTheGreat can even watch that video and see Zhou Qi is trash compared to Lefty Dirk.
