Yeah I hated it when the Mavs used to own us. Beating them in the playoffs 3 years ago and sweeping the regular season series last year was great!
Eventually is the key word here. I really doubt he has the personality of Yao and the humor, but on the court.. who knows.
He should block with momentum going forward instead of cocking his hand back. He would be even more effective for future blocks.
Right, and elbow 4 is the position he had been playing, and he played decently well. His speed and handling are simply not enough for NBA 3. But it summer league, probably OK to try things. Shooting is another thing. I believe he will be an OK bigsize 3 pointer shooter.
I never watched Sampson games (unfortunately), but that really looks a good way to go. I'm curious to see how much muscle Zhou Qi can get by the end of the season.
Sampson played in the 80s and was a skinny athletic big. He played like a guard but took advantage with his height and length at both ends of the court
Zhou Qi already gained 12lb since he came to Houston in April. He now weights 223lb, 1lb less than the goal the team set for him.
