Get off that high horse before you fall and hurt yourself. Almost every post criticizing this pick (and the word "criticize" being an understatement) focuses on the fact that Zhou is a Chinese player and mentions almost nothing about the weaknesses of his game. I may not know ****, but I don't think you know how to read.
he doesn't look that bad. very nimble for a big with a pretty damn good outside shot. Though CBA is a far cry from NBA in terms of size and physicality
My suggestion is to avoid arguing with dudes that claim others don't know shiiit. It's moot. They won't get it.

So many people do not like this pick must be related to the fact he is a Chinese? So if a black guy wearing a hoodie walking 2AM on the street will be a good enough excuse for the cop to shoot him? Stop using the race card and stick to the facts.
Soooooo.....Does anybody know if this guy can actually pay? Or are we just writing him off because Chinese?
Yeah, Les sat around in the "war room" until the 43rd pick and held a gun to their head because he's from China.
Seems like you are the one whose failing on how to read. Most people hate this pick because of this pick "fit perfectly with Les' decision making process". And the rational people actually discussed that this guy is not really a prospect at all.
