check this dude out. says he has a 8 foot (wingspan)....! http://nbadraft.net/profiles/jaberrouzbahani.asp
Why y'all hating... soon he will be making more than all of the people that have posted in this thread combined... And the sad thing is hes i think only a month older than me...
wow. he can dunk without even jumping. that's kind of crazy... you know... i'm actually kind of against it. he's TOO tall. i'm sure when dr. naismith invented basketball... he imagined jumping and shooting touch as integral parts of the game. dunking without even jumping is like when you're little and you lower your driveway hoop to 7 feet. that's not cool. but oh well... can't heigh discriminate or anything.
Man im persian myself and with the prospect of a fellow persian coming out into the NBA it would really be cool. But for gods sake could they at least do some plastic surgery on him so that is not what they take us for? I mean this boy really needs some help. As far as his game i am not sure how good he really is. There is not much competition in the middle east for the most part and if anything he is probably just a raw player that would really have to learn.
To be fair to the kid, that photo didn't do him a lot of good. I saw the guy playing against Yao and he is not that ugly in real person. He's still raw but obviously, has great size.
