    That is exactly what I suspected, he also was sending me messages about VSpan coming back to the NBA and sending links....all of which were basically from a blog he created, that was picked up by lazy journalists over there.

    Has anyone confirmed this? Who is this Ming guy who posted this on that other board? Did I miss something or is this a rumor from another board?

    Doesn't sound like he would fit with the run-and-gun 2nd unit though. Sounds more like a shorter version of Yao.

    I wonder how accurate the height measurement is? Scola is listed as 6'9", but has always looked 6'10" to me. Does this cat have a motor anything like Scola's?

    How bout something along the lines of Anderson + Taylor + 14th pick for Pekovic + Gomes + 23rd pick?

    That Ryan Richards guy looks a lot like Amare Stoudemire in that highlight video...

    If he can stay healty, I wouldn't mind having a shorter version of Yao on the team.

    I figured he was raw, but he can dribble, shoot, and is very athletic.. Almost reminded me of Anthony Randolph

    Without the attitude, he showed very well at the NBA predraft workouts.

    Apparently GM's were scrambling, going "Who is that guy?"...

    Might be worth a high 2nd round pick, or a reach at 14?

    Wait, OP posted a link to a blog, that doesn't have a link to the rumor.

    Yes,he does. He doesn't seem more than 6'9" to me though. He does seem slower getting up and down the court than Luis,but he is a tough player.

    this is true, which is why the thread title has been changed.

    Im only leaving this open as it isnt a bad idea really, so its open to discussion....but lets not fool ourselves here..


    THERE IS ZERO VALIDATION TO THIS RUMOR

    If that's the case, he wouldn't be any bigger than Luis, would he? I like what I hear about his effort and skill around the post, though.
