A beast called Sun Ming Ming

http://www.news-record.com/sports/local ... 041305.htm

omfg, what an animal...i hope when he goes to nba he will be better than yao

Just what we need, more giant Asian's in the NBA. Jersey sales aren't that bad are they?

hmm, if he is slower than yao ming, will shaq be able to cross him up?

What's up with no one discovering someone like this before he's 21!? Just imagine what he could have been if he had been trained by proffesional trainers since he was like 10

this was on the links last week. that kid is skinny as hell. like i said on .org, if he doesn't bulk up he's gonna end up like bradley.

Holy shrimp! That guy is 236cm and 160kg! That guy is able to blow Yao away! Imagine he would dunk on Amare... the Suns would lose their PF for three years. Hopefully he's gonna get drafted in this year's draft... #1 for sure! The Lakers and Wolves have a chance of getting #1 spot.

Wow, I know China has a large population, but another super 7-footer is beyond my comprehension. He has a cool name, Sun Ming Ming. I can see the ESPN headlines now: Ming vs. Ming Ming.

Or: "The sun is rising!"

Well China is the most populated country on earth and this guy did not play b-ball until recently from what I read.

Please tell me that was a "joke".

He might not even get drafted, he still needs major work on his game.

He was a big boy.
But we all know that Shaq is the most dominant center in the NBA.
And there's nobody that can crush Shaq!

Only recently? He should've started by the time he hit 7'0"

whats up with all these tall asians, I thought asians were usually the short ones lol

I think he should consider a hockey career as a goalie. Just have him sit in a Yoga position, give him some equipment, and nothing gets past him.

Hey cyanide, I always had that question about hockey. Being that the goal is actually quite small, what would happen if a team signed an 6'6", 700 pond ex-Sumo wrestler and just had him sit in fron of the net? Would the league allow it?

but in a 1.3 billion people country...
say.. only 0.01% has this unsual height..
there're still around 1,300,000 people
well reason chinese can get into nba is height..
ie, wang zhizhi, megnkebateer, yao ming..
they're all tall.

I think so, except he would probably fail training camp No matter how wide the ex-Sumo wrestler would be, there's gonna be holes between the legs, and between the arms and shoulders, so speed and agility is important.

The biggest problem with giants is getting up & down the court. Manute Bol would have been fine if the NBA was half-court

In his first years w/ Orlando Shaq ran the break as fast as any guy. The thing is Shaq really won his championships past his athletic prime, same w/ Jordan's 2nd threepeat.

It doesn't matter if you're 8' 10" if you're not there, the other center will dunk uncontested.

DUUUUUUUUDE just look at his hands man!!!!!!

I think you are underestimating the actual size of a 6'6" 700 pound human being. Trust me, I've seen one up close and it is simply indescribable...

with that large a population, there are gonna be freaks

Age: 21
Height: 7' 8 3/4"
Weight: 350 lbs.

That's enough to scared the hell out of many players including Shaq

Reports said he had never done any weight training - so I guess he's as weak as Yao which is useless in today's Nba.

I wonder he has any high school or college experience back in his native country and what stats were, well I guess it doesnt matter coz Yao was averaging some incredible numbers in China but once he came to the NBA, he's just an above average center.

Well, what do you say about this.

Imagine if he could get strong enough to get into the low post, all he'd have to do is turn around and dunk without jumping. I'm definitely reserving my spot on the Sun Ming Ming bandwagon.

Edit: Damn, I can't find any pictures of him on google.

Give him a year with heavy weights and intense training, and he'll be pretty strong and flexible by then. I'm kind of curious about his court sense, shooting, rebounding, blocks, etc.
