Hype hype hype hype hype. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> How do they rate European players when they're stats are so much different from ours. Like some kid from Europe or Asia can have averages of 10 pts 8 rebounds can have all this hype, while theres college players putting up better and in the late 1st round.</div> From my other post.
because he's 7-5.. and unlike the others giants he is really bulk up (around 305 pounds) last year at the raptors workout he impressed, but got an injury or something and pull out his name of the draft..
I dont get the hype, I just dont get it He's 7-5, he doesn't even need to jump to get the damn ball :shakehead:
I always seen euro-players stats too and thought what is going on here with these lame numbers. I read an article that most of these guys are very young and on teams were they have no seniority and experience, so this means that their mintutes of game are very limited. I guess by drafting them the NBA coaches and trainers feel that they can develop them much better and faster than any euro team could.
