Omg I would be in heaven if we got this guy. He plays for UNC Asheville I saw him the other day and I couldn't stop laughing. He's 7'9 (With his shoes on) and 360 pounds!! He's the only person I've ever seen pull off a Fade Away Dunk because he was falling backwards. This guy is ridiculous and he's probably not too great but we can work with him. He leads the nation in blocks per game! Grab Him!!! He's just huge.. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/09/sports/n...=ncaabasketball Draft Info.. http://www.nbadraft.net/admincp/profiles/kennygeorge.html
Yah, he's terrible, barely can move. He had a dunk against UNC last year where he didn't jump. No way he's 7-9 in shoes either, 7-7 at most.
I'd really love to see us make a run at Davon Jefferson out of USC in the first round and make a run at Richard Roby as an early second rounder.

Yao Ming was slow too. At 7 plus you aren't going to be no Earl Boykins speed wise. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KIaJoaeW6A He's not second round material but he is definately workable.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kid Chocolate @ Jan 10 2008, 12:15 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Yao is nowhere near as slow as this guy. Yao moves very fluidly, while George has trouble.</div> Yao Ming worked the opposite. He was skinny and quick(er) and put on muscle while this guy seems to always have been big. So you're right but improvement is always a possiblity.

I had to comment on this because I flicked to ESPNNU earlier tonight watching Ashvielle vs UNC Kenny George is a damn freak and I mean that in a good way, watch this guy on HD I swear I think my eyes was playing tricks on me tonight, this kid extended both his arms out it nearly went from 1 side of the block of the paint to the other his arms was like stretch arm strong He is fundamentally sound and the scariest thing that could happen to the NBA is if this kid gets his endurance back and learns to run..he missed 3 yrs. of basketball that's why he gets fatigued so quickly. If you ever saw the movie Bedazzled this guy is almost the exact same size.
Yeah, I hadn't heard of this guy until I saw him getting dunked on by Hansborough (blatant walk by the way) on Sportscenter. He seems taller than 7'7' to me. Unbelievable how he dwarfs whatever's around him. Those highlights were like Godzilla rolling through Tokyo. Whenever I see someone that tall though, I feel sorry for them. That's got to be really tough. He doesn't look like he's having much fun out there. Seems to be in pain and constantly struggling.
Its hard not to feel bad for the kid...he can't drive as he's too tall, he doesn't fly because he's too tall. Every time he goes home from school his dad drives to pick him up and drive him home a 650 mile car ride. Seems like a good kid though
haha oh man that guy is so bad. Is it already that time to boot on draftexpress? Well I'm not that caught up on swing guys around the mid-first range, but I can safely say that we're not going to be looking at DeVon Hardin again.
