Fred T. Jane Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 is it a coincidence hes 7'9'' and is number 79?Nah, it was the only jersey the equipment manager had that could fit him. Neat coincidence ain't it! [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

Shumway Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Part of the reason he's so uncoordinated is because of his feet. In China, they didn't have shoes to fit him(kind of odd coincidence, considering everything comes from china anyways). Therefore, his toes literally curled under his feet, the bones very visible through the skin(his toes were floppy, basically). They literally had to grind the bones down on his feet, if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 The documentary on him was incredible. They showed the surgery to remove the main part of the tumor, and how he is still being treated for a small piece that is on an artery. Now that his pituitary has stopped going nuts, he is just starting puberty! This is one of the big reasons he could never get in any kind of shape, so hopefully his conditioning will improve dramatically over the next several months. Whether or not he has the actual athleticism needed for the NBA remains to be seen.They also showed him living in an apartment with some of his teammates. The only think I could think of to describe it was that old Sesame Street song "one of these things is not like the others... one of these things is not quite the same." "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

winghaz Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Watching him hold the basketball reminds me of team handball players in the Olympics.Which leads to an obvious follow-up: Yes, I actually watched team handball in the Olympics. No, I'm not a huge team handball fan, but I was curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epiphanic Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Can he jump?Let me just say he lost the opening tap to a 6'9? forwardConsidering that he lost the tip to a guy that was a foot shorter than he was, I'd say no. But then again, when you're 7'9" you don't need to jump. You just reach. "In the arena of logic, I fight unarmed."I tweet & tumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
