Man reaches new heights

| | Comments (3)

I've just got a quick note for you guys about up-and-comer Sun Ming Ming.

He's 7 feet, 8 and three-quarters inches tall. SEVEN FOOT NINE, people! Those are his hands on the right.

He can dunk the basketball without jumping. With his feet on the floor.

This guy's a project, of course. He's got a bunch of learning and lifting to do, but I'm hoping we'll see him throwing down in the NBA in a few years.

More information in this newspaper article.

Wow, I wonder if he shoots free throws worse than Shaq.

Also, we need to check out the Yao Ming documentary:

He was pretty rad in the game last night. I would say, he's got potential, only what the hell do I know about sports???

Naw, freddy, that was Ha Seung-Jin, who's a mere 7'3".

Sun Ming Ming isn't in the league yet.
