  • Meet 7-foot-6 teen who is taller than any current NBA player

    http://www.calgarysun.com/2015/12/18...ent-nba-player

    I've never heard of a 7'6" 15 year old. Wow.
    ROME - At 7-foot-6 (2.29 metres), 15-year-old Robert Bobroczkyi is already taller than New York Knicks sensation Kristaps Porzingis -- or any other current NBA player.

    He's got a nice shooting touch and solid passing skills, too.

    So it's no wonder that Bobroczkyi is generating buzz among youth league scouts in Europe.

    What the Romanian lacks, though, are any traces at all of muscle on his 184-pound (83.5-kilogram) frame. He runs awkwardly, and tires easily.

    That's why the Rome academy where Bobroczkyi is based -- the same youth club that produced Brooklyn Nets player Andrea Bargnani -- has decided to dedicate this season exclusively to fitness and strength.

    This being Italy, the recipe is simple: pasta, pasta and more pasta.

      What they lack in quality they make up for in quantity. Expect 50-100 poor shooting, defending and rebounding 7 ft C per year. The Wal-mart of NBA big men

        Guys....


        I'm gonna say this and get hackled for it, but Bargs isn't all that bad of a player.


        Bargs is a career 35% 3pt shooter who's averaged 15 pts a game. If he had stayed healthy and actually played D, those numbers would look better.

        Not to mention he's averaged almost 1 block per game.


        Honestly, if Bargnani wasn't a 1st overall pick..... people would classify him as "Pretty Good".

        We won't hear back from him. He dissapears into thin air and reappears when you least expect it. Ten is an enigma. Ten is a legend. Ten for the motherfucking win.

            He's below Hawes, Anderson, McRoberts for tall white guys that can shoot. Raptors fucked up his development. He could have been servicable
