The starting center on the Portland Trailblazers, that's who.
He stands at 7'3", he weighs 305 lbs., he's Korean and... and... did I mention that's he's 7'3"? Ha Seung-Jin is proving to the world that white stiff doesn't just apply to worthless slugs like Darko and Pat Burke.
(BTW - I googled Ha Seung-Jin and the only pics that I found were ones with people dunking on him or Ha signing his contract. Evidently, he's way too fast for the NBA photographers to catch him in action.)
With Przybilla out for a few games, the Blazers are forced to start Ha in the pivot. This works really well as it forces their best player Zach Randolph out on the perimeter. By the way, Randolph gets most of his points down low, great coaching Portland!
Anyway, since Houston redirected their entire look and publicity department around Yao (Red uniforms, Chinese ads at the Toyota Center, playing games in China), why can't Portland do the same? Couldn't they call the paint the demilitarized zone? Can't they rename the Blazerdancers the Seoul Sisters? Why not serve Kimchee at the games? New team colors should be the same as the S. Korean flag.
Work with me Blazers! The NBA is full of bullshit marketing ploys and you guys are missing out on a golden opportunity!
Till then, enjoy the Ha Seung-Jin era, Portland!
Really? A whole post just so you get to say "hoo ha?" Nice.

HHH Yes, the design of national policy is important, how our economic development plans for the next five years, how the implementation, how to make our economy even faster. Are designed to advance our focus to invest money in what ways it should be carefully arranged.

Moreau. Rookie library use is another problem, paper view, play and stream outside his Montana - Ellis's rotten war style is very complementary, at least on the offensive end is no problem. As for the defensive end height is limited, it seems that should not have considered in Nelson within. The results? Ellis says that in the pre-season and Curry do not want to cooperate in the backcourt, how to solve this problem remains to be seen.
