Sun said those procedures were successful and he's getting into shape. Doyle noted that his big addition needed extra training after taking time away from the court to shoot a fight scene in Jackie Chan's upcoming "Rush Hour 3." "That was very fun," Sun said.


He has some skill (not much), but can barely move. If he makes the NBA at all he'll be a poor man's Shawn Bradley - although that might be overestimating his potential, given that Bradley made a very fine career for himself.

Darko he ain't.

But with his size you could play a 1 - 4 zone. with him being the zone in the paint and everyone else playing one on one, which would work great against every team except for the Desert Smurfs who can put 5 three point shooters on the court and not miss a beat.
