Hamed Haddadi the next big thing

[Lebron23]

He is one of the best Center in Asia, and he is going to play in the 2008 Beijing, Olympics to represent Iran. He is very mobile for a legit 7 footer, and he reminds me of a younger version of Zydrunas Ilgauskas.. With the lack of Natural Centers in the NBA i think General Managers and Talent Scouts should take a look at his potential, and maybe they could offer him a 10 day NBA Contract.

I think Hamed Ehadadi could make it in the NBA, and he is the only Asian beside the Chinese players that has the potential to be a good role player in the NBA.

Ehadadi scored 19 points, 16 rebounds, 2 assists in his first Official Summer League Game againts the Dallas Mavericks.

Hamed Hadadi (218-C-85) has over the last few years consistently been developing his talent. I really hope he gets the appropriate exposure now in the U.S Summer League and play some good games in the Olympics to prove that he truly deserves a chance in the NBA.

Not anymore, you're a bit outdated
Hadadi (or is it Haddadi or Ehadadi?) is already a great player. I already wrote this somewhere, but I'm absolutely marvelled with him and I watched him play just a few times.

I dont know why you were offended ?
im replying about a fact that hadadi and the chinese players are only the potential players in asia to play in the NBA and this is not true.
Anyway im proud that the legend of the game M.jordan have talked about a lebanese player fadi el khatib.
For ur infos el khatib have signed in the NBA with LA Clippers but his local team refused to give him his release,then he took many offers from R.Madrid and many teams from Russia.

For oldnews,i challenge him to name me one skilled chinese player on any of the guards spot.

i think the main reason why hamed doesn't play abroad is that he's not ready mentaly to do so....maybe he's afraid to play outside iran...i remember he got many offers and he turned them down for this reason...he's really good...he has a lot of potential...he need 2 change his way of thinking

Aren't political reasons also there?

Hu Weidong,SG,SF the legend and the best asian player in 90's, have been given a contract by Dallas, failed for an Unfortunate injury, and was blocked by his club later.
Sun yue, PG,SG,SF,drafted in last year by lakers, has a very big chance to play in NBA this year.
Besides Yao and Yi, we have
Song Tao, be drafted by Atlanta in the third round, failed for serious injury.
Wang Zhizhi, the first chinese player in NBA, has played for dallas, clips, heats.
Bateer, has played for Denver, spurs, get his first NBA champion ring in spurs.

yes of course...this is the mentality i'm talking about...i think he's afraid not to be able to settle down in any foreign country...i don't think it's a money problem

If the player has a real potential of becoming a superstar then even political issues shouldn't be such a big deal (unless Hadadi has a problem concerning this).
I still remember that when Yao Ming entered the NBA the U.S and China were not on best terms but I think the NBA wanted him to join them because of his potential and so that they could enter the Chinese market.

hi zouz, you are totally wrong !

you must know that :
1) USA (+ EU) is not whole world
2) Ahmadinejad is not whole Iran

the dream of every Iranian basketballers is NBA, they never reject NBA offer. NEVER !

They are against Iranian goverment.
They won't reject Iranian basketball player.

i am not talking about iranian goverment...i'm talking about the fact that hamed haddadi didn't want to leave iran bc he's afraid maybe to be abused by the fans or not to accomodate to new environments...he has already turned down many offers...maaybe he doesn't want to leave his family...i really hope for him the best and if he gets accepted in the nba then well done for him...i know nba is the best league but i think right now he's not able to play in this league...he needs to play outside iran to get more experience and then try out for nba

What do you think about iranians ?
"he's afraid maybe to be abused by the fans", why ?
many iranian footballers are playing in europe, so why they don't fear? (even we had a player in MLS)

i dont know why he turned down Partizan offer. but your political reason is a joke for me as an iranian (who know Iranians better than you).

Please be careful when you talk about a country
