From the Asian section, Korean KBL thread:

Peter John Ramos has arrived in South Korea and will be joining the training camp of the Samsung Thunder.

So much for the hernia surgery.

I heard Ramos has big attitude problems, is this true?

Yeah he played in China for 2 years and has had a number of confrontations, suspended for 2 games last season because he threw a punch. But the real problem is he doesn't show any willingness to play ANY defense, at least in China. If his man shoots the ball from outside the paint, he'll just wait for the defensive rebound to pad his stats. He has really good stats I'll give you that.

In Caracas, the city where the games will be played and where Wednesday's draw for the qualifiers will be, Beltran said: "It will be a very complicated event.

"The teams are here because they are great.

"Russia, Lithuania, Greece are here...

"You have to beat everybody.

"Argentina was a tough tournament because everyone was prepared, but here the pressure will be greater ..."

Why he was suspended?

[J-Mart]

he left the team the day they were leaving for Turkey for the WBC citing differences with the head coach. Ayuso said that the head coach promised him a starting role on the National Team but they were planning to start Barea instead of him. Federation suspended him for 2 years.
