    We've seen him a No. of times dribbling from court to court in traffic without losing or fumbling the ball. That's impressive for a non-NBA 6-foot-7 power forward.

        Well, I think Sahakian's offensive capability was overlooked becoz he was playing behind (in terms of offensive options for the Iran team) his more illustrious teammates Hamed Haddadi & Samad Nikkah Bahrami. And we all know how good Haddadi & Bahrami were during their primes. I think Sahakian was a better offensive player for Iran than most people perceived him.

          Note that this is probably shorter than PBA height. Was it Ratliffe who was measured by PBA as 6’7 or 6’8 but only 6’6 in KBL?

          PBA measures height while lying down. So you can imagine that the spine might be more compressed when standing which is how KBL and the rest of the world measures it.

            Hard to believe that Raliffe is measured in the KBL as only 6-foot-6. I thought Ratliffe is around 6-foot-8 barefoot (Not to say you are wrong bro. It's just hard to believe). I think if he & Carl Tamayo stand side by side standing straight, Ratliffe will be noticeably taller than Carl.

              Hopefully he can improve his defense as well. Contesting shots, staying in front.

              At least he improved his rebounding, especially offensive rebounding. Hope it keeps improving.

              • I remember CTC saying that Tamayo has the potential to be a Gilas star in the near future. This was during a time when he was seeing limited action both with the national team and his pro team. It's a reminder that coaches/insiders know/see so much more than what normie fans.

                  Seeing how well Tamayo is playing in the KBL right now, coach Tim is just being vindicated on his comments about Tamayo before. Agree with you, coaches are much much better at evaluating a player's potential than averaged basketball aficionados.

                      And it's not just evaluation ability. Coaches/insiders have much more information available to them. Things like injuries, work ethic, coachability, drive, family/life situation, etc. There are so many information/factors that average people have no access to or even consider. Which is why it's amusing when some people are so sure when they think they know more than coaches.

                          It's not when you've stood next to guys in an elevator who have claimed to be 6'4, 6'6, or even 6'0 in the Philippine Star. Wearing Jordan 11's that have really thick soles add at least 2 inches to anyone's height. Pinoys have this odd obsession of doing that shit while making imports crouch during PBA import medicals so they're all under the league's height limit.

                            Tamayo's Korean coach Cho Sanghyun evaluated him before, and said that he will be the 2nd best KBL player after Choi Jun-yong who is the first.
