How is Peter John Ramos not in the NBA?

[Grinder]

25 years old center - 7'3.5", 275 lbs.

He's obviously not a starter on any team or even a good 6th or 7th man, but he's an ok rotation player and a lot of teams could use a 7'3" guy that rebounds well and can hit the mid range jumper as a back up center.


He averaged 18 points (68% from the field and 68% FT) and 13 rebounds in China and then 20 points (59%) and 12 rebounds in Puerto Rico. Not great leagues but efficiency and rebounding is there.

i'd rather have him than some of the centres in the league....

[Younggrease]

Everytime I see him play I think the same thing. He plays well against team USA everytime they match up.

[KissMySwag]

He used to be on the Wizards roster a few years back.

[Bandito]

Noooo, if he goes to USA he will suck as every other center does. He's finally playing good, let him be in Europe for a couple of years, so at least he can get better.

those leagues are awful.

Andre Emmitt is averaging 32 points a game over in China.

Sean Williams averaged 16 points 11 boards and 4 blocks a game in China. In Puerto Rico he dropped 10/16.

i'd love to see him in the league again, maybe a stint in the dleage could help the league scope him out

A lot easier to get signed when you're 7'3" and mobile.

He's improved a ton the past few years and hardly ever misses. He dropped 14/12 and 10/9 (missing a total of 2 shots in those games combined) on Scola and 9/8 on Al Horford last year.

[Cangri]

Miami should look into this guy, or does he have a contract with some other league?
Seriously he can't be that much worst than Big Z right?

+1 for Andre Emmitt reference.

[Haymaker]

word is that he's got attitude problems, tends to act immature and that crap.

Single games do not mean a lot. Kent is right, those leagues are just bat-shit awful. Having the "skills" or stamina to perform with those averages in these leagues is hardly impressive seeing what washed-up ex-NBA players who could not make any NBA roster achieve e.g. in China (you know who).

[HylianNightmare]

hookul is right, if he could put it all together and just become a solid role player that would be great, but posting average stats in crappy leagues does not bode well for him.
even though i'm all for seeing another Puerto rican in the L

[Lebron23]

He rotted on the bench when he played for the Washington Wizards. The Heat or any other NBA Teams who wants a 7 footer could immediately sign him.

[StroShow4]

I saw him play in person one time in a preseason game with the Raptors. The man is just a HUGE human being, but he didn't look all that great to be honest. Really big guy though, has to be one of the tallest people I've ever seen in real life.

He'll play for Pacquiao's team (KIA Motors) in the PBA.

[Lebron23]

41-point, 20-rebound game from import not enough to carry Kia to win

Monster game by Ramos.

[BurningHammer]

Some guys should just only be big fishes in small ponds.

[Eric Cartman]

Jesus the PBA must be worse than absolute shit.

Looking like prime Wilt over there :facepalm

Puerto Rico's national team is 100 times better without him.

He has talent but is severely retarded, not borderline, full retard.
