Zero Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Puerto Rico will not have its center Peter John Ramos for their opening match of the Copa Tuto Marchand tomorrow, Tuesday, before the selection of Canada. But there is no evil that blows nobody any good. The absence of Ramos is that the prominent pivot yesterday traveled to Houston to attend two days of private training with the team at the Rockets, with a view to returning to the NBA. "Peter is now in Houston with (Felix)" Felo "Rivera to train for two days with the Rockets and will be back to Puerto Rico on Wednesday. Only lost one game in the Tuto Marchand Cup. Actually, the Rockets wanted to have it back in a week, but due to the Palm with the national team, will stay only for two days, "said one of its agents, Todd Washington. "Houston was one of the teams most interested in now and see it this summer Peter will have his chance to impress. With Yao Ming out for the entire season due to injury, Peter can help fill that vacancy in the center position because he has stature and skills similar to those of offensive Yao. " Houston, who also lost the services of retired veteran Dikembe Mutombo, has only a pivot on the payroll after signing recently to Australian David Andersen, who comes to help the Regal Barcelona to win the title of the ACB league in Spain. However, the Rockets are not the only team interested in Ramos. "The Atlanta Hawks also come to see Ramos in Puerto Rico during the Tournament of the Americas and other franchises may also come to watch," added Washington. http://translate.google.com/translate_t# We have nothing to lose. If anything he'll just be an all star in the D-League again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 The only good thing about him is that he's 7'3 but the market for big men is pretty weak so I guess it doesn't hurt to take a look at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt chamberlain Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 too bad things never worked out with him and the wizards. well he has height, and the rockets will be without yao, so i hope he can bring something to houston.

Dr. Feelgood Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 He really never got a chance in Washington, did he? Cause they always had Haywood and Etan to play the center roles. Anyways, it might work out for the Rockets, we'll see though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt chamberlain Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 ^^^i'm not really sure, but i find it weird that a 7 footer couldn't prove himself to get playing time over brenda(back then he didn't deserve the "n" at the end of his name) and etan "same height as ben wallace, but only 1/50th of the player" thomas. maybe it was poor coaching decisions or maybe he just wasn't that talented. maybe another wiz fan on here can inform you about him, because i really don't know much about him.

Owner Real Deal Posted August 18, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 He didn't play in Washington because he has the IQ of a doorknob, and he's much more finesse over physical, which isn't a good thing because the Wizards have been a terrible defensive team for the last decade now. Ramos is just another six fouls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I actually thought he was decent in DC. That is, whenever he saw the floor, which was very minimal. He made a lot of stupid fouls, but he was decently athletic and tough, plus he has a lot of height to accommodate for some of his disadvantages. Also, he's a decent midrange shooter.

Revis Island Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 The only thing useful about him is that he's 7'3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
