He’s been saying this for about 5 years now. Any chance he ever steps foot back into the NBA?

If he couldn't make it back then, he has no chance to do it right now. He must've seen Tacko Fall on a roster and thought he still had a chance.

He’s tearing up some random Chinese league I’ve never heard of, so there’s that.

he should go play in BAL. Do something important rather than waste away on a bench.

I guess props to him for continuing to put in work and effort, but he last played in 2014...... it’s not happening.

Not to mention since 2014, roster spots for offensively deficient bigs who can’t score outside of 3 feet has fallen off as the game has changed. Thabeet is a relic, and a very poor one at that.

If he can board, contest layups/dunks, and be a lob threat, then he can be a 3rd string center on a team.

at this point, raptors should take a flyer on him on 10-day contracts.

Um yeah, that's because no one can make a shot. Of course he's going to rebound a lot.

Probably equal odds of being successful.

Nah man

If he'll play a Javale McGee role, he can probably be 70% of Javale McGee, which is a 3rd string center

Only in the sense that the ROC claims the right to rule all of China. They are separate countries.

A lot to unpack there, but if you are from Taiwan the answer to whether you think it is part of China is most likely 'no.' 70 percent of people in Taiwan consider Taiwan to be an independent country (and President Tsai Ing-Wen has rejected China's one country-two systems policy). International law and geopolitics, of course, make this more complex, as the majority of countries consider Taiwan to be part of China, and Taiwan would face a likely invasion/military assault if they 'declare independence.'
