Phuket town my friend, maybe the Saphan Hin area but boy, does it stink over there.

Played tennis over there about a month ago, the smell of the garbage dump was overwhelming. Off topic I know, sorry, but I think there is basketball over there.

Suan Luang park, in Phuket town, have several basketball fields. There was not much usage in Sunday afternoon.

There was also badminton fields as well as many exercise machines for people to use.

Upon drafting 7'4" (2.25 meters) tall Mark Eaton, Frank Layden the then GM for the NBA's Utah Jazz was asked about the players questionable basketball skills.

Layden answered : " doesn't matter, you can't teach tall ! "
