NBA Comparison: Grant Hill 6'7'' 200 Strengths: One of the brightest hopes in Asia. Everything he does is smooth. He is a very fluid athlete who makes the game look easy. Always on balance, a set of excellent fundamentals. Has star quality. Still very young but Looks to be his listed age of 1988, and if so has a tremendous amount of potential. Has exceptional leaping ability and body control. Already has a nice frame, which will only improve. He has guard skills and could end up over 6-9. Weaknesses: Not a fiery type of charater. Will need to gain more of an attitude to be great. Still very young and lacks experience. Needs to get "nasty" and learn to be a star. He has all the tools, does he want to dominate? Notes: Was one of the youngest and still one of the top scorers at the adidas Asia All Star event. http://nbadraft.net/profiles/xuyong.asp http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/bq-Pl4CBKsc/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfvH0tqUshc
another guy from shanghi? Man they produce good ballers huh? Only 18 years old? Looked good in those vids.
He is very athletic, great finisher and passer but poor shooter. He is the best prospect in china right now.
so the Olympics team will look like this: PG: Sun Yue SG: Xu Yue SF: ? PF: Yi Jianlian C: Yao Ming No bad....
ok the dude has some hops. Not Michael Jordan hops taking off from the foul line and dunking but some good athletic skills. He could develop into a very good player and be NBA quality.
He's probably got more skills, but from those vids he looks like any number of college basketball players who end up playing oversees. But, assuming no birthdate mix up on this one, he's real young and could develop into a great player.
LOL at him taunting the guy he dunked on by pointing to his biceps. I would pay to see Yao do it just for fun.
not fiery? is the scout sure he knows it was xu yong he was looking at? maybe he was looking at liu xiao yu
he's defintely atheletic and has some ball handling skill. A great dunker too, but does he ever shoot the ball?
from the youtube video, he does seem like he's "fiery", at least i know yao wouldn't be dunking like that if he were 6 7 and had this guy's athleticism
luther head has some pretty impressive dunks from his old college days but you dont see him is the next great thing.
Hes actually an excellent midrange/3pt shooter and decent weak side shotblocker. There are plenty of Gifs made by some chinese fans on Hoopchina.
NBA: GRANT HILL CHINA:XUYONG TEAM CHINA: YAO MING YI JIANLIAN WANG ZHIZHI SUN YUE ZHU FANGYU IT'S MY TEAMCHINA!
Not that I can dunk my self but those dunks seemed... plain. I've seen guys at UofH look better dunking than that. Show me some windmill dunks and I"ll say this kid will stand out.
