    Well, that just means his agents don't want Milwaukee. Thread title is misleading, Yi did not come out and say he wants out. I'm sure hes ecstatic to play anywhere.

    Houston with a high Asian population?? More specifically Chinese?? Right........ You're better off in NY, LA, SF, and Chicago. MUCH MUCH BIGGER Asian/Chinese population. Houston has a very lopsided Vietnamese population. If you know anything about Asian ethnic customs/history/culture, you'd know they're definitely not the same thing. LOL

    ps. Atlanta has medium-sized Asian population like Houston, but probably more Chinese.

    hmm... not sold Yi will be a Buck by the start of the season; i think there'll be a big trade possibly with Golden State who picked up 6'5" 192lbs Italian guard, Marco Bellinelli; just a hunch as Nellie was supposedly real keen on Yi

    silly wabbit, only white people can be racist!

    yeah, a lot of chinese people are racist, but almost all homogenous societies are.

    YI?

    If YI refuses refuses to go to Milwauke any chance Houston could sneek in and nab him? Didn't we do this with the franchise all ready?

    No way. What would could we offer for Yi? Shane Battier and a future 1st rounder? No thanks, I'll keep Shane.

    Battier + Sura probably wouldnt make it. And sounds like Philly was really interested. They have more tradable assets because of 3 first round picks.

    Golden State desperately wants Yi too and they're loaded with assets.

    Battier+Head+Sura+2008 1st round+2009 1st rounder

    would probably not do it.

    Yi to Milwaukee... now he'll know how a white person feels when they go to China. Haha, that was the worst destination he could've ended up in. He better not become a bust because sponsorship going to Milwaukee doesn't seem very likely. He should've tried going to a coastal team. It would've been better for him and any future sponsors.

    His agent tried very hard to dissuade Milwaukee, Minnesota, and Charlotte from drafting him, but it failed. Fegan did not let Milwaukee watch Yi work out. Yi didn't get the destination he wanted, but it wasn't for lack of trying.

    I wonder how this will turn out within the weeks to follow. He's a high potential player and teaming him up with Bogut and Villanueva will make a pretty big frontcourt for the bucks future.

    Yeah, plus you can't trade two consecutive 1st round picks anyways.
