    The ball slipped it accidentally. Even Elton Brand was surprised on that play.

    Does he speak engrish? Colin Pine could use the work.

    If brand doesn't hang his left hand on the rim that is a facial block. :D

    well the ball went in.. and that is not a good high light for yi.. its more like a facial on yi .. heh well not really but you can see how Yi is wayyyy too skinny and weak and brand out powers him and powers the ball in.. if yi was stronger he could have knocked brand on his ass

    I would not call it "overpower". The only good call for that play is hang on the rim violation. Granted though, Yi does carry too skinny a body to be a serious presence in the NBA. Can he bulk up and still maintain his quickness? Only time will tell.

    There's enough food in the US so he'll bulk up. And with a good strength coach he'll be the next garnett.

    i can't really see him being a starter in the NBA. he seemed to get lost in the action in the WBC. stro-syndrome.
