    you're joking right?

    Dude I know Yi's not really good but how can you compare him to Sheldon, whose name already kinda reeks of suck-juice? Whereas Yi can be described as ,at most, poor-rotational-defender-and-passive kinda suck, Sheldon is like "Wow, this guy plays pro basketball?" kinda suck.

    Get you sucks right ;)

    Why do you have to bring up Yi? Yi compared to Shelden is like comparing Pau to Marc Gasol...check out Yi's stats before you comment...

    Yes lets pick on the Chinese kid...yes its always the Chinese

    You see his college accolades and you think, "How can this man suck so much?" I literally cannot understand how this guy is not at least a capable NBA player.

    Wish I could rep that. But in all seriousness, i'd rather have candance. No one would box her out for fear of the femi-nazis accusing them of sexual assault.

    This is what gets GMs fired. You Have to pick the best available player... A player you pick for a particular hole in your team probably wont be the best player available on the board.

    There are many examples of this... The Aaron Brooks pick comes to mind we already had 2 PGs when we picked him up... look how that turned out.

    They are the Atlanta Hawks. Why draft Marvin Williams when you could have Chris Paul? Management was stupid. Marvin Williams was the 3rd small forward they drafted in the first round in 2 years. They then followed it up with Sheldon Williams who had bust written all over him

    A lot of you are player hating because he's unattractive and for some reason it bothers you he has a relatively good looking + talented wife. He's no worse than scrubby white players like Nick Collison or Tyler Hansborough, it's just that you expect pasty guys to miss wide open dunks. Don't hold Shelden's race against him in an attempt to bring home down to your level and feel better about yourself, he is beautiful to Candace and that's all that matters.

    Really? 5th pick who didn't average more than 5 ppg in his 4th year better than 7th pick who averaged 12/7 in his 3rd year?

    Marvin Williams had that "potential" which made his stock so high. With Shelden, everyone knew he had pretty low ceiling.
