Looks like Gasol is not very good in open space or he was just not trying. Yi is a showboater. It'd be a foul in the NBA to hang on the rim that long.
A lot of young guys like to show off a bit in their dunks. Chris Webber would constantly twist himself off the rim in his Golden State days. But he got over it, when he hurt his shoulder. The first time Yi gets a technical in the NBA for hanging on the rim will be the end of that practice.
If you sift through Stromile's video, I bet you can find 100 dunks like this. But we all know the story of Stro...
Nice dunks.In a recent interview,when Yi was asked how he felt about Kobe's 81 points,he said Kobe got a little bit lucky, and said hope to score 82 points one day when he joined NBA.
i sure hope he was joking or being sarcastic.. cause he'd have to make the NBA first.. i hate young players that talk trash and crap when they havent even set their foot in the league or proven anything. .so till then he should just shut the f up.. im sure he's gonan piss kobe off by saying that too its just like how everyone on this board got pissed off at like say andrew bynum when he siad he was the next shaq and was gonan kill yao or something like that.. anyways yi's an idiot if he said that
It is more like a wishful thinking,I think.A guy asked can you score 82 points,Yi said "I hope". Maybe it because my poor strslation,I don't want ruin Yi's image around here. Anyways, here is the video link,anyone with better traslation skills like pryuen may want help me out here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvVM66hODoA
Watched your clip, richter911. Yi praised Kobe a lot and he is very humble. You have distorted the message pretty much here.
Yea Yi totally gave props to Kobe. He said "I wish" as a joke when he was asked if he was going to score 82.
Um no the only one who's trash talking here is YOU, unless you're an idiot who didnt even finishing reading the post before replying. Did Yi say that Kobe was slow and that he's so much better, like how Andrew Bogut referred to Longley? No. Its just a young player humbly stating his ambitions that he HOPES to someday surpass Kobe's miraculous task... Dont be one of those peeps trying to ruin reputations because of dumb and lazy accusations. Besides Kobe's a jerk
Adding some strength will do him very good on both ends of the floor, which is his biggest weakness right now IMO. I see him as a pf in the NBA.
The guards do NOT know how to feed the post at all. There were times when a simple lob pass would've gotten him a dunk but they chose to drive in wildly and chuck up a bad shot. I thought he showed good activity...his athleticism is very apparent. He needs a strong presence next to him, though. He didn't shoot too well either.
