  • cle wi

    CLEVELAND WIVES

  • wow. a buzzer beater against summer league chumps. great job.

  • come on ! Yi!

  • yi is great player!

    Next season, he will be better!!

    turst me!!

  • fail

  • its pretty ironic tht yi and yao ming both is number 11....

  • no

    Yi - 11 Chinese National Team - 9 NBA

    Yao - 11 NBA (Yao's wives former number) - 13 Chinese National Team

  • wives?

  • Go YI!!! Like him..

  • yi is a great player

  • remeber, yao isn't in here, so arn't any of the other great players in china basketball

  • Yi has been pretty clutch for a rookie, he hasn't hit any game winners but he has hit big shots in crunch time.

  • yi needs to shoot the ball more and get nasty with rebounding.

  • he looks very nimble

    i can see him becomin a great player

  • he is just too sin. strongger is better

  • Great player, a true talent.

  • Play more like center in China, but now looks like a forward

  • here comes the era of "YI"haha~~~

  • Yi is a solid player. I like his competitiveness. He looks like he won't back down from anyone. If Yao had his attitude, he would be dunking over dudes.

  • ...yao does have his attitude.. he just doenst bielive in the hard finish. read up before you speack

  • ...and practice spelling before you type (speack).

  • ..Nah.

  • Yi can play, because the man can block shots and the guy has shooting touch, but is not so high on his cog to be simply knocked over. I'm impressed so far this season. I got him as a late, late draft pick, just for S&G at the back end of the bench.

  • WTF was Thomas Gardner when Yi dropped 16 pts, 8 boards, and 2 blocks in a upset over the CHICAGO BULLS! FUCK ALL YOU HATERS!

  • I think that last shot means a lot more than people will think. I like the way you could see how hard he fought to get that ball. He REALLY wanted that shot. I think it could be indicative of his drive and competitiveness. You need a certain amount of drive even to become a big star in your own country. He played a solid game against the Bulls today. I think he's going to be really good once he adjusts to the NBA style of play, especially with that silky jumper he's got.

  • wait.. was it china against the cavs? why would the chinese team come all the way to US to play the cavs? or am i mistaken..

    anyhow, i drafted yi (who was like 200 something pick) in fantasy basketball way early.. hes not doing so well, but im keeping him just cuz hes awesome

  • it was the NBA Summer Pro League, China also wanted their National team to be in it. This past summer they entered several competitions around the world so they can get their National team more experience.

  • Yo this is when U.S. bball was training over the summer. Orlando Magic and Cleveland Cavaliers were able to go to China for training camp. Other teams, like the Spurs went to Greece and elsewhere.

  • oh sheeet that nigguh got swatted!

  • Couple more things I forgot to add, in the same game Rudy got blocked Yi dunked on him.

    Thomas Gardner game Yi was behind thomas how does that even count as being posterized?

  • you were probably one of those guys that expected Kwame brown to hit it big in the NBA.

  • Which big player hasn't been dunked on? Why doesn't anyone talk about Yi blocking Rudy when he was going for a layup/dunk?

  • he's got alot of years ahead of him till he becomes great

  • i like how he stuffed dat man in the beginning.. ill

  • good player

  • good song

  • Haters, fans, asians, and racists... Did you travel on a time machine? Naw. Even though I don't like him, or rather his attitude with the teams, he has so many years to develop.

  • Lol at the Milwaukee fans, Asians... oops I am one, haters, and racists. Did you people go on a time machine and watch 82 games with Yi? Naw. Everyone said Yao would be a bust as bad as Kwame, but he proved us wrong. And to be frank, even though I don't like Yi's attitude with the teams... I think he'll be okay. Maybe like 10 ppg, 7 boards, 1 bpg his rookie season. Then he'll blossom to that of a second or third scorer.

  • beastly

  • yi is really good. leave the guy alone

  • all of u saying he sux or saying hes reallly good just dont forget, hes 19! so give him time. Yao Ming sucked wen he was a rookie, look at him now(whether u like yao or not, yao is successful in the nba. i dont see him being traded anytime soon. thats how much he is to the rockets). so just give Yi some time. he could either choke wen its game time or make a decent first impression.

  • This kid will be owned in the NBA soon. Asian play is for Asian opponents this is the NBA dawg

  • True but there are exceptions like Yao.

  • cho ass up nigga yi jianlian all the way motha fuckas!!!

  • this guy is prety beast

  • He twohand dribbled and the dunk count wth man >_>

  • He's doin this shit against guys that dont really ball in the NBA..there is a big difference between 82 NBA games and the summer league..he's gonna have to guard people that are stronger and more athletic..He will be a complete bust

  • no way this dude is a bust. hes got offense of game needs to work on d, but the boi can get up and do alot of things and hes real young. your off. no way is this cat a bust

  • You'll see homie...Dont bet the house on that cat..That fool would get dogged in the NCAA..this aint the Chinese League bro..this is big boy basketball..This fool is 6-11 and boney ass fucc..I can see journey men like Mikki Moore totally dominating this cat..and just cuz he gots hops dont mean shit..Harold Minor had hops..what happened to him

  • Lol, why you hatin on him already. He just displayed what he could do. He's on the skinny side, so I really doubt he'll get rookie of the year or have good stats as a rookie. But over the years, he'll definitely get his body worked and he'll be decent down the line.

  • kevin durant 6-11 220 some odd pounds yi jianlian 6-11 238 pounds. rasheed wallace 6-11 230 pounds.

    Those are just some players off the top of my head same height less weight.

    It's not a matter of weight, I think it is obvious Yi is way more muscular than Rasheed and Durant. Don't forget about Yao, he is from China and look where is now, EASILY one of the top centres in the nba right now.

  • Look homie.. you'll see how much of a stiff YI is.. how bout you search, "play of the day : Thomas Gardener" then see the type of D YI plays..then when your thinking of a way to defend YI, go search "play of the day: Rudy Gay" .. then get off his nuts as you should

  • go type in Nocioni on KG. Just because a player gets dunked on doesn't mean he sucks. ZO/DIKEMBE have been dunked on many times, I bet they own your ass anyday.

  • how many high lights must I see of YI either blowing his defensive assignment and/or getting dunked on by smaller players..

  • kevin durant is not 6-11 rofl wtf u talking about

  • They measured him has 6-10 initially but they changed it. If you want another comparison, how about Kevin Garnett? 6-11, 220lbs.

  • Yi doesn't player Center, he is a PF.

  • I like Yi. I think he needs some experience buthe's got a nice soft jumper inside and isn't afraid of contact. He'll grow into his game.

  • is this asshole playing in the nba or not? is he finally on the bucks or what?

  • wow yi jian kicks ass.....too bad he got drafted to a mediocre team...

  • Yi's got some finese though. Yao's my man but he balls ugly as fuck.

  • i hope he gets traded. bucks suk balls. wat a waste....

  • wow 4 clips? damn he sure had a highlight. and after being drafted he had the guts to say "i dont wanna be playing for the bucks" wow. this guy is amazing.

  • He didn't say it, his manager said it. He didn't care what team he played for

  • What your saying about him isent true he doesen't care if he plays in Milwaukee or not.

  • he was 3-11 in this game. I don't like rookies who think they can call their own team out. He should play in Milwaukee and be happy with his 3 million dollars a year. Alcindor played for the Bucks, and ended up a Laker star. Has he no idea of NBA history?

  • good highlights

  • WANG ZHI-ZHi and YI JIANLIAN=NASTY!

  • Any body want a free xbox360 are ps3 goto Xpango . com sighn up and use this referal code 90569207.Trust me this is deffently not a fake u really get one I got one in less then a week.Try it u will really recive one not even lieing.

  • Serious Chopstick player

  • chinese skin animals alive for money

  • i met this guy when he was 13. he actually came over to arizona and cuz my mom was the principal of the chinese school, he got to stay with us for like a week. he was 6' 10" back then. i even have his jersey from back in the day. i think im gonna mail it to him. =))

  • yi's listed as a small forward.

  • over rated

  • Yi is a Pf or a C can anybody tell me? NBA said PF...

  • yi is a little bitch, u play for who your drafted by.

  • hopefully his chinese club will get their head outta their asses and let him come over to develop his game against nba competition, can't believe they tried to feed us that bs about them being concerned about his playing time... even if it was true just going agaist these guys in practice and having the condtioning coaches around will help him more than if he stays in china.

  • yeah and they said that milwakee has no chinese people and they are scared he wont have anybody there with him ahha

  • Then how do you expain the commentary?

  • shut the fuck who believes your shit anyway

  • that isnt yao ming la.. is yi jianlian.. his move is faster..

  • yeni allstar oyuncusu :D yao dan sonra yi de oyları toplayıp ilk senesinden itibaren ilk 5 haydı hayırlısı

  • Pointguard! the Cavs pg walk all over the big Chinese player. Chinese really need a PG bad!

  • I dont see anything wrong with his game...stop hating on the man...

  • hes gonna play foer bucks sucs that!!

  • no hes not

  • Watch on youtube: Mexican Star shooting 3's

  • The question is Kan Yi guard wade and Kobe i dont think so with out fouling them.

  • Dude, Centers aren't supposed to guard Shooting Guards...

  • hahahahaha

  • fuck y the hell Yao cant be that physical like him, shit

  • nbadimensionsDOTNET

  • Oh good, we have another freak of nature in the NBA.

  • Yi reminds me of Chris Bosh...

  • bosh is a great comparison. i hadn't seen yi play anyone other than the 6-foot coach they always showed him posting up against. he's more physical than i thought he'd be. he definitely has ability.

  • yeah kinda and plays a little like pau gasol but better footwork

  • come on, no way, this is summer league we are talking about. anyone can be good when people are playing loose, and there's not many big time players. Wang zhizhi played for chinese team too, he scored more than yi, and got more rebound. but is wang played for nba? hell no. so don't even compare in the same sentences with proven players like chris bosh or paul gosol.

  • bosh and gasol took their teams to nba playoff. and this is no where near the intensity of nba. don't tell me you think yi will do as good when he plays duncan, stoudmire, howard, boozer, bosh, wallace....etc. bosh is proven cuz he scored when playing tough opponents. and yi is just some guy who got dunked by rudy gay.

  • yo you know how many players have been critisised before they became famous...i mean yo this guy can play...watch you will have to take back what u said...and yea btw im not chinese ...GO RAPTORS!!!

  • just checked out his summer league stat, shooting poor % than wang, not even 30%, grad 4.4 rebounds per game. he can't be a SF, cuz he doesn't have ability to shoot 3 pointer, while wang jacked up 5 per game. think who he would play against, and tell me duncan, stoudemire, howard, boozer, garnett, or bosh can't guard him

  • he just doesn't have it now. like most of chinese players, he can't handle the body contact. and if he can't do much in summer leagues, you think he will do better in real NBA games? and people know he doesn't want to go to bucks. u think bucks ppl would appreciate him when he started telling nba which team he wanna go? he's not score 1 pt in nba.

  • yo reignman, how come dirk nowitzki became mvp? he was kinda overrated before his rookie season and was almost ignored before he becae superstar... even michael jordan did not make his high school team....the only problrm with yi is that he doesnt want the chance in milwaukee..

  • rosadina, i don't think you understand the game. if nowitski plays like regular power forward, do you think he has the ability to score inside regularly? he's good cuz he has the ability to shoot from outside, yi can't. he didn't even jack up 1 three pointer. and his shooting % is horrible. so, it tells us right now, he can't be a tradition pf, he can't shoot 3 nor have consistent shooting touch like nowitski, he can't grad rebound, he can't play defense. overall, he's not ready

  • he's not ready, and right now, ppl in milwaukee know there's unknown chinese player who doesn't want to play for them, he thinks milwaukee is not good for his future "business plan". keep those in mind, what do you think mgmt, coachs, players, and audiance think? do you think they will give the support he needs to develop? don't get me wrong, but remember who piston drafted 2nd overall? a young kid with a promising future. darko milicic. and did he turn out to be the player they think?

  • if there's a player, who never scored 1 pt in nba. who's not a ncaa superstar, who's unknown player (not like lebron james), and demand to be traded right after he got drafted. what do you think of that player? no ability to get double double now. do you think audiance would love him? do you think player like him? keep in mind bucks previous pick, andrew bogut sent in video tapes, (through the process like job hunting) beg bucks to draft him.

  • player would like to play with him, pass him the ball, or set up play for him? and mgmt would like to develop a player who's not audiance favor, who's doesn't get along with player.

  • and yi's backup (charlie V one time scores 48 pt in his rookie season). how many develop time yi can get if he can't perform?coach want to put a starter who score less grad less robound than backup and put him up against tim duncan, garnett, stoudmire, bosh, howard...etc? we all know milicic. no time on floor, can't develop.

  • yo straight up u need to stfu cuz u obviously dont know what ur talkin about. Yi is a down loan pf and doesnt need to pull up 3s. dirk is a bum and will always be a bum. he was a top 10 pick which means he obviously has the potential of being a big time player. Watch the man play before u open ur ignorant mouth.

  • Hey yo... go to "Rudy gay Dunks over Yi jianlian" then hit "search" ... You'll see how sorry your boy Yi is.. Get off of his dick.. you are either asian, or a Milwakee Bucks fan.. Talkin that shit

  • In that play the rim saved Rudy Gay... it was a BLOCK clearly xD

  • Just cuz he dunked on Yi doesn't mean Yi is a bad player. "SEARCH NOCIONI dunks on KG". Does that mean Nocioni is a better player? HELL NO! This is NBA we are talking about, not AND1 where DUNKS make someone a great player. If that was the case, STROMILE SWIFT & JAMES WHITE would be All-stars.

  • wow. wang didnt do anything in the summer league first of all thats why im even comparing him to bosh and gasol

  • wang didn't do anything in the summer league? man, check your stat, go to nba 2007 summer league.

    he scores more than yi, grap more rebounds than yi. block more shot than yi. come on man, yi's not even better than wang who was waived by nba team. compare to bosh or gasol? man, you believe too much in hype.

  • nice soft touch on his short jumper

  • Yiiiiiiiiiiiiii

  • wait till he faces legit NBA players and not these scrubs

  • Let's not forget people, Marcus Banks had the most Points in this summer league and Marcus Banks hasn't done much with the PHX Suns.

  • Incorrect man

    He only played one game

    Louis Williams has over 100 points in the Summer League

    Marcus's avg. is the highest.. but he did not have the most points.. in one game yes but not most points overall

  • sure he isnt doing amazing in summer league...but you gotta remember yjl is like 19 and so he has a long time to improve, noone expected him to come fresh at 19 and be the next lebron, give him some time and he will be great in the nba.

  • Lol anyone who says Yi sucks doesn't know much about basketball.

  • he doesnt suck, he just is a 3 year old

  • Don't forget this is against a summer league team. Not impressed.

  • wow, i didnt know china was in the nba. watch, africa is going to come soon. those african dudes has alot of speed and stamina. but i dont know if they got skills.

  • Dude africa is already in the nba: Mutombo(rockets) and Deng (bulls)are currently in the league and before them were manute bol who played for the washington bullets and Hakeem Olajuwon who played for the rockets.

  • Man, I'm asian and I still think Yi sucks. So does his attitude.

  • he reminds of of toni kucoc from the bulls a while back

  • yi is 100x better then toni who?

  • Im sorry, Yi was a horrible pick, I was so dissapointed who the Bucks passed up. Al Thorton(FSU) Julian Wright(Kansas) Brandon Wright(UNC) Corey Brwewer(FU). Not picking one of these guys was just a mitake...Not saying Yi is going to bring nothing to the team but it just wasn't a solid pick.

  • obviosly u dun wacth my b ball Yi is a 6ft11 SF that gives u a hudge advantage over the other team he is also very fast so if u play him at center u can out run his man he has the ability to play SF PF and C and puls he has international experience i mean i think he was a great pick and hes doing beter then thoes guys u just listed

  • talkabout a good start

  • come on, its just a summer league, not a big deal, if yi feels relax and he can shoot, lets see if he can do it in regular seasons...thats the point...

  • I think it's too early to judge. Summer game' performances don't mean much in the actual NBA games. Yi has got much to learn, just as Yao did when he first started his career in NBA. Current NBA players who have Yi's skills are not in the minority and he certainly have no height advantages over the other NBA players.

    Enough said, I do hope that Yi will do well in NBA in the coming season.

  • Belinelli will dominate fosho

  • no need to compare yi with yao. 2 different types of players. Yao is one of the few remaining true centers in the game today. and Yi is an all-around multi-position player that nellie will love. too bad the Warriors can't get him. hopefully, Wright to the bucks for Yi straight up.

  • Agreed. People are ignorantly comparing Yi to Yao just because they're both Chinese. Lame. Yi is closer in build and game to Garnett than to a 7'6", 310lb. center.

  • yi is a true power forward. yao is a true center. yi and yao basketball styles are complete opposites. yi's game is similar to garnett. some people compare yi's game to tony who? yi's game is 100x better then tony. yi will be one of the top pf's in the nba averaging around 20pts, 11 rbs, 1 st, 5 blks per game because he will start for the bucks this year beating out charlive v.

  • 5 blocks lol this guy is crazy marcus camby the defensive player of the year didnt average 5 blocks a game

  • .9 blocks at most.

  • This is true. The only reason why people are comparing Yi to Yao is because they are both from CHINA! This is like comparing Rick Smits to Dirk, both are entirely different players.

  • i agree anonymous

  • And from different countries =)

  • i would like to see yi vs oden or yi vs durrant

    who you will think will dominate in this nba Summer League

  • yi will dominate oden. yi has jumper and inside game. yi has defensive presense. my point is yi has the complete game. yi v.s. durant will it will be exciting to watch both are explosive players offensively so it could go either way

  • You must be drunk, or on drugs, or BOTH when you wrote this stupid ass chain letter.

  • yi is ganna do better then yao!

  • oden is a pug

  • good point 4646, but can ny1 when they rush full speed?

  • thats how asians play.. (asian myself) lol...

  • I thought bust all the way...But this kid is holding his own...Gain some muscle and he will be a bonafide star at power foward for years to come..I wana see him play yao though ....

  • ya but they're too tall. Its hard for them to react or defend players like kobe, wade, iverson when they rush full speed at you.

  • They are last resort defense.... and who can gaurd players like kobe anyway...Yi is a shotblocker with a a good vertical..Can Wade or Kobe guard him... if u wana go there.....

  • He made a nice bank shot, but he was being boxed out and out-maned by someone who's much shorter and much lighter than he is. He needs to bulk up. Going up against players in the summer league, which are primarily bench and young players, is different from going up against the Shaq's and the Duncan's of the world.

  • yea that was pretty sweet

  • lol greg oden is ass

  • think so

  • greg oden looks like he is 40 years old!!!

  • also look out for acie law and GREG ODEN! --------

    Trail blazers is also good better watch out man(Greg is goin to trail blazers) also...AIR GEORGIA !!!!..just had to give out props to him

  • Greg oden is so horrific that he isn't even in the summer camps anymore, just fyi

  • my hero he is better then yao but yao dont worry ur still awesome Yi is da shit tho OG BUCKS MY NEW FAV TEAM!!

  • I hope the Chinese govn't will stop this, they don't want to play for the Bucks BS. This could be the single biggest mistakes they could have ever make. If I am the Bucks I am either going to try to move him for equal value or say the hell with it, if you ain't playing for me then you can forget about ever comming to the NBA!

  • the thing u need to realize is that he is getting paid in china too. he isnt like a college player that has no income.

  • That Ji dude is better than Bogut already, but him and Bogut will be unstoppable in a couple of years time. Nothin like the Oden / Alderidge combo though.

  • from these highlights it shows hes pretty AWESOME!! at times.... if he can play a full game like that wit awesome highlights he'll be better then all the awesome centers or power forwards in his 3rd season

  • If Yao is more tough, he will be the most difficult player to handle in the NBA. But he's too brittle.

  • thats not yao

    and yao is the most difficult player to handle

    he is not weak

    ur thinking when he first came into the nba

  • Needs some seasoning before he is ready for the NBA. Oh well at least he's clutch when he needs to be.

  • great moves, he surely has the fundamentals

  • he's an okay player.
