people b comparin YI to YAO.. lol YAO is much better than this dude, YAO pretty much carried his team on his shoulders in playoffs and in da regular season.. plus Rockets organisation is pretty much built around YAO.. wat has YI done so far?? not much.. his not even that great of an athlete.. his dunks consist of soft 2 hand dunks then hang on to da rim like a monkey .. he lookz like an idiot.. his 7ft for godsake..
lol, maybe open ur eyes.. Dwight is pure athleticism and power, have u not seen the slam dunk contest?? and so what if Dwight hangs on the rim alil bit, he puts it down with poower everytime unlike YI..
Yi is said to have a 37 inch vertical, Sun Yue has a 34 inch vertical. People saying that Yi Jianlian can't dunk is because they cant face the fact that Asians can jump, they base everything they see on Yao. Last time I checked it was "White Men can't jump" yet there are white guys who can jump. People are just ignorant and racist. Can't expect much in AmeriKKKa.
Black people have better genitics on jumping and sprinting. but with practice and proper weight training, White people and Asians can be just as good.
People will never realize that because people are to focused on race in AmeriKKKa, and people only care about what's flashy. Everyone wants to see the And1 highlights vs fundamental/team basketball. This is why TEAM USA has been eliminated in international competition. A huge disgrace, they even lost big in a game against PUERTO RICO. If Dunks and speed were everything Dajuan Wagner, James White, Desmon Mason, Stromile Swift, etc would all be the most ELITE players.
He will not be able to play like this in the NBA. The defense put on him is pathetic. You're definitely not going to see a 7 footer going coast to coast in the NBA as easy as he does. He will get his block knocked off for swinging is feet at peoples heads while hanging on the rim.
IF that's how he dunks then let him swing his feet at people in the NBA. They already doing it so what does it matter if he does? You got Tmac riding people like horses.
Man not sayin he is not good or anything but seeing him doing the same thing over and over again is so boring and personaly i realli dont think he jumps that high ok even if he jumps high cant he do a lil tricks n plus i dont even think he will be top 5 for nba drift no 1 seems to want him
The only reason why you are seeing him do the same thing is because the way this video is mixed. Look around, you'll see plenty of videos Yi doing more. And what kind of comment is "even he jumps high cant he do a lil tricks". This is not And1, NBA is not about dunking on everyone. Otherwise STROMILE SWIFT would be the BEST PLAYER.
Yao has like 0.5 athleticism, which is why he is always getting dunked on and blocked. Yao is soft in every form of the word because all he does is shoot jumpers. Yi Jianlian has already shown he can do 10x more than Yao.
Where's the rest of his game? All this shows is that he can dunk. In the CBA championship game he scored 44 points(4-6 from three, 12-12 inside, 8-8 from the free throw line) and had 3 steals, 17 rebounds and 5 blocks. Where are those highlights?
not the best songs... but good dunks... good agility and athleticism for a big man... but does he like physical contacts and box out for rebounds down low against guys his size in the NBA...?
This was the best Yi Jianlian video I've seen, because it was more than just open dunks. It showed that while he's rail thin, he plays hard and he can be very aggressive down low. I saw a couple nice boards and drop steps in this video, and of course it's great for a 7 footer to have that type of athletic ability and agility. Thanks for posting this!
The guy barely gets above the rim he is 7 feet with long arms Dwight Howard has a 35 inch vertical and he gets a his head above the rim at times, this guy vertical is not anything near 30 he is 7 feet he should be dunking.
Both of you guys are idiots. This guy is dunking with two hands with his elbows above the rim. I think that is showing a little elevation. He has a 37 inch vert with a 9'2 reach which means he can get more extansion than Howard or any other big man in the league.

i dun understand why there are people saying Yi cannot jump... are they just stupid or what?
the way i see, he's jumping higher than most of the 7-footers in the league. in fact, only a few players at his size can jump higher, on this planet.

Are you joking? He was constantly getting his elbows above the rim and taking off several feet away from the basket.
The guy def plays like he has a 37-38 inch vert.

You know the more I think about it, Yi isn't just more athletic than Yao, he's arguably the most athletic international big man ever.
Toni Kukoc and Pau Gasol are perhaps the two most swift International players but neither could finish above the rim like this.
Yao was right on with saying Yi's game is more like Amare and KG than his own.
