He needs to work on his outside shooting more. Nash has said it before. If you are not tall or not super athletic, you gotta have great outside shooting so the defender needs to get closer to you, which means you have a better chance of blowing by him. I've seen some Yuta games in Suns and his outside shooting was terrible. I know he was mostly playing in garbage time but due to his height, he needs to have great outside shooting to survive in NBA.
I want to see in the future of the NBA, three big asians superstars, one Chinese, one Korean, and one Japanese. Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are already there. The Koreans has one coming, he's only a junior in high school and he's already committed to Maryland. Unfortunately it seems there are no big time Japanese players either from Japan or growing up in the U.S. Maybe K.J. Matsui, but he's not playing well; a junion, not even a 10 ppg season, and doesn't seem ready for the NBA yet.
He doesn't look strong. I always hoped he'd go back in the NBA, but since he's not, I'd assume he's not that good yet. Also, this video really showed him getting blocked. I'm especially not impressed by that. Get better Yuta, or at least play at your full potential. I really like to see a new asian superstar in the NBA.
wait when did he ever make it in the nba? Never notice or seen him before lol. I no he left now, but any1 no when he played?

Japanese best guard Ryota Sakurai of 194cm and Takeuchi twins of 205cm have a chance to challenge the NBA, I think.

Want a spelling lesson? It's "where" not "were". I was just providing information, not trying to brag or anything.

The voice you're hearing is none other than my brother, John Tyler, who is currently announcing for the Anaheim Arsenal.
