So remember when I was effusive on the Yi pick?
Yeah. It’s not going so well.
It’s as if the Chinese handlers are now going to attempt the impossible and hide a seven foot tall Chinese guy in America during these summer months because they don’t want Milwaukee to have him.
Even though Milwaukee was going to go with whom they felt was the best player available, and those whom are handling the E knew that. Even though they were willing to risk the wrath of Charlie Villanueva to do it. And Charlie Villanueva is not a man you want to anger.
But if sticks disassemble from butts, and Yi actually does come to Milwaukee. It may be a good thing.
“The biggest thing I saw when I left there (Qatar) is a young man who will play for us and get playing time,” [Bucks Scout Scott] Howard said. “I personally felt if we were fortunate to draft the kid, he would play major minutes as a rookie. He’s a seasoned player, as young as he is. He does not come in here intimidated; he does not come in here scared. He comes in here ready.”
I just think he’ll come in readier for the Golden Stae Warriors or something lame like that.
Personally I liked it when Villanueva and Bosh shared a front court it was like the land before time. How is it that they were the only two dinosaurs that escaped extinction?

Well, at least for the Villanuevastadon, being hairless allowed for greater foot speed. Thus in the race for food, they always won.
As for Bosh. Well, the tremendous upside potential of the Bosh allowed God to pass on the clearly more polished anklyosaur.
Thus denying us the spiked backs we so richly deserve, thanks God!
