On June 29, Beijing time, Yi Jianlian was picked by the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA 07 draft in sixth place, and the news of the Bucks' "forced marriage" before the game made Yi Jianlian a little worried. Sure enough, when the Celtics came in fifth place with Jeff Green, the Bucks handed over Yi Jianlian's name. In this regard, ESPN expert Charlie Forde's assessment is; A cunning choice, the Bucks want him, but Yi Jianlian doesn't necessarily want to go.
Indeed, the Bucks are by no means Yi Jianlian's favorite team.
First of all, the weather in Milwaukee is not ideal. Yi Jianlian was born and raised in the south, and apart from the occasional national team training camp and overseas competitions, the UAE rarely has the experience of living in the north for a long time. Even if it trains in the United States, the UAE chooses a coastal city like Los Angeles, and the Milvo base is in the middle of the United States, and the climate change will be the first step to test the UAE.
Secondly, Milwaukee does not have a large Chinese American population, and one of the important reasons why Yao Ming is so popular in Houston is that Houston has a large Chinese American population. Chinese players who play abroad are obviously more ideal to have the support of their own fans. Whether it's Boston (Celtics) or Oakland (Warriors), these places are all eligible for the UAE.
From the perspective of player psychology, sometimes the high expectations of the fans can cause the players to collapse. The criteria by which American fans judge players is simple, and if Yi Jianlian can adapt to their requirements in the short term, maybe the fans will like him. Once Yi Jianlian plays unsatisfactory, he is likely to be bombarded by fans, which is not a good thing for Yi Jianlian, who has been living in "sweet words", not to mention that he is not yet 20 years old.
In terms of economic interests, without the support of a strong Chinese population, Yi Jianlian's commercial value will shrink a lot.
Finally, with the team's tactical run-in problem, Yi Jianlian's advantages and disadvantages are very prominent. But with his current state, it is difficult to adapt to the rhythm of the NBA all at once. If you can't choose a good start, you are likely to fall into the same "strange circle" as Wang Zhizhi back then - the position is unknown, and the playing style is not clear.
At present, the entire Bucks team has two pure centers and four power forwards. Among them, Andrew Bogut and Charlie Villawanho are the team's well-deserved main players. Ilyasova, Gudzuric and Reina are all very strong, and the UAE may not have too many opportunities in such a team full of youth on the inside.
Moreover, in the Bucks, the boss is Michael Reed. There are also outside players like Simmons and Mo Williams, most of the interior players are in coolie roles, and judging from the current situation of the United Arab Emirates, it will take time to hone as a "blue collar", and it is not in line with his technical characteristics.
So, when the Bucks drafted the UAE, it was not difficult to explain his loneliness.

It's too bad I wish I had dropped the 18th pick and been drafted by the Warriors better than the third.
Historically, there have been a lot of potential rookies that have been wasted in the selection of high picks. The Hawks can't be suitable for Xiao Yi First of all, if Xiao Yi wants to play, the team must have a speed-oriented organizational guard who must be good at breaking points and leading the offense In addition to the Warriors, Suns, Nets, Mavericks, Raptors, in fact, there are few teams that are the most suitable for Xiao Yi.

It can't be said to be a bad thing, I can learn a little, at most it can only be said that it is not a good thing, I don't want him to go there, but he goes there, sad, sad, disappointed, my heart is cold, wow, wow, wow
-
It's not a bad thing to be at the top of the line.
-
Being picked by the Eagles is the best.
-
He was drafted by the Bucks with the sixth pick in the first round, and in the Bucks, Yi Jianlian performed well, scoring 29 points and 10 rebounds against the Bobcats.
-
Yi Jianlian was drafted with the 12th pick in the NBA that year and was traded to the Bucks. The main thing to look at is his Chinese influence, not his personal ability.
-
Yi Jianlian was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the sixth pick in the first round of the NBA Draft in 2007.

The NBA is the highest level of basketball in the world. If you have the right conditions, I think there are still many people who want to go to the MBA for training. After all, you can play against the best players in the world.
In our country, there are only four people who have played in the NBA. These four are Wang Zhizhi, Battle, Yao Ming, and Yi Jianlian. Among the four, the highest pick is Yao Ming, the champion in 2002 and the first champion in Asia.
Of course, Yao Ming did play at the level of the top pick in the NBA. And the second highest ranked is Yi Jianlian. In 2007, Yi Jianlian was selected by the Bucks with the sixth pick.
Next, I am mainly concerned that since the Bucks have selected Yi Jianlian with the sixth pick, why only let Yi Jianlian only play for one year and then trade away? There are several main reasons for this.
First: Yi Jianlian's performance did not meet the expected level, you must know that the player who can be selected by the Bucks with the sixth pick shows that the Bucks still recognize the player very much. It can be said that it is taken very seriously.
However, Yi Jianlian did not hand over the goals expected of Yi Jianlian by management in his rookie season. Because Yi Jianlian only handed in the average rebounds per game in his rookie season, this is completely inconsistent with the value of the No. 6 draft. The Bucks initially positioned Yi Jianlian as an all-round player who can shoot inside and outside, just like the Raptors' Bosh.
Second: The relationship with teammates is not very good, basketball is a team game. If the teammates don't get along, it's almost impossible for this team to win.
Moreover, such a team will not go very far. On the Bucks, Yi Jianlian's relationship with other teammates is not very harmonious. Because the personality of the UAE is relatively quiet and introverted.
It's hard to get together with other teammates, let alone get together, with such a character. And most importantly, the UAE is Chinese, that is, yellow. You know, the yellow race will be excluded in the NBA, and many local players are not optimistic about the yellow race.
Therefore, even if the UAE mainly communicates with other players, the opponent may not bother with the UAE.
Third: Many players who play in the NBA are basically American, and a few have European players. Therefore, I usually communicate in English.
As a Chinese, the UAE was not an English major during college, so there were certain barriers to communication. So English proficiency is also a major factor.
Fourth: Yi Jianlian's intentions The UAE was reluctant to sign with the Bucks at first, the UAE was more inclined to play in the big ball city, and the Bucks can be said to be the northernmost team in the NBA, which is too cold in winter and has few fans. So at first, the UAE refused to sign with the Bucks, although later the boss of the Bucks came to China and persuaded the UAE with full sincerity, but it also left a gap in his heart, so the UAE did not meet expectations in all aspects after that.
This can also be one of the important reasons.
-
The reason is that Yi Jianlian's performance is very unstable. Yi Jianlian still performed well in the early stage of the Bucks, but as the season deepened, his state fluctuated.
-
Yi Jianlian's rookie season was mediocre and didn't live up to the Bucks' expectations of him. Because of Yi Jianlian's introverted personality, the relationship with his teammates is not very harmonious.
-
Reasons why you only play for a year and trade away:1In this year, Yi Jianlian did not play the expected performance of the Bucks.
2.I don't get along well with my teammates3The team questioned his age, feeling that he was an older rookie with no development potential.
4.Yi Jianlian wanted to play in big city teams at first, and he was not very willing to sign with the Bucks.
-
The parties are not suitable. The reason for the transaction is nothing more than that the employee does not meet the employer's expectations and replaces the next one.
-
Personality is one thing, and more importantly, he has the same problem as Zhou Qi: he is afraid of physical confrontation, and the big man of more than two meters can only throw medium and long shots outside, if he puts the current small ball play, he may mix better!
-
There were fewer stars ranked after the sixth pick in the first round, and there were more excellent role players and boutique players, such as Noah with the ninth pick, Thaddeus Young with the twelfth pick, Nick Young with the sixteenth pick, Wilson Chandler with the twenty-third pick, and Gasol Jr. with the eighteenth pick in the second round.
-
1. Pau Gasol; 2, Joakim Noah; 3, Carl Landry; 4, Nick Young; 5. Marco Belinelli; 6, Aaron Afraro; 7. Ramon Sessions.
-
Missed Gasol Jr., Arnold, Brewer, Landry, Nick Young, Belinelli, Conley, Jeff Green.

Speaking of Yi Jianlian, I believe everyone will be familiar with it. As one of the most talented players in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, he announced his participation in the NBA draft in 2007 and was selected by the Bucks with the sixth pick in the first round, becoming the highest-picked Chinese player in the draft after Yao Ming. But to everyone's surprise, the Bucks originally selected Yi Jianlian, but then did not regard him as the cornerstone of the team, but sent him to the New Jersey Nets after his rookie season, why is this?
Looking back at the eve of the 07 draft, when the Bucks were the first No. 6 pick, their goal was a top interior like Horford, but unexpectedly the Hawks took the lead, and they had no choice but to choose Yi Jianlian, and in fact, the first target team of the United Arab Emirates was not the Bucks, and when the Bucks signed Yi Jianlian, the Bucks did have plans to cultivate the United Arab Emirates, otherwise he would not have been given the opportunity to start nearly 50 games.
But to the disappointment of the Bucks, the team gave Yi Jianlian the opportunity, averaging 25 minutes per game can only contribute 8 points and 5 rebounds, although there are occasional highlight moments in the game, but the overall performance still did not meet the team's expectations, compared to the Bucks was planning to find an inside like Horford as the core training, and Horford played 10 points and 9 rebounds in the first season of the Hawks with a quasi-double-double data, although not much stronger than Yi Jianlian, but he was able to integrate into the team atmosphere more quickly, This is what Yi Jianlian lacks.
After many years, according to some NBA celebrities, Yi Jianlian's talent and strength are indeed worthy of recognition, but his personality determines that if there is no Bole, it is difficult for him, a thousand-mile horse, to achieve the success of Yao Ming. To put it in layman's terms, Yi Jianlian's personality is too introverted and dull, he doesn't have Yao Ming's sense of humor, and he doesn't have much communication with his teammates, he always bears everything silently alone, so that he has a sense of distance from his coach and teammates, and it is difficult for him to trust such Yi Jianlian, so it is difficult for him to get too much tactical position on the field, and on the contrary, Yao Ming was much more delicate at the beginning, such as the relationship with O'Neal, although he did not communicate directly on the field, but Yao Ming passed a letter, which made O'Neal's father have a good impression of him, even said "Yao Ming is a good person, you have to treat him well".
In addition, the reason why Yi Jianlian was abandoned by the Bucks also has a lot to do with his style of play. As we all know, Yi Jianlian was selected by the Bucks with the sixth pick in the first round, relying on his outstanding athletic talent, which may even be ashamed of Yao Ming, the champion in 02. But in addition to outstanding athleticism, Yi Jianlian's style of play was not compatible with the mainstream playing style of the NBA at that time, in that era when interior players played hard under the basket to create damage, Yi Jianlian liked to use shooting as the finishing scoring method, this style of play may be reused in today's small-ball era, but at that time, Yi Jianlian was a typical "non-mainstream", so the Bucks finally chose to give up after examining him for a year, admitting that he had made a wrong choice, and Yi Jianlian was also labeled as a "parallel import".
-
1 season. Yi Jianlian played very well in his rookie season, and his performance was favored by many teams. So after one season with the Bucks, he was traded to the Nets.
-
Having played for the Bucks for a total of 1 year, Yi Jianlian is an excellent basketball player with outstanding strength and explosiveness.
-
After playing for the Bucks for one year, it was Yi Jianlian's rookie season, averaging double-doubles in points per game, having plenty of playing time, and winning the first place in the Eastern Rookie Rankings.
-
The Bucks selected Yi Jianlian with the sixth pick that year, which was a helpless move。In order to maintain the balance of the league's teams in the draft, the team with the worst record last season can give priority to players, the worst expectation of the Bucks team is to sign the third-place player, Horford and Conley will be selected by other teams in the third and fourth picks, these two players are the Bucks team's favorite players in this draft, the Bucks' draft pick suddenly slipped from third to sixth, and they can only choose a yellow Asian player Yi Jianlian. This is not the most ideal expectation for the Bucks team, and Yi Jianlian's team does not want Yi Jianlian to go to the Bucks team, which is a small-ball city with no great commercial value, which is a relatively low starting point for Yi Jianlian's career.
By mistake, Yi Jianlian signed a player contract with the Bucks team。It was Yi Jianlian who started his wandering career in the NBA league after only completing his rookie season with the Bucks and was sent to the Wizards team, and participated in the NBA draft in 2007, Yi Jianlian only stayed in the NBA league for five years before returning to the CBA league.
Yi Jianlian was able to rank sixth in the draft, which also proved his strength. With his basketball talent, he hopes to surpass Yao Ming back then, but his personality is too introverted, he can't handle complex interpersonal relationships in the cruel NBA league, and his teammates on the team have always been strangers.
The player the Bucks wanted the most that year was Horford, who could make up for the lack of forward personnel on the Bucks team. However, judging from the later performance, Horford is only a rotation player, and even if the Bucks team chooses Horford, I am afraid it will not do much. Kobe Bryant once said that if he and Yi Jianlian become partners, the world will see a different Yi Jianlian, and Yi Jianlian may have a different career if he came to the Lakers team.
The Bucks began an upswing after signing Antetokounmpo.
The technique is not up to par, and he doesn't score so many shots, it's a shame, it's better to give the opportunity to others, the Chinese team will pass him less next time, and he will throw it in vain.
Name: Yao Ming.
Number: 11 Position: Centre. >>>More
After watching Yi Jianlian play in the CBA League, it is easy to understand why NBA general managers and scouts are so optimistic about Yi Jianlian's potential. Just when his body was still very thin, Yi Jianlian was already a very good athlete, his running ability on the court was very strong, and the jump shooting posture was also very stretched, Yi Jianlian could even hit a jump shot from 20 yards away. Although Yi Jianlian was unable to defeat the Bayi team led by experienced former NBA player Wang Zhizhi in the CBA Finals, Yi Jianlian still showed people a lot of his exciting talent and potential, especially on the offensive end. >>>More
Hidden Strength??? Cut! He didn't have the strength in the first place. >>>More
The contract is no problem, after all, Yi Jianlian represents the Chinese market, which is equivalent to banknotes! NBA bosses are not so stupid, and Yi Jianlian is so stylish in the Asian Championships, and his step-back jumper is so sharp, he is simply Asia's Nowitzki! Rest assured! Someone will want it!
