Ainge says deal unlikely

[ryan nelson]

Quick question.  What is it about Yi that makes you think he will be a
star?  Have you seen him play? If so, against whom and what did he do
that impressed you? I am curious because my dislike for him is just
based on what I have read and his stats, I have not seen him play.

What am i missing?  Why should I be excited about a 22 year old 7 footer
who has faced little real competition, will likely have an adjustment
period, and does not appear bulky enough to be an inside player?  I am
really interested to know.

Thanks,

rmn

I'd like to see Ryan in a home, so I'm rooting for Yi, who is the only
one of that group I can see becoming a star. I'm starting to worry that
Yi won't even be there though. If the Suns trade into the three spot,
they might take him, then Horford goes to the Grizzlies and we're stuck
with sixth men and complementary players.
