新消息 ：比赛结束后雄鹿GM 对YJL的评论及接触，我觉得不可能被交易了
A big 1st impression
Yi meets Bucks' officials, shows them his game
Buy a link hereThat's something that's allowed in an NBA Summer League game, in which players don't foul out. But really, the fouls hardly mattered.
Yi's explosive dunks, polished perimeter game and one emphatic block were enough to keep Milwaukee Bucks officials salivating over the chance to add the 7-foot Chinese power forward to their lineup. He finished with 23 points on 7-for-15 shooting and 9-for-12 free-throw shooting in an 86-77 loss to the Grizzlies.
Bucks general manager Larry Harris, director of player personnel Dave Babcock and coach Larry Krystkowiak were in the audience at the Cox Pavilion, along with Bucks players Bobby Simmons and Charlie Villanueva.
Clearly, they were impressed.
"Defensively, he's a quick jumper and he can get out on pick-and-rolls," Harris said. "He's got great hands, he's got quick feet on the offensive end.
"He's got a post game; he can shoot it right-handed or left-handed. He can step out and make shots. He's got a great sense for the game. He's a (true) power forward."
Yi (whose name is pronounced E JEE-ahn LEE-ahn) and second-year Memphis forward Rudy Gay dunked on each other during one scintillating first-half exchange, with Yi getting a block on one end of the floor and finishing with a powerful dunk as Gay fouled him.
A few minutes later, Gay responded with a thunderous dunk of his own, one called a "posterizer" in National Basketball Association circles, and taunted Yi after the throw-down to draw a technical foul.
"He's definitely going to be a good player in the future," Gay said. "Defensively, he can get a little better, but offensively, he's got it all. He has good range. Usually, that's an adjustment when you come into the league, but he has that already. He's pretty good."
Harris also liked the action between Yi and Gay, which got the attention of the crowd.
"For him to get a chance to guard an athletic wing player like Rudy Gay, who is also a young player in the league, and not back down and take on the challenge, it just shows how determined he is as a player," Harris said.
"It shows how special he can be."
Chinese team officials declined a request for an interview with Yi after the game, and he was taken down a back stairway to the locker room.
New Memphis coach Marc Iavaroni got a good idea about Yi in the forward's first 29 minutes of summer-league play.
"He was more physical than we read," Iavaroni said. "You have to scheme him. He's very confident out there. He showed no jitters."
The Bucks' coaching staff and scouts will have another chance to watch Yi today, when Team China plays Sacramento, and on Sunday, when it faces Cleveland.
Yi's solid showing followed his first face-to-face meeting with Bucks officials Thursday at the team's hotel in Las Vegas.
Harris and Krystkowiak represented the Bucks at a meeting that lasted about one hour, with Yi bringing an interpreter and the Bucks' officials bringing one of their own.
"We talked about the opportunity in Milwaukee," Harris said. "He was very respectful and, I thought, very engaging."
Harris hand-delivered a letter from the Bucks' owner, Sen. Herb Kohl, inviting Yi and representatives of his Chinese Basketball Association team, the Guangdong Tigers, to Milwaukee to see the city and tour the Bucks' facilities.
"We encouraged him to come to Milwaukee and meet our civic leaders, the people of Milwaukee, our owner and our fans," Harris said. "And just to see what Milwaukee is all about."
No date has been established for such a meeting, and Yi plans to be in Las Vegas with his Chinese team until late next week.
"We made it clear we are not going to trade him," Harris said. "I thought he was a tremendous kid. We got a sense he was excited about playing in the NBA, and we extended the invitation."
Harris said he was willing to go to China to meet with representatives of the league and the team.
"There was a lot of good dialogue," Harris said. "We will continue to talk. It was very promising."
Harris acknowledged that a further step would be direct talks with Yi's representatives, American agent Dan Fegan and his Chinese representatives. No progress has been made, even though Harris has said adamantly that he does not want to trade Yi.
And that conviction had to grow stronger after Yi's impressive showing Friday.
Seven or eight teams could be on Yi's wish list, but it's unclear whether any of those teams is pursuing a trade actively. Those teams are the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks, Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors and, possibly, the Philadelphia 76ers.
Harris spent much of the second half Friday giving interviews to Chinese reporters and explaining the Bucks' reasons for selecting Yi.
"It just shows you how much respect they have for Yi as a player, how much potential they see in him, and how intriguing he is as a young prospect," Harris said.

2、GAY认为YI防守需要提高，但进攻已经啥都有了
3、与YI 的一个小时谈话很愉快，不过也很老套，没有去雄鹿的日程表。。
反复强调不会交易YI We made it clear we are not going to trade him。
我个人认为YI 真的和鹿有缘，99%是鹿的人了。。。。。。。。。。
