Mock NBA Draft

Another mock draft- this one has Chinese stud Yi Jianlian going to the Bulls at #9.
I would love to see that, but from what I have seen about this guy, I think he'll go higher. The Chicago Bulls are drooling over the marketing potential with 1 billion people in China and a large Chinese-American population in Chicago. That could be a lot of Chicago Bulls merchandise! --

Here is another one from a different FoxSports writer--

I don't think that the Bulls will draft Yi. He doesn't seem to fit their team, and there have been a lot of busts out of China. I don't think that Yi has even worked out with any other players, which can hide a lot of flaws in a player. It's starting to sound like the Bulls will draft Smith or Hawes, but I wouldn't be surprised if they traded the pick (for Kobe?-yeah right).

there has been a ton of talk about that possibility however i think it would have to be a 3 team deal so LA could get a superstar in return that the bulls do not have

Just out of curiosity... who are the "lot of busts out of China?"
 
the only person i can think of is that taller guy that played for the Mavs for a seaon or two but is no longer in the league i dont think. I can not think of his name.... Wang Zu Zu perhaps ?? or maybe i am thinking of another sport

Wang Zhizhi for Dallas, cut by the Clippers

Depending who you talk to- Yao. How many times has he been out of the 1st round. I know he's still young for a center, but he's not as dominant as he should be.

Menk Bateer

Those are actually the only 3 from China, I was lumping in a guy from South Korea too - Ha Seung Jin

Yao and Wang came into the NBA with just a ton of hype, and Wang is not in the NBA anymore and never did anything. I don't think Yao is very good-nowhere near the hype he got coming into the NBA and certainly not the next Shaq.

I don't know how sold I am on any international player coming into the NBA right now. It all just smells like Darko...
