Sessions VS Yi

[0BobLobLaw0]

Whos future are you more excited about?

[emunney]

I'm excited to see them on the court at the same time.

[0BobLobLaw0]

I voted for Yi because he showed brilliance early on when games mattered. But I can't wait to see what Sessions can do too.

[rilamann]

This is a great thread to create some good overall optimisim.

Both guys have a chance to be very good players and when you realy stop and think about that,it gives you some good hope for the future.

I think Yi has the talent to be better at his position than Sessions is at his. However, I think what Sessions showed this season was more impressive than what Yi showed.

Bottom line is I agree with emunney - I'd like to see them both on the court together at some point.

i'll go with that

[Nebula1]

I'll go with Ramon since Yi is really 27 years old.

[Bogut'sBallas]

I love Yi's potential, but Ramon has given us more flashes of brilliance this past month than Yi has all season long. I still believe Yi can become an all-star player within 3 seasons.

[Nebula1]

Yi showed us next to nothing. There were a few inspired times, but overall he lacked fire and grit and hunger. We'll see if it returns. Plus he's already 40.

They got Miguel Tejada, they'll get Yi.

I voted Sessions if only because the sheer statistics he dumped on the league in ten games can't be completely explained away.

That said, he could be a Brevin Knight player who plays good PG for a year or two, then gets exposed or fades.

those 13 years just flew by

It is a bummer that Sessions had to get hurt and then not get used sooner. It would have been nice to see him play in games where teams weren't playing out the season and turned into glorified AND 1 games like that Bucks/Bulls debacle.

On the plus side, at least offensively, Sessions played a controlled game and didn't get caught up in the near Globetrotter like feel that game had to it.

He's comes off to me as a humble kid who wants to get better and given he wasn't a lotto pick, a young player that probably knows nothing will be handed to him unless he earns it by refining his game.

Wow I was just gonna make a similar poll. Anyway I was in love with Yi more then anyone and I still say he has the potential to be great but I got mixed feelings now after watching Yi get burned out half way through the season. And his body is not NBA ready to be a PF and he has to play in China in the offseason and has little time to improve.

I think Sessions is gonna be a allstar PG and one of the top passing PGs in the NBA. I honestly would take Sessions over Yi.

[askdavescat]

China will never give Yi enough time off to build up his strength and become a legitimate power forward. I'm afraid he's just gonna get wore down, and begin the break down, without ever really getting an opportunity to develop his potential. That's why I voted for Sessions.

[howe070523]

Im not that excited at all.
With all that drama happened this season, this team is in disarray. Can Bucks get a coach who knows what hes doing? Can Kohl stop being a control freak and let hammond do his job? Can Redd/Mo stop being selfish and actually put the team winning as their first priority?

I had a bad dream last night about Sessions yelling " Im the next MO!"

This is my thought exactually and I think you trade Yi asap.

[Bucks_Revenge]

wow Larry Harris went out with a bang....drafted 2 players that we probably be here for a long time.


thanks Harris....if they both turn out to be good players LH can take credit for that where ever he goes.

They were saying that about Yao and he's developed nicely, both physically and skill wise. I don't see why that would be different for Yi, since there's never been reports of him dogging it or not being a hard worker.

Besides, China isn't stupid. Although I'm sure there are stubborn people in their system wanting Yi all to themselves, they still allowed him to play in the NBA. Yi not playing well just makes them look bad, so logically speaking they'd give Yi the room and chance to grow as well as possible, which is with the Bucks moreso than with them.

Gun to my head, I'd go with Yi since he still has the same potential as he did at the beginning of this year: an opportunity to become an exceptional player. He'll have the chance to improve on those subpar aspects while refining the positive aspects he has now, I don't see how he won't improve in the upcoming years. His growth curve is quicker than Yao, and it really took Yao about 5 years to become accustomed to everything in the NBA and U.S.

The sun rises in the east. Sessions is likely to be better next year, but in 2009-10, Yi will have had time to develop his natural talent.
