Yi Jianlian is the sixth overall pick in the NBA draft. Was Bogut the top scholar of the year?

Yi Jianlian is the main core of China Men's Basketball Team. Although he is old now, his state and peak period have declined, but he is still the first man in the active men's basketball team! At that time, the United Arab League was unstoppable in the CBA, but after entering the NBA, he did not play his real strength! So, as the sixth overall pick in 2007, is Yi Jianlian, the elder brother of China Men's Basketball Team, the first overall pick in the draft?

First of all, let's review the five players in front of the United Arab League. The top scholar Auden, the son of natural selection, is the absolute potential stock that the American people pay attention to. Eyes open, no one can choose him as the top scholar. Durant, the active No.1 small forward, the ability of a historical star needs no elaboration. Horford, who is called "the blind appraiser" by fans because of his unpretentious style, has won five All-Stars. Conley, fourth overall, top point guard, 30 million contract. Jeff Green, the fifth "brother-in-law", has transferred to eight teams, but his career average is 13.2 points, which is a qualified starting level. Compared with the top five, Yi Jianlian's NBA career is bleak.

So why did the Bucks choose the United Arab League at that time? In fact, when the Bucks ranked third from the bottom in the league, they could have won the lottery and chose power forward al horford of the University of Florida, but as a result, they fell to sixth place in the lottery. The team already has a combination of Bogut+Reed+mo williams and lacks a suitable potential power forward, so Yi Jianlian is the second best choice. So what was Yi Jianlian's real strength at that time? The scout report pointed out that "Yi Jianlian is an excellent attacker, holding the ball and shooting well, and he can also stage a wonderful dunk in the game. His basketball IQ is extremely high, he can participate in fast break and his speed is impeccable. Only 19 years old, with unlimited potential.

Disadvantages are that it is difficult to find your own position, playing inside is not enough, and playing small forward has no stable three-point ability. "The template of the United Arab League is kg and Pau Gasol. His upper limit is enough to make the bucks moved, and his excellent physical fitness also makes the bucks see his infinite possibilities. As written in the scout report, Yi Jianlian failed to find a suitable position in the NBA throughout his career. For bucks, it was just a gambling failure, but Yi Jianlian was absolutely a piece of rough jade at that time, and it was absolutely reasonable and genuine to be selected as the sixth overall pick. what do you think?
