Chinese Team to Block Yi From Bucks

[TheNextGen]

We should put an embargo on future Chinese players. Don't want to play by our rules? Fine. You don't need any players in the NBA.

Problem is, there is no rule about having to play with the team that drafted you.

This Is All Because Of What Happen To Wang

Teams have the right to draft him, but players have the right NOT to play for them. Just like we have the right to chose our employers. Most players will play for any team just as long as they are in the NBA. As for Yi, he can careless. He rather play in China then the Bucks.

Once again, it was just stupid for the Bucks to pick a player at that position knowing he doesnt want in.

Also, choosing him "thinking" his superiors would mature a little bit is very risky especially for the 6th pick...that would be a bad business decision.

Then why even have a ing draft if players can demand who they want to play with?

Perhaps not.

However, players cannot pick and choose their teams as they see fit and still earn a spot in the NBA. Don't like the team that drafted you? Fine. Get lost. This league pays you tens of millions of dollars for a lottery choice, so if that's not good enough for you, you probably shouldn't be here anyway.

Cuz most players want to be in the NBA so bad that they dont bust a Yi.

Cant argue with that. Thats the mentality of the draft. Unfortunately, there are just some cases where some players think they are bigger than the NBA.

ing bucks r stupid..they shouldn't even have picked Yi.
Yi has every rights to request a trade or sth
Tons of players in NBA does the same thing Yi, for ex. ZO who wouldn't even wear raptors uniform.

u can't realli blame Yi

Or you could blame every player that does that, like most of the people who are condemning Yi's officials have been doing. No player should do that, especially draft picks and especially, especially international players who have the opportunity to make more money in the US than they could ever dream of. I bet at least 80% of us would love to play for a horrible team in the NBA. You'd still be famous and filthy rich.
