Here Yi, Here Yi...The 2007-08 Milwaukee Bucks

[TJ_4_CV31]

Four games in and I'm ready to proclaim that the Bucks not only will make the playoffs (assuming relative health), but also challenge the Detroit Pistons for the Central Division crown.

I was down on this team pre-season due to the expected gelling period between a new coach / system and new and returning players. I also didn't know how long it would take Yi to adjust to the NBA regular season. Well, it took all of two games. Yi's going to be fantastic folks. He's a two way 7 footer that runs the court like none I've ever seen. Hyi's the difference maker. His defense has been superb.

At long last, the Bucks finally seem to be commited to playing defense and making the extra pass. That bright future begins now.

Two way eh? He and Bogut got a lil somethin' goin on down low?

 

[cav jvl]

Wow. That's great. Who cares?

 

[Rimage]

I think you just bore people now TJ.

 

[James]

TJ, how bout them Red Sox that you claimed were going to crumble and not make the playoffs?

Hmmmm...well, if that's the case, then how does he explain this in the RCF fantasy league...

...interesting from a guy who thinks "Yi's going to be fantastic folks". I am calling on TJ's claims about Yi...it's obvious that when pride and reality come into play, even he doesn't believe his own rhetoric.

yi and bogut doesnt have anything on Curry and Randolph!

 

[TJ_4_CV31]

Boozer.

Beckett was unbelievable all year. Hats off.

 

[TheAdmin]

Boozer.

Care to explain this?

Apparently not you since you couldn't stop yourself from posting here. Smart money says this will be the most popular thread on the NBA board AGAIN this season. TJ brings excitement! TJ brings anticipation! TJ is entertainment!

The prediction that TJ made that many of you like to ignore is still on track: 2006-2007 will be the last 50 win campaign for the Cavs as presently configured.

Will they finish with a better record than the Bucks? Well, we'll see.

He's having an unbelievable season so far don't you think? Pip has called him the best power forward in the game.

Curry and Randolph will be a force. However, their backcourt is too wild and unpredictable.
