<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>In addition to re-signing Sasha Vujacic and Ronny Turiaf, watching newly drafted rookie Joe Crawford participate in Las Vegas, and keeping an eye on trades and free agents, the Lakers are hoping to sign Sun Yue. The 6-foot-9 point guard was the Lakers' second-round draft pick last year, but he stayed overseas, where will play on the Chinese national team this summer. "He's a player that we are intrigued in," Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said at the draft. "We think he has the talent to play at the NBA level."</div> Orange County Register
Despite the fact that most chinese players aren't ready to play at the NBA level, I really want Sun Yue to come down here. I never get to watch chinese players play besides myself and friends of mine locally, but regardless of how he does I'd be proud to have a fellow chinese player actually play in the NBA.
If he quickly learns how to use his height to his advantage it would make us a scary scary team... We would have matchup problems at EVERY position Yue (oversized PG), Kobe (to good to guard), Odom (oversized SF who can rebound), Pau (Big man who has a shooting touch), Bynum (too big and too strong) haha!
