    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>Former Bucks coach Larry Kryskowiak tells HoopsWorld’s Bill Ingram that he was “amazed” Yi Jianlian had as good a rookie season as he did because the demands upon his time were “insane”. Yi, he said, had the normal commitments to the Bucks as well as commitments to marketing on behalf of China. It’s a hazard, writes Ingram, for any team acquiring a Chinese player…even Yao Ming.</div>

    Gotta sorta feel bad for him.

    Oh, and shame on all of you who go and bitch him out for not scoring 20 ppg in the Olympics.

    I hope he continues to suck it up at the Olympics and the China stops using him for marketing.

    Give him time to get it together without all those rigorous demands.
