Yi

Random Thoughts:

  • Jeff Green, Yi Jianlian, Brandon Wright, Al Horford...you have to think Billy King is going after one of these 4 guys and knows he'll take the last one of them and feel good. You would also have to figure none of them will be there at 12. You would also have to figure that with two mega-stars and a superstar (Kobe, Garnett, O'Neal) on the trading block there are opportunities to be a broker and turn a few picks into a higher one (Chicago, Minnesota, and Atlanta seem to be the most active in wanting to change their teams. The Lakers just seem like a mess right now; seems they haven't recovered from the day Shaq left.)
  • They went and saw Yi yesterday with a lot of people - either a smokescreen or the picture is coming together. They'll see Al Thorton next week. There are no other players between 3 and 12 who fit the bill for what the Sixers need - Beef.
  • I still think that if there was any way to get Mike Conley Jr. I'd try to do it

so in your analysis... the sixers need beef--or someone from ohio state.

What does Ohio State have to do with it? Conley is unstoppable. I'd take Brewer too.
