Reminds me of James Johnson with a work ethic. Athletic, good defender, could be a better shooter.

Mentioned in another thread that he's a very minor player. 9th-12th man type. But I don't mind him because he's a tough hardnosed dude that will give you his best. Its not a huge move, but if you were trying to establish a culture, having several of those guys deep on the bench can help.

all I remember is him not backing down from Lebron in the playoffs when Lebron took exception to a foul and some EC after the whistle.

So, a plus in my book.

Y! Sources: Sacramento close to signing free agent F/C Yi Jianlian to 2 year deal, league sources tell Y! Sports.

That's a funny joke, right? I'm not going to check Woj's twitter myself 'cause I kind of want this to be true and am afraid of being disappointed.

don't feed the troll. He just needs attention at the moment, so he's spamming every thread with his oh so peculiar sense of humor.

Excuse me? I'm not a troll, and I'm not hungry, either.

Perhaps not posting the same fake tweet to (at least) three different threads might lessen the whole troll impression.

Or that he's 10 years old.

Young did play pretty impressive defense on Lebron. That is what you get from him, a hard nosed, tough defender.
His biggest weakness is the ball handling. You better pray, that he never has to dribble the ball. If you hide him at the corner on offense Young might be a solid fit, but he is not a starter.

I like his athleticism. Tough player.

14, actually. Look, I'm sorry about the Yi thing, my intention wasn't to troll the forum.

Its starting to look like the SF position is going to be a committee

Don't mind Young off the bench at all. He's an all out effort/toughness guy that actually tries on the defensive end of the floor. Good guy to stash on your bench

Sam Young as a bench vet at SF is not a bad thing. Better in that role than anyone else we have. Obviously not a starter!
