Sun Yue to join Lakers for ‘09-’10 season
I know a lot of people are eager to see the impressive point guard. Mitch recently spoke and believes he will be a Laker for the 2009-2010 season. Also, he will compete in the Olympics this year for his national team!
Press Enterprise: The Lakers used one of their second-round picks last year to draft China’s Sun Yue, a 6-8 point guard. Kupchak said the Lakers saw Sun play this season and are optimistic he’ll be on their 2009-10 roster. Sun is playing for China’s national team.
“He is a player that we are intrigued in,” Kupchak said. “We think he has the talent to play at the NBA level.”

cool.. welcome to LA
great news.
hey what do yall think of a radmanovic luke walton and coby carl and maybe a our first round pick of next year because next years draft aint gonna be that good for josh howard
This is pretty good news. I’ll be VERY interested in watching him play for his team in the Olympics.
I’d love for him to be a huge part of their success (until/if they run into team USA).
Our future is looking very good.
is there a chance he would play this season?

Doubt it. I was always saying next season (refering to the 09-10 season). It gets to the point where Fisher will need to play reduced minutes (he’ll be what, 35… 36?) and it’ll be the time Farmar develops into our starting PG with Yue/Fish backing him up,
THANK YOU, BABY JESUS!!!

Lakers can’t trade next years pick becuase they already traded this years and 2010 pick to memphis for gasol
i want coby to stay,i think he has the outside shot but like ariza i hope phil will give them room to prove it throw garbages luke,rad,mihm.i want a change in the 3 spot but let us give odom another chance.frontcourt will be.
BYNUM-7′0″ tower A
GASOL-7′0″ tower B
ODOM -6′10″empire state
KOBE -6′6″ universe
YUE,6′8″ beijing china(sorry fish,just for fun)
benched
MBENGA-7′0″ tacos
TURIAF-6′10″predator
ARIZA-6′8″ defense minister
SASHA-6′7″ machine
COBY-6′5″ white chocolate(sorry to fish again,just for fun)
HELL YEAH!!!
just get rid of newble and coby
I thought this is old news. If this move goes through, I’m guessing the Lakers are trying to minimize Fisher’s minutes (and save him for crunch time).
Dragon in L.A.
It makes a lot more sense than bringing him for 08-09. In 09-10 Fish will be 36 starting the season and I believe that is the last year on his current contract. Sun can sit on the bench a full year and just learn the triangle. I think the Lakers are thinking Fish will not be back the following year and Farmar will be the starter with Sun backing him up.
great news.

yea but we traded the second round pick not the first pick.
I will def. check him out when China plays in the Olympics. Youtube only does highlights. LA has become Global. We got players from almost every continents, is Luc Longley avail ?
A 6-8 point guard?
