    I really like Zhou Qi.

    Very good at moving without the ball and seems to know exactly where to go. He still does get pushed around for obvious reasons, but his positioning has been solid and he has managed to look good despite rarely ever getting the ball.

    Honestly, with Zhou Qi's height and length, he doesn't even have to be a truly great player to have a huge impact on the floor. If he's fluid and can keep up with the NBA pace he'll be very valuable. Anything beyond that is just a bonus.

    Also, he's tall and not a clutz. That's half the battle. Most of these bigs can't walk and chew gum, Zhou is pretty fluid.

    Refs calling way to many fouls.

    And pls Get Qi the damn ball.

    This guy is a player.

    Bold prediction

    HE gets min with the big club.

    He would look great playing off harden and cp3

    whoops....Troy Williams just took a long two, fade-away. So much for his Rockets career, now.

    Zhou qi looks good on defense. I think his mobility and length will make him an asset on that side of the ball.

    On offense, his mentally needs to change . He's playing like those super tall guys that stands around the 3pt line when you play pick up games.

    He does crash the board, but always seems to be a couple of counts late when he makes his run to the basket.

    Hopefully it's just the fact that summer league games are usually dominated by players that handle the ball that make Zhou seem so passive.

    I kinda see it a bit different, he looks passive and isnt asking for the ball enough. He needs to ask for the ball!
