LA CROSSE, Wis - Yi Jianlian acknowledged he's already strained from the spotlight after one meaningless game.

"There's a lot of attention on me," he said through translator Roy Lu. "I feel the pressure."

Yi made his inauspicious debut for the Bucks, but fellow rookie Joakim Noah looked much more like the polished pro in Milwaukee's 93-88 victory over the Chicago Bulls in the exhibition opener on Tuesday night.

[Agencies]"As a rookie player in my first season, there aren't just one or two points I need to work are. There are quite a lot," Yi said.

Yi fouled out in 16 minutes, managing only three points with two steals, a blocked shot and a turnover.

"The rules of FIBA and the rules of NBA are different, it takes time for me to deal with this through more training," he said.

Noah, who led Florida to back-to-back titles in college, was just as intense as he had been in his final game with the Gators when he entered late in the first quarter. The ninth pick of the draft opened with a slam and blocked Andrew Bogut's shot on the ensuing possession.

"It felt good being able to play," Noah said. "I got a great pass and that's my job around the rim, try to make everything."
