Super Lord of the Rings

Chapter 121 [Overbearing president does not choose king]

Wang Jun returned to Ann Arbor after completing the trial training with the fourth team to continue training.

Unfortunately, the uniforms of these four teams all decided to choose other players and give up Wang Jun.

He has average athletic ability and a height of 195cm. If he does not arrange tactics, it is difficult to get a chance to make a move. As for the back-up ability, no one is interested. You can't let the cores wait for an opportunity on the periphery and give him room, right?

Wang Jun's physical strength is very good, which was ignored during the physical test.

When the Pistons management was negotiating, scout Steve Joel tried to persuade Dumars.

"Joe, Wang Jun has made great progress, and he reached this level in just one year. There are news that he was a fat man a year ago, why not give him a chance? It's just the 25th pick in the first round!"

Joe Dumars shook his head and smiled disdainfully: "I'm curious why you are optimistic about him? There are so many international players in the swing position this year. They can help the team when they come. What we need is immediate combat power. The Chinese came What can he do? Grow him? Make him guard the post? Play with Ben (Wallace) inside?"

Joel had no choice but to ask about the second pick. "Why didn't you pick Anthony at the No. 2 pick?"

"I think Milicic has more potential."

Joel felt that the president had lost his mind. "Can't you see that Anthony's skills are comprehensive? He is the immediate combat power! Milicic came to play the starter, who can determine whether he can adapt to the rhythm of the game?"

Dumars has already completely bowed down under Milicic's sports shorts, looking good at everything. "Although he is not as comprehensive as Anthony, he has potential. Are we going to give up a big man who is worse than Nowitzki?"

During the trial training, Milicic did perform unbelievably. His shooting touch is soft, his footwork around the basket is nimble, and his speed is rare among big players. Just dunk.

Veteran scout Will Robinson backs the president. "Joel, you are still too young. You need to consider many aspects when selecting players. I think Milicic may become a dominant player like Chamberlain."

"..."

Joel roared in his heart: Didn't Nima still want to introduce immediate combat power just now? You are all just looking at the body!

Robinson has worked as a scout for the Pistons for 20 years. He is Joel's master. He has very old qualifications, and he can't refute.

The Pistons are not interested in Anthony. On the one hand, Prince has great potential at the third position, and only needs a big man who is both internal and external. Billups has the ball to attack, and Hamilton has the running position. They chose Anthony, and they will not give him the ball.

Anthony is currently waiting for the draft at home, he will soon be dumbfounded, and he doesn't want to go to the Nuggets at all.

At the beginning of June, except for the Spurs and Nets who reached the finals, the other teams basically determined their first choice and spare tire.

This season, the Nets are not as vulnerable as last year. They played six games against the Spurs and lost.

Tim Duncan, who is called "Stone Buddha" and "Dumb" by Chinese fans, averaged 23.3 points, 12.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.9 blocks per game in the regular season and won the MVP.

In the playoffs, he became more vigorous, and his statistics improved in an all-round way, averaging 24.7 points, 15.4 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 3.3 blocks per game.

In the finals, Duncan was simply cheating. Against Beast power forward Kenyon Martin, he averaged 24.3 points, 17 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 5.3 blocks per game.

His block data is unprecedented, he almost won a quadruple-double in the sixth game, led the team to win the championship again, won the finals MVP himself, and completed the personal honor grand slam.

Since the statistics of blocked shots, only Duncan has won the monster data of 20+15+5+5 in the finals in history. The NBA seems to be ruled by another person.

At the end of the NBA season, the rookies, except for the international players who did not come to the United States, basically went to each team for physical examination.

The Platinum generation has a bunch of monsters emerging.

With terrifying speed, TJ Ford's agility is outstanding, even if there is a risk of injury, he will definitely be selected with a high pick.

With a terrifying wingspan, center Perkins is 208cm tall, weighs 127kg, and has a wingspan of 227cm.

There are terrifying three-pointers, and Kapono's training hit rate can be compared with that of famous pitchers.

With a terrifying neck, Bosh's shoulder height is about the same as Brian Cook's, plus the neck is half a head higher than the other...

The most surprising thing is LeBron James, who has super comprehensive qualities. Apart from being only 203cm tall, he seems to be able to play five positions, even if his passing awareness is not inferior to a guard.

There are also many rookies who have been questioned.

One of the more interesting data in the physical test is the fat content, which mainly evaluates a player's reference in maintaining body shape.

Among them, Anthony and Kaman both had excessive fat mass. In the physical test results, the fat content of these two players is more than 10%. According to the general perception of NBA scouts and coaches, a player should not have more than 8% fat content, at least at the beginning of the season.

Worse than these two top draft picks is Wang Jun, whose physical test results show that his fat content is as high as 13.7%.

The only consolation is that his wingspan of 208cm is longer than a year ago. You know, Michael Jordan's wingspan was only 212cm back then. Kobe, who is 198cm tall, has a wingspan of only 206cm.

The scouts' impression of Wang Jun is basically the height of the guard, the weight of the forward, and excessive fat content.

Therefore, in the second round of draft predictions, he is still not favored.

ESPN experts believe that he may be selected in the middle of the second round, which still takes into account the nationality factor.

Columnist Tom Haberstroh said: "Wang Jun is likely to be the fourth Chinese player to log into the NBA. As the only outside line in China, he has certain commercial value. He has shown his shooting in the NCAA and can play in the system. Make a difference. He's young and worth the gamble."

Some people even thought that Wang Jun was at the end of the second round at most, and the reason was his physical fitness, and gave examples.

Ginobili was selected 57th in the year. Another Argentine insider, Luis Scola, who has proved himself abroad, was only selected 56th last season.

Basketball legend Hornacek also accepted media interviews.

When the reporter said that Wang Jun was his apprentice, Hornacek smiled brightly. "Actually, I can't call it a master or an apprentice. I just taught him some shooting details. He played very well this season, which is entirely due to his personal efforts."

The reporter asked: "Jeff, do you think Wang Jun can play well in the NBA?"

"I think he will be better than me in the future. He is only 20 years old. Anyone who knows him knows how amazing his progress is."

The reporter asked: "What do you think he will probably be selected?"

Hornacek stared at the camera and said very seriously: "If I were the manager, I would definitely pick him in the first round. He will surprise people."

Hornacek spared no effort to praise Wang Jun once, helping him to add points in the draft.

Of course, the Chinese media are unanimously optimistic about Wang Jun, and they also gave two templates. The best template is Ray Allen, and the worst is Hornacek.

Of course, this kind of template doesn't make much sense.

Last year's best rookie Stoudemire, the best template given by the media was Ben Wallace, and the worst template was Jason Collins.

No matter whether he is optimistic or not, Wang Jun decided to stay the same to cope with all changes, exercise and try to become better before the start of the game.

No matter what other people say, it will not change his performance on the court.
