Super Lord of the Rings

Chapter 427 [Self-recommended blue-collar]

Wang Jun thinks that raising a pet is troublesome. He has to bathe it and coax it to play.

Garfield pesters Wang Jun even more, wherever he is, and he especially likes to lie on Wang Jun or hang on his arm when he is watching TV. And it only wants to hang Wang Jun's arm, maybe because Theron's arm is too thin and has no muscles, so it can't hang it.

As soon as he went out, Garfield barked "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".

One day, Wang Jun was about to go out, when he heard Garfield barking again, he wondered, "Shouldn't a cat meow like that? Isn't it stupid to be with a dog?"

Theron picked up Garfield, rubbed its head, and said with a smile, "Maybe it will be fine when it grows up."

"I hope so." Wang Jun smiled. Anyway, he didn't plan to take Garfield out for a walk in the future, call it whatever you want.

After going to the training hall to practice for a while, Wang Jun heard the guard talking loudly, as if chasing someone away.

He guessed that there might be a reporter who wanted to interview, so he went out with a basketball to take a look, and saw a black and strong man begging for a guard. This man was about the same height as him, with thick legs, which seemed uncoordinated, and looked familiar. .

"What's wrong, Mike."

"Wang, he said he wanted to talk to the manager about something, but he didn't have an appointment, so I can't let him in." Mike the doorman replied.

"Oh." Wang Jun immediately lost interest and wanted to go back and continue practicing.

"Wang Jun, do you remember me? We played in college, and I'm Chuck Hayes from Kentucky." Hayes stopped him excitedly, like an ant in the water grabbing a life-saving straw.

"It's you, hello." No wonder Wang Jun remembered the face so familiar.

Against Kentucky that year, he relied on props to replenish his strength and won in overtime. Hayes played center and was able to resist Kaman, which impressed him very much.

"King. I want you to do me a favor, can I take up a little of your time?" Hayes begged.

The two just played a game in college, so they are not friends. For Hayes to speak in such a low voice, it is obvious that the disease has gone to the doctor indiscriminately. There is no way out.

"Mike, I know him, let him in."

"Okay." The guard didn't care. It is common for friends to watch player training. He stopped because Hayes said he was looking for a manager,

That's not something you can see at will.

Entering the training ground, Wang Jun asked, "What's the matter?"

"The news said that the Bulls just waived Tim Thomas, and there is a vacant position inside. I want to ask for a trial training opportunity to see if I have a chance to get a short-term contract." Hayes rubbed his nose. I'm a little embarrassed.

"Shouldn't the agent be in charge of this matter?"

Hayes was even more embarrassed, and smiled wryly, "I don't have an agent."

"..."

Wang Jun knew about Thomas being laid off. The management wants to replace Thomas to free up salary space. Even if the trade is a special case, no one wants a second-round pick.

This guy was passive and sabotaged during training, and even lost his temper when he was not allowed to start.

The management couldn't take it anymore, so they sent him home, agreed to buy out, and made him a free agent who could join other teams.

That's what Thomas and his agents hope for. After getting part of the buyout fee and entering the contract year, as long as he joins a team that is good at collecting statistics, he is not too old. Before retiring, I can strive for another big contract.

Thomas didn't care about the honor at all, only the money.

Hayes doesn't care about money, he just wants to play in the NBA. As long as he becomes an NBA player, even if he only plays for a few seasons, he is satisfied. With this qualification, it is not difficult to find a job. The current situation is that scouts take a look at his physical condition. Don't give him a chance at all.

What Hayes asked for was just a trial training opportunity, and the mix was really miserable.

in high school. Many universities are willing to give Hayes scholarships, and finally he chose Kentucky, a prestigious school. At that time he was an excellent immediate combat force.

It's a pity that he didn't grow one centimeter taller after that, and he didn't get good statistics as a blue-collar in four years of college.

Before the 2005 draft, Hayes also won the mvp in the Portsmouth training camp. However, he was not selected for his height, and his 22-year-old "old age" has become an obstacle to his draft.

There are only two types of people who are popular in the draft. One is immediate combat power. Although he has no potential, he can immediately play and play a role. The second is young people with training value, which mainly depends on their physical condition.

No one believes that an insider who can't make a CIC can gain a foothold in the NBA.

However, Wang Jun believes more in what he sees than in data analysis. Just like the Bulls, this group of young people are not very well-known, but they fight very well. He is willing to join the Bulls, and he came after meeting in the playoffs and experiencing his strength.

"Chuck, play with me for a while. As long as I think you are strong enough, I will recommend you to the manager. It is not easy to stay. Even if Thomas is cut, our team still has five insiders who can play."

"I know, but compared to defense, in addition to Chandler, I have confidence better than anyone else." Hayes laughed.

"bring it on."

The two started fighting immediately.

What Hayes can show is defense. He can't score under Wang Jun's defense at all. His skills are too rough and his shots are inaccurate.

It's a pity that against Wang Jun, his defense is not good. His base is very stable, and his hands are quick. He has a very good defensive effect against those who hit with their backs and force their way to the inside. But if the opponent's big man can hit the mid-range shot and hits the frame face-up, Hayes can't do it, he is too short.

Hayes will have more difficulty if he encounters a skilled outside line. After all, he has an inside weight of 108 kilograms and suffers from a disadvantage in moving speed.

Hayes was beaten to the ground, Wang Jun turned around, stepped back, jumped, and broke through tricks, but he couldn't hit with his back, but he didn't rely on his back for a long time.

Wang Jun found that Hayes' defensive style is very similar to Ben Wallace, but his jumping ability is not good, his wingspan is average, he can't help defend and block shots like Ben, and he is not as fast as Ben Wallace.

Back then, no one wanted Daben to participate in the draft, and no one wanted him to play in Italy.

Now Big Ben has won three best defensive player awards, three All-Star selections, multiple best defensive teams, season rebounds and blocks, and so on.

The same person also has the Heat's Haslem, who has now received a mid-level contract extension. He is an important defensive player for the Heat, and he relies on him to defend against pick-and-rolls.

Wang Jun's former teammate Jason Collins is also this kind of defensive blue-collar, and he played as a starter for the Nets for many seasons.

Hayes was about to have a shadow in his heart after being cleaned up, and Wang Juncai stopped.

"I just practiced like this in the team. You defend very well. It is true that except for Chandler, no one else defends better than you."

"So...you agreed?"

Hayes breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt a little sympathetic to the inside line of the Bulls. It must be very uncomfortable to practice against Wang Jun like this.

"Well, you and I can go to see the manager. You can definitely have a trial training. Whether you can seize the opportunity to stay depends on your performance."

"Thank you very much." Hayes felt lucky, even if he was just a marginal player, the Bulls are a strong team in the playoffs.

And he feels that his style is suitable for the Bulls. The team doesn't need him to do anything on the offensive end. As long as the Bulls give him a basic salary, he will be satisfied.
