Chapter 324 [Little Overlord Anti-Bone Boy]

Yang Rui's joining the Wizards must be announced later, in order to facilitate the transaction.

Jordan found that Yang Rui's eyes were vicious, and the management of other teams also discovered that if Yang Rui joined and traded Gerald Wallace, the king would definitely treat this person as a treasure.

The management of the Kings regretted it before. If Jerome James stayed on the team, they had two big meat shield centers in the Western Conference finals, and they might be able to limit O'Neal.

The Wizards took a relatively advanced second-round pick and immediately impressed the Kings management.Although Gerrard's physique is super strong, his offensive skills as a small forward are too rough, and his shooting and passing abilities cannot meet Adelman's requirements.

The Kings have Webber, the bench has a higher head Turkoglu, Adelman has never let Gerrard play a power forward, his talent has been buried.

In addition, the Wizards have to trade Kwame Brown in the summer for a rusher who is good at offense with the ball at Rui Yang's request.If there are no people who are good at holding the ball and attacking, the Wizards have absolutely no future in the new season.

Jordan was no longer fit to be a ball-handling player, his physical fitness was severely deteriorating, and his shooting percentage was low.The Wizards management knows this, so Yang Rui was traded to Stackhouse in his previous life.This gentleman almost averaged 30+ per game in a single season for the Pistons, which is very deceptive.

With Yang Rui, the Wizards certainly wouldn't make such a mistake, and would instead use a data brush that likes to fight.If the team wants to become stronger in the short term, it is necessary to select players with strong tactical execution.

Yang Rui stayed in Toronto for a few days and participated in the grand championship parade.

There are many fans holding signs to keep Yang Rui, hoping that he will stay in the Raptors, but this is impossible. When giving a speech, Yang Rui said goodbye to all the Raptors fans present.

Yang Rui's apartment is still three months away, so he gave the keys to the Dubov family along with the TV, refrigerator, washing machine and other appliances.Thomas Bentley's SUV was also left behind. As soon as Yang Rui left, he would not be living in Toronto again.

After getting a bunch of gifts, Nina still cried miserably. Yang Rui was her big backer in Toronto, and she often invited her to dinner. She only showed her classmates a photo with the star, and she was a figure in school, and everyone envied her. .

Yang Rui comforted and said, "You go to school first. If you really want to enter the entertainment industry in the future, practice your acting skills and call me. I will invest in a movie and I will give you a suitable role."

"That's a deal."

Nina envied that Stana became a star, and she wanted to play the "Red Queen" in "Resident Evil".But she grew too fast, she was over 12 meters at the age of 1.5, obviously she couldn't play a child, so she had to give up.

Leaving Toronto on the 20th, Yang Rui and Stana went to Long Island, New York for a vacation.

The beaches of Long Island are beautiful, deep and clean. There are not only fishing plank roads along the coast, but also fishing boats that go out to sea.There is a fishing gear shop on the pier, and all the equipment can be purchased at this stop.

Yang Rui likes to fish for crabs here. It is better than fish. It can be filled with loot in half a day, and then accompanied by barbecue, and have a picnic in the barbecue area on the beach.

There are countless delicacies on Long Island. Not only can you taste the freshest local seafood, but you can also enjoy the best quality cuisine from all over the world, such as American, French, Japanese, and Thai, which makes people feast.

As soon as Yang Rui arrived in New York, there was a lot of media speculation that he would return to the Knicks, Don Cheney had been fired, and the head coach position was vacant.

According to Chinese media analysis, Yao Ming is likely to be the No. [-] pick to be selected by the Knicks, and Yang Rui's return to coach will be a very attractive combination for Chinese fans.

The reporters took the trouble to interview Yang Rui, trying to get the exact answer.

He now really feels that he is a big star, just like when James became a free man in 2010, he attracts attention. Holding a press conference to make sure that the reporters are full, participating in TV interviews to announce the decision, will also get high ratings. It's just that no one burns his jersey.

Yang Rui didn't want the Chinese fans to be more hopeful and disappointed, so he accepted an interview with a CCTV5 reporter and made it clear that the next stop was not the Knicks, but he didn't say where he would go.

On June 6, Jordan arrived in New York to participate in the draft with manager Unseld.

Yang Rui has emailed Jordan the player information to be selected.

The first choice is the insider Amare Stoudemire. The Wizards' eighth pick is not high, but it is enough to intercept the No.9 Suns.

Stoudamire is 208cm tall and weighs 111kg. His physical fitness is super strong. His speed, strength, and jumping are all at the top in the inside line. In Yang Rui's previous life, he beat Yao Ming to win the best rookie.After the pick-and-roll, he is good at catching the ball and dunking in the air. There are countless people in the league who have been dunked by him, so he is nicknamed "Little Bully".

When he first entered the league, Stoudamire mainly relied on his body to hit the basket, and only occasionally showed off his mid-range shots when he was open.After undergoing minimally invasive surgery, he actually practiced a precise mid-range shot, which was surprising.

Despite his early decline due to injuries, Stoudamire was once a top-five power forward in the league and was selected to the All-NBA team.The funny thing is that the draft forecast that his template is actually Ben Wallace, and I don't know where he resembles Big Ben.

The first-round pick is Caron Butler, an excellent small forward, that is, the combat power, and the physical quality is also excellent.However, he is currently all-around and incompetent, his shooting is not good enough, and his offensive ability with the ball is also average.

The Wizards traded starting power forward Jahidi White with the Grizzlies for the 3rd overall pick in the second round.Since Yang Rui said there was no need to change the first round, the management complied with his request.

Yang Rui felt that there were not many strong players in the first round. The valuable Taishaun Prince could only play as a small forward in his rookie season, and his scoring ability was not strong.

The 3rd pick in the second round is enough to select "Anti-Bone Boy" Carlos Boozer.In Yang Rui's previous life, he was a power forward with outstanding skills. He was 206cm tall and weighed 120kg. He was a rocket nemesis.

In his previous life, Boozer was selected for the All-Star Game and averaged 20.9 points, 11.7 rebounds and 3 assists per game at his peak, but Yang Rui didn’t think it was necessary to select him in the first round, nor would he give him too much playing time because his weaknesses were too obvious.

Boozer's defensive awareness is very poor, and he is often shaken, unable to guard most of the forwards.He has limited height and wingspan and is not good at blocking shots.When faced with pick-and-rolls, he was basically unable to prevent the guard's breakthrough and could only foul.

Although Stoudamire is often said to have poor defense, he can actually reach the average level of the league. Boozer is definitely below the level, and he is not willing to defend at all.

In terms of advantages, it is that Boozer has a tonnage in the interior, is very strong, and has a good back defense. He will not let people easily break into the penalty area with strength.Therefore, Yang Rui prefers to let Boozer be the center backup. When playing small-ball tactics, he can spread his strengths on the offensive end, and he will not be bullied by force against the center.

As long as these two people are selected, Gerald Wallace is traded, and the Wizards have blue-collar Haywood under contract and veteran center Kristen Laettner, the Wizards are not too weak inside.

As the only college student in the 92 Dream Team, Laettner has good strength. He has been selected for the All-Star Game, has a stable mid-range shot, peaked at 18.1 points, 8.8 rebounds and 2.7 assists, and can still play a role now.

Yang Rui did not participate in the draft, so he was waiting for good news from Jordan at home.
