God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 306 Dilemma

After 24 minutes of group confrontation, the blue team won without any surprises. Brown's eyes on Wallace softened. This guy's style of play and technical characteristics really fit his team building ideas.As for Arenas, who shot like crazy throughout the game, Brown feels very conflicted. On the one hand, the team needs such sharp-edged players who can create opportunities on their own. the lone wolf.

After thanking everyone for coming to Philadelphia for the workout, Brown announced that all the young people who participated in the workout can leave on their own, but his work is not over.After Arenas and the others packed up their things and left, Brown gathered the players and coaches who had watched the whole trial training process just now, hoping to hear everyone's opinions.

McGee took the lead and said: "I think Arenas is good. We need such an excellent scorer. After Michael was put on the starting lineup, the team's bench lineup lacked the most powerful scorer. Arenas is obviously qualified for this role. ...I think the most critical question is, can Arenas be selected by us at the end of the first round?"

Brown frowned and said, "Whether you can choose is not something you should be concerned about. You just need to express your own opinions. The specific operation is still up to the management. I can only make some suggestions..."

McGee shrugged and said: "Okay coach, then my opinion is to choose Arenas, I think he can help our bench lineup. Wallace is also good, but his ability to score independently is still worse .”

Richardson coughed lightly, wiped his glasses, and said sternly: "These two swingmen have excellent physical fitness. From this point of view, there is no big difference between the two, except that Wallace He has an advantage in terms of height and weight. I want to talk about a few inside players who participated in the trial training. Although Haywood's innate conditions are very good, his skills are relatively rough, so my suggestion is to choose Daimler Porter, the Haitian center's projected pick is also late in the first round."

Brown shook his head and said: "Dalembert is really good. He has shown good strength on both ends of the offense and defense, but I can tell you that we are attacking a top center player in the league, so in the draft Picking a rookie insider is just a plan B. If you can, let's talk more about the swingman selection and see who is more suitable for us."

With Brown's words, everyone began to speak freely and judge the advantages and disadvantages of Wallace and Arenas. Unexpectedly, among the members of the coaching staff, Wallace was more supportive, while the players hoped more. The team chose Arenas.In fact, this is not surprising. Regardless of their own style of play, everyone looks forward to individual heroism. Arenas is obviously in line with their aesthetics. Their highest dream is to single-handedly enter the dragon's lake and tiger's den, and win the first rank of the general. .

This is also what troubles Brown. Wallace and Arenas each have their own advantages and disadvantages. It seems a bit unsatisfactory to choose any one.He suddenly thought of a more critical question. The predicted picks on the draft website are relatively accurate. Now Arenas is predicted to be selected in the top [-] picks, while Wallace is at the end of the first round. Relatively speaking, the team is more hopeful of getting Wallace. If this is the case, what's the point of struggling now?

Thinking of this, he looked at Chang Wei, who was silent beside him, and asked with a little dissatisfaction: "Chang, what's your opinion? It seems that you haven't expressed your opinion just now. When you were discussing draft goals, you Isn't it the most positive?"

Chang Wei smiled apologetically, stood up and said, "Although Arenas' performance was beyond my expectation, I still insist on choosing him. Wallace is also very good, but his scoring ability is not as good as Arenas', and he can create scores independently." Opportunity is also relatively insufficient, if only one is selected in the first round, my suggestion is Arenas!"

"But often, you have to consider a problem. Now Arenas' predicted draft pick is much higher than Wallace's. We only have a first-round pick at No. Do you want to trade up again?"

"This is not a problem, coach. The predicted pick on the draft website is just to provide us with a basis for reference, and it does not mean that the final player will be selected in this pick. Not surprising. If I'm not mistaken, Arenas will fall to the end of the first round nine times out of ten, so we can draft him!"

Halter, who was often in the same hotel room as Chang Wei, asked suspiciously: "Chang, how can you be sure that none of the previous teams would choose Arenas? His statistics in college are still very good. The coaches are not fools, I don't believe that everyone will give up such an excellent scorer, it is still very difficult for Arenas to fall to the end of the first round, right?"

Chang Wei smiled helplessly and said, "I have my own sources, and it's no loss for us, isn't it? If Arenas falls to the end of the first round, we can try our best to draft him. If we are selected, then we can take advantage of the trend and choose Wallace, no matter what the situation is, it will not be a disadvantage to us, isn't it?"

Brown asked: "So you're saying we're still going to take Arenas? If we can take..."

Chang Wei nodded and said, "That's right, I know that Arenas can become the top scorer in the league, and we won't suffer a loss if we choose him. As for his character, I think we can improve him, and the player has a bit of a temper." Isn’t it normal? If they have a lot of immediate combat power, then it’s okay to be a little less tempered.”

Brown shook his head and said, "I really don't know where you have so much confidence in this guy. If it wasn't because I know you are Chinese, I would think you have some kind of relationship with him. I'll go back and think about it for a while, if If you really insist on taking Arenas, I will take your advice, because you have proved your ability in last year's draft."

Chang Wei nodded with a smile and said nothing. This was the result he wanted to see.He has proved his vision of seeing people, so when he suggested choosing Arenas, Brown's first choice was to follow his advice. If Reid didn't make the bottom line, maybe Brown would take Chang Wei's words as Nonsense, right?
