I can't be a basketball god

Chapter 10 The Rich Mavericks

Texas.

city ​​of dallas.

Mavericks Reserve Training Facility.

The uniform team of the Mavericks is very straightforward, directly announcing the content of the first test item of this trial training, "In the Dallas Mavericks, the only belief is offense, offense, offense.

You don't have to defend, or you don't have a body, but no shooting is absolutely not allowed here.

So, next, the content of the first test is all-round shooting. "

The rules are as follows.

Two-pointers are shot clockwise around the paint area.

It's still a two-pointer, one step and a half away from the three-point line, and shoot a circle clockwise.

Three-pointers, around the three-point line, shoot a circle clockwise.

Play a circle as a group, and each player throws two groups respectively.

After knowing the content of the trial training, at this moment, Ye Feng, Leonor Barbosa, Boris Dior, and Zoran Praninic nodded.

In addition, Kevin Korver and Josh Howard looked at each other with seriousness in their eyes.

In the eyes of both parties, they both understood the meaning of the other party.

Can't lose to these outsiders!

The Dallas Mavericks are really an international team!

In addition to Nash, Nowitzki and the two star core players, there are also a group of international players such as Hernardo Najura, Tariq Wajal and Antoine Gaudio, accounting for one-fifth of the team's lineup. one.

And, still not satisfied.

In the future, it will continue continuously, expanding the territory of its own international coalition forces.

That's not counting Wang Zhizhi who just left, and Xue Yuyang who hasn't come to vote yet.

"Be the first to appear on the field, shoot according to height from low to high, and prepare for 1 minute."

Quiet.

2 seconds.

No one came out.

Barbossa, who was belatedly aware of it, stood up silently, right and left Kangkang.

With a height of 191cm, isn't he the shortest among this group of rookies?
After all, the Dallas Mavericks, the position of the trial training, are shooting guards.

Barbosa can come because he is a dual-control.

Receives a pass from an assistant coach.

Boom-!
Barbosa smashed the iron on the first shot.

Next, the six-four shooting rate came out. The farther the shooting distance was, the lower the shooting rate would be on the inside line.

The shooting of three-pointers is estimated to be [-]-[-].

"With his speed, the position of the dual-energy control, it's a pity..."

Old Nelson shook his head and crossed out Barbossa's name.

As an offensively paranoid man who can throw all five super scorers into the field, and is nicknamed "Mad Scientist", the legendary bishop can't guarantee himself with open shots without defense Shooting percentage.

Offensively, it was predictable.

The Mavericks play a whirlwind game. They have speed, but without shooting, they don't even think about having any chance to play.

Even if Barbosa can serve as a substitute for Nash, it won't work.

Then, it was Ye Feng's turn to play.

His height is 198CM.

Korver, Josh Howard, Zoran Planinic, all three are 201CM.

In addition, there is another Dior who can't find a place.

His height is 203cm, he can try to play forward, and it should be no problem to play guard.

Call inside, this is not yet available.

It's just because he hasn't met that Fatty De who can unlock various positions by pulling out his sword.

Swish-!
Ye Feng shot very smoothly, wearing external equipment, it's just that he doesn't talk about football ethics.

The first time you make a shot, you just know if there is one, and hit it at the beginning.

Next, the shot is smooth.

Two close range, full hit, no problem.

Two points in the middle distance, and the distance hit is only 1 short.

A three-pointer, and I still want to hit it all, but I missed it by one goal.

The hit rate is as high as 95% or more...

Hiss~~! !
Looking at it, Ye Feng hit the basketball, still gritted his teeth, with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

The other players gasped, and Barbosa shook his head.

Next, Korver's appearance was obviously disturbed, and his mentality collapsed at the beginning. He was just a late bloomer.

Boom-!
Boom-!
The shooting performance is very average.

Followed by Zoran Pninic, his shooting percentage is also mediocre.

The basic skills are there, and there is nothing wrong with the shooting rhythm.

However, I am afraid that people will die compared to others, and they will be thrown away if they compare goods.

However, the appearance of Josh Howard blinded everyone's eyes.

After the entire shot, he only missed a three-pointer.

he or something.

It doesn't look like Yazi who can shoot. How can shooting be like drinking water?

Originally thought that Josh would be the worst one in the shooting session, but unexpectedly, he became the best one.

In other words, the Mavericks' uniform team is interested in Josh Howard, because of his physical talent, especially in defense, he has the potential to become a top defensive player.

Unexpectedly, his state exploded.

In the end, Diaw came out and shot.

Boom-!
Hit the iron again and again.

Old Nelson frowned, "The scouts said that the strongest part of this player is not his shooting, but his all-round skills.

Can pass, organize, dribble, and grab rebounds, none of which he can't do.

As long as he can improve his defense, there will be unexpected surprises! ! "

"This type of 10-athlon player is not very obvious in the competition of individual events!
If the shooting is more accurate, you can choose to train and try.”

The first part of the trial training ended, and Barbosa and Zoran Pnicnic were directly eliminated.

The other four, Korver, Josh Howard, Ye Feng and Dior, stayed.

Although, as a shooter, Korver's shooting performance is not very reliable.

but…

Old Nelson, as the head coach and general manager, still has vision, and he can be considered as a second-round pick.

That's right, the Mavericks have retained two draft picks this year, one is the No. 20 ninth pick, and the other is the second round 27th pick.If Korver is not picked up ahead, it can be used for selection.

If it is not picked by other teams, it's okay.

There is another alternative, isn’t there Xue Yuyang from China?
If his trial is good, he can also be selected and used as a substitute for Nowitzki.

After all, in his heart, a former Chinese player made him somewhat regretful.

If that player had been able to come two years earlier, he might have been able to play.

Of course, if you want to blame, you can only blame Nowitzki for being too strong and not having the slightest chance.

……

The content of the second trial training is very straightforward, that is, one-on-one, catching and fighting.

The result of the lottery...

Ye Feng ran into Korver.

Josh Howard vs Diaw.

The two players who win the duel are the first choice and the second choice.

In the draft, anything can happen, so you have to keep a few options.

After all, the Mavericks' first-round pick is the 29th pick.

That means picking up what others pick up.

What I fancy, is of no use.

"The content of the second trial training is to watch your heads-up duel, one minute to prepare."

Ye Feng and Korver played first.

On the court, Ye Feng handed the basketball to Korver and let him attack first.

"I didn't expect that we would meet so soon. Then, next, I wish you good luck."

"Everyone depends on their strength, come on!" Korver nodded.

After receiving the basketball, he wanted to attack, but he was a little dazed.

How should I attack?
Ye Feng took a stride, directly bullied him, and gave Korver a close fit.

Power confrontation, attack with the ball! !

None of them are my strengths. The opponent is fast, so it's not easy to fight!
At this moment, Korver's face was a little dignified, he explored his steps, swayed the ball, and changed directions in various ways.

Under Ye Feng's use of speed and various pre-judgment interference.

Korver, a pure shooter, gritted his teeth, retreated after dribbling, fought and retreated, rushed to the right, feinted a shot, and directly pulled out a jumper...

Snapped! !

A big yellow hand slapped the basketball down with precision.

Ye Feng successfully won the ball.

I go.

The wingspan and bounce are also great!

It is also difficult to use the advantage of height to forcibly do so!

I'm too hard!

I'm just a shooter!

What do you want to dribble?

I want to eat cake!
Now use my weakness to attack the opponent's strength?

So unfair.

Off the ball offense, the offensive method of receiving and shooting, is it not worthy of living in the NBA?

Changing Ye Feng's attack, he changed direction in front of him, stepped down to dribble, accelerated, his shoulder smashed through the defense, and his eyes were flat.

Get to the free throw line, twist your waist, jump up, hang in the air, and make a jump shot like a stream of water...

Swish-!
Attack completed.

Korver can only sigh.

Next, Korver, who was full of confidence, was suppressed everywhere on offense, and his defense was weak and lacking skills.

The scene was almost one-sided.

"Kevon Korver, the rookie, seems to be playing off the ball, not off the ball.

He's not good at physical confrontation, and he doesn't seem to have much potential defensively.

what!
Ye Feng's three-pointers came unexpectedly.

It's not like the scouts said, the shooting is unstable, and the offensive level is average!

Could it be that he has entered a state of convulsions? In that case, luck is too good.

His defense is very clean. Although there are general problems with the opponent's offense, his defensive skills are very solid.

Physical confrontation should be regarded as above the passing line of the NBA, with a certain ability to attack with the ball, which is indeed the immediate combat power that the team needs.

I just don't know, what will happen to Ye Feng's growth in the NBA?Another point is that our 29th pick in the first round probably won't be able to pick him! "

Old Nelson nodded, "Even if you are lucky, it is also a sign of strength!
She is indeed a good boy, she is only 19 years old, and her future growth can be expected.

We can try to trade up, improve our pick, and see if we can get him.

Both the Celtics and the Grizzlies have two first-round picks, and the picks are not bad, but they can try to operate. "

"If you don't get the pick, it's okay. Josh Howard seems to have performed better than expected. He is exceptionally good in physical tests. He is not well-known. The trial performance is good, even if Le Xiu is signed, it is estimated that some teams will bet on his outstanding physical fitness.

However, this year, it is estimated that it will fall.

Even if Ye Feng and Josh Howard didn't fall off, and they were all picked away, it's fine! ! "

"We have other options. At best, let our team owners spend more money."

"..."

The assistant coach next to him nodded.

It really is.

Old Nelson smiled and continued: "Antawn Jamison of the Warriors is a restricted player this year.

I heard that the Warriors don't want to spend money on him, and Jamison also wants to leave the Warriors and go to a higher and bigger stage.

I have already contacted him.

In addition, Antoine Walker's contract with the Celtics has also ended.

If the Celtics are unwilling to give up the draft pick, then they will poach me one of their twin stars. "

The assistant coach beside him showed excitement on his face, "Two Antoines!!

Both of them are good offensive players, averaging 20+ performances per game.

As long as our team can win one of them, we won't have to work so hard next season when we face the Spurs. "

"No!"

Old Nelson shook his finger, with a confident smile on his face, "It's not one of them.

But the two of them, I want them all.

If we can't break through the Spurs this year, then we either don't do it, or we do it, and we do it big. "

"what?"

"Two Antoines, two players averaging 20+ per game, do we want them all?"

The other coaches had shock on their faces.

This is to make a big deal!

Old Nelson's words didn't end, and he turned his eyes to the rookies who were dueling on the court, "You misunderstood what I meant, and what I meant didn't just refer to the trade of two super scorers with 20+ points.

And yes, the rookie player, Ye Feng, we also want to win.

If Ye Feng can't catch up, the minimum guarantee is to take Josh Howard with all his strength. "

Old Nelson's words are really crazy, but isn't this his true nature?
Thinking of the future, imagining the offensive line in the future, the extremely luxurious Mavericks.

The old Nelson was full of energy, and even the depression of losing two consecutive games to the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals was swept away.

Then, he shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't want to use this lineup to bully people.

but!
Who made our team have a cute and self-willed boss!
For the championship, everything is worth it. "

Cute, means yes I love basketball.

Willful means rich.

The Dallas Mavericks, despite appearing somewhat overwhelmed by the Spurs in this year's Western Conference Finals.

but…

The Mavericks coached by Nelson also proved the correctness of his philosophy.

The team is indeed on the right path.

The regular season was 60 wins and 22 losses, the same record as the No. [-] team in the league, and led the team to the fiercely competitive Western Conference Finals.

The opponents in front of the Mavericks are only the Spurs.

There is another one, the Lakers with the "OK combination".

The unprecedented arms war has already begun.

The rich Lakers lost.

The Mavericks, who wanted to be a giant, were also prepared to lose.

There is only one NBA championship.

……

Closer to home.

On the field, Ye Feng, winning that is an easy one.

Next, Josh Howard played Dior, and there was no suspense. Using his body and defense, he also played Dior without the slightest temper.

The simple trial training is coming to an end.

"I will try my best to raise the team's draft number by a dozen to sign you.

Of course, this year is the year of the draft, and almost all other teams will be more conservative in their operations.

I have no way to guarantee that you will be selected by our team.

But, here's our draft promise to you. "

Ye Feng nodded, very satisfied with such a promise.

However, I would tell myself in my heart: just listen to it, don't take it seriously.

Until the moment when the answer is revealed, no one will know what the answer is?
Where will I go next stop?
"Nash, Nowitzki, Finley, Antawn Jamison, Antawn Walker..."

If it comes to me again, such a fairy offensive lineup is indeed very tempting and explosive.

"Whether I can tell others in the future that I have never fought such a rich battle, it depends on how well the Mavericks operate."

Ye Feng shook his head and looked towards the sky, "I'm just a rookie, I really don't want to hug my thigh."

wrong!

It seems that the Lakers in the City of Angels are still missing.

In other words, the Lakers, who lost this year's championship, seem to want to do a big job, like fireworks, blooming the most shining flowers, and they are born as summer flowers.

In Jackson's words, it was the last dance with the Lakers.

"By the way, the Lakers seem to have a 24th pick in the first round. I don't know, can I also be one of the dancers?"
