Chapter 165 Scouting Report
In late April, Bill Duffy arranged for Ying Xiong to go to the United States for an ankle injury appraisal at a well-known hospital in Houston, and issued a certificate of appraisal.The purpose of his move is to let those teams that have concerns about Yingxiong's ankle injury put aside their concerns.In fact, this step is very important. Before the NBA lottery has officially started, make some preparations so that the team with the highest possible pick (the bottom-ranked team) will not exclude Yingxiong.Although Ying Xiong has good talent and potential, and has a market in Greater China, according to reliable sources, the rookies participating this year are all very high-level, and if they want to enter the first round or even the top ten, any omissions in any link will lead to a significant increase in their selection. slide.

Bill Duffy, as a well-known industry insider, is naturally very clear about the NBA draft.

Regarding Yingxiong's draft prospects, Bill Duffy is generally quite optimistic.But there are not without disadvantages. There are two main points: one is Ying Xiong's injury.Although his injury will not affect his career in the future, and it is not a devastating injury, but because of this injury, he cannot participate in joint trial training and individual trial training, making those who are interested in him wait and see It is more difficult for teams with attitude to make a decision to choose him.Even with a professional injury appraisal report.There are so many high-talented outside players in this year's rookie, so the teams with high picks have a wide range of choices. If they are not willing to take risks on him, the picks will naturally decline; the second is his career. career.As compatriots of China, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian became famous earlier, and both have rich national names and experience in international competitions.This is very important for a player of yellow race.Because the NBA will refer to the player's performance against strong teams in the international arena.And Ying Xiong has been playing in the CBA since the high school league. Although his performance in the CBA was perfect, he was not selected by the national team due to injuries, and he had no experience in international competitions, which made NBA teams look at him. have concerns.You must know that although the CBA has been improving, the gap with the NBA is still far away.Whether a person who is unstoppable in the CBA can adapt well and continue to perform well in the NBA, which is several levels higher, is a big question mark!
This year's draft conference is known as the "Draft Year" by the outside world, and many young talents will participate in the draft.Among the current rookies, there are especially many backcourt talents.The core guard Derrick Rose from the University of Memphis, OJ Mayo from the University of Southern California, Russell Westbrook from UCLA, Eric Gordon from Indiana University and many other NCAA super guards participated in this session. draft.

Competing with these talented defenders from the United States, Ying Xiong from China is under a lot of pressure to compete.Of course, Yingxiong also has his own advantages. He can play PG, SG, and SF positions, and has a height of more than 3 meters. This is a natural advantage among backcourt players.

In the latest mock draft rankings, Ying Xiong was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers with the 13th overall pick in the first round.Ying Xiong himself is quite satisfied with the results of this mock draft. Although he didn't make it into the top ten lottery area, the 13th pick is a good position.You know, the famous Kobe Bryant was selected with the 1996th overall pick in the first round in 13.Moreover, the Portland Trail Blazers team has many young talents, and the team has a bright future.

As the draft draws closer, the scouting reports of the popular rookies have also been announced one after another.Ying Xiong did not participate in the team's trial training, so his dynamic physical test data has not been made public, but the static physical test data does exist.As for his scouting report, he mainly uses his CBA games as a reference.

Yingxiong's static body measurement data

Height: 203cm (6ft 8in)

Weight: XNUM X kg
Arm span: 220cm
Standing touch height: 268cm
Fat content: 5.5%
Palm length: 22cm
应雄自从2008年元旦到现在，身高仅仅只增长了0.5cm。这和前几年一年长高十几二十公分不可同日而语。对他来说，未来的身高估计也不会有太大的变化了，大概就是203cm左右（6英尺8英寸），到不了206cm（6英尺9英寸）了的。

For Ying Xiong, such static physical fitness is already very good. With a height of 203cm, he can play as a point guard, as well as at the 2nd and 3rd positions, which will be more suitable for the team; the wingspan of 220cm is not like the wingspan that a yellow man should have. You must know that 226cm Yao Ming's wingspan is only 220cm! The fat content of 5.5% is already very low, but this is also due to his somewhat thin figure; the palm length of 22cm can flexibly grasp the basketball, which is very helpful for controlling the ball.

Due to injuries, Ying Xiong's dynamic physical measurement data has not been released.However, according to the analysis of NBA industry insiders, based on his performance in the CBA, his jumping, speed, and explosive power are all at the top level among yellow people.

On the whole, Ying Xiong's current physical talent is quite good, which has also largely changed people's inherent impression of the poor physical condition of the yellow race.

Best Template: LeBron James
When seeing this scout report, Ying Xiong was very emotional.He has to admit that NBA scouts are indeed very professional.By watching the game, you can clearly analyze the current strengths and weaknesses of a player, and the analysis is detailed, even clearer than the parties involved.The shortcomings listed in the scout report really need to be improved by Ying Xiong himself in the future, which saves him from self-analysis, and only needs to carry out targeted training according to the content of the scout report.

The scout report defined his template as LeBron James, and Ying Xiong just laughed it off.This kind of thing doesn't have to be taken too seriously.Could it be that the template is James, and I really have a chance to become a star of James' level?The template is nothing more than finding a star with a similar style of play in the league.He believes that his style of play is not close to that of James, but there is no other star in the league with his style of play.
