19 who is that guy
"Li, are you also here to participate in the joint trial training? With your talent, some teams should consider you"

Korver seemed to have just remembered that Li Hao had also come here.

"I hope so." Li Hao smiled, he didn't want to say anything more on this topic.

"Kyle, do you know that player?" Li Hao pointed to the black rookie who impressed him just now.

"Are you talking about Dwyane Wade? He is not a nobody, the ace of Marquette University. He is the 13th pick in the first round of the latest espn draft simulation list. If God didn't take a meniscus from him , he is at least the top three pick." Korver showed an envious look at Dwyane Wade on the court.

"But he still seems to be strong despite the lack of a meniscus, and it doesn't have any impact." Li Hao had to lament the black man's strong physical talent.

"It looks like this, but you know that NBA teams are very cautious in terms of player injuries. Many people complain about Dwyane, but who can guarantee that his body will be able to adapt to the high-intensity NBA? "

It turned out that the black rookie was named Dwyane Wade, and Li Hao remembered him deeply.

Not long after, Yao Zhijun and the others came back and signaled Li Hao to go to the other side for a physical test first. After Li Hao and Korver said hello, they went there.

The items required for joint trial training are not much different from those invited by the team for trial training. Both physical tests are performed first, and then trial training with the ball is conducted.

Li Hao quickly completed the physical test, and then he came here again. Because there are a lot of players who came to the trial training, everyone had to line up for the trial training with the ball.

"Ah Hao, this is the general manager of the Houston Rockets, Mr. Carol Dawson"

When Li Hao was standing there waiting for a trial with the ball, Yao Zhijun led a middle-aged white man to introduce him. The middle-aged white man wore a pair of glasses, but his left eye looked a little strange.

"Hi, Mr. Carol Dawson." Li Hao extended his right hand politely.

"Li, it's nice to meet you. Before that, I've read the information about you more than once, and it looks great." Dawson laughed heartily.

"Ahao, Mr. Dawson is here specially for you today," Yao Zhijun explained.

"That's right, Li, I'm here for you. The Houston Rockets need you to join us. There is your compatriot Yao. We all look forward to seeing you all fighting side by side in the Houston Rockets." Dawson obviously came prepared.

"The Houston Rockets are a great team, and Houston is also a beautiful city. It must be my honor to play there." Li Hao also responded in a timely manner.

"Then Li, can I formally extend an invitation to you on behalf of the Houston Rockets?" Dawson didn't expect Li Hao to be so straightforward, and it seemed that his plan could be easily realized.

"Mr. Dawson, it depends on what promise you can make?" Yao Zhijun interrupted.

"I can guarantee right now that we'll take Lee at No. 44 overall."

When it comes to guarantees, Dawson seems a little guilty. He doesn't look as confident as before.

"No. 44?" Yao Zhijun and Li Hao frowned at the same time, just a second-round pick?

"Mr. Dawson, with all due respect, your promise sounds insincere." Yao Zhijun said with a displeased face.

"Please believe that we are absolutely sincere to you, but to be honest, regarding this year's draft, the Houston Rockets are destined not to be the protagonist, because our first-round pick has already been traded, and we only have the second-round pick." Dawson Some helplessly shook his head.

"Well, Mr. Dawson, we can also make a formal commitment to you. If we fall to the second round, we are willing to join the Houston Rockets"

Yao Zhijun's answer gave Dawson some hope, but Dawson also knew very well that this kind of hope didn't look much different from nothing.

Dawson is a general manager who dares to gamble. At the beginning, it was his decisiveness and boldness that finally allowed the Rockets to successfully win Yao Ming. In just one season, Yao Ming gradually began to honor Dawson's trust, which made Dawson Thinking about it now, Sen still has a sense of accomplishment.

More than a week ago, the team's international scout Simon gave him a piece of information from a Chinese defender, which made Dawson, who had tasted the sweetness of Yao Ming, very interested.

So, he read the information in detail, and then Dawson secretly delighted, he felt that it seemed to be a gift from God again.

"Go all out to win this Chinese defender and invite this Chinese defender to try out" Dawson gave Simon such an order.

Dawson never believed in the rhetoric that yellow people can't play in the NBA. Yao Ming is an example.

Besides, signing this Chinese defender with a second-round pick, even if he was mistaken, it would not be such a big loss. The Chinese market behind Li Hao alone has benefited the team a lot, the boss So does Alexander.

However, a few days later, when he was paying attention to the latest mock draft list given by ESPN, he found that the Chinese defender was ranked 33rd.

To be honest, Dawson was a little panicked. He felt that this gift from God would be taken away by others, because other teams would definitely pay attention to this Chinese defender.

Dawson suddenly regretted it. He knew that he would not have traded the first-round pick to the Memphis Grizzlies a month ago. You must know that it was the 13th pick in the first round, even though he chose to trade the first-round pick for salary space.

"If there is still a first-round pick, I will be sure to win Li."

Looking at the back of Li Hao walking towards the training ground, Dawson muttered in his heart unwillingly. As for now, he really can only hope that Li Hao will fall to the second round, but is that really possible?

In the middle of the training ground, it was finally Li Hao's turn to try out with the ball. He took the basketball from the ball boy, and like the other players present, he began to express himself casually, shooting, dunking and so on.

"Doug, this kid is Li Hao. I have read all his materials, and I have even watched the video of him in the final of the World Youth Championship in Greece more than once. In my opinion, he is one of the rookies in this class. The defender with the best ball-handling skills, the most incredible thing is that as a Chinese, his physical fitness is very strong, he is the gene of the combination of Chinese XZ people and XJ people”

When Li Hao completed a dunk with a big windmill, what he didn't know was that someone was talking about him on the side of the training field at this time.

"Smith, like you said, this kid has top-notch ball-handling skills, and his height seems to be a little taller than the standard height of a point guard, which allows him to match up with players at the same position. More advantages, I still stick to the original opinion, we can consider him, once this kid can bring us surprises, it is not just as simple as the huge Chinese market behind him, we can even look forward to the backcourt between him and Tracy combination"

"I discussed this child with the team owner Mr. Richard DeVos before. The owner's meaning is very clear. Sign this child, even if it is aimed at the Chinese market behind him."
