NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 849

After the Lakers won the championship, Los Angeles was very lively.

As the management team, West and the magician prepared a media meeting on the second day, including the championship coach and personal interviews with members of the dynasty, and the championship parade a few days later...Kobe, Artest and others Smoking a cigar, dressed like a black club, standing on the parade bus to tour the city, but Li Shengli was not too excited, and stood beside Crotty.

Because, now the alliance's lottery conference has already ended.

……

The record of the Washington Wizards last season was ranked third from the bottom among all teams, and they were lucky enough to get the No. [-] lottery in the lottery. This made Li Shengli feel safe. As long as Jordan agreed, Yao would be the No. [-] pick.

It stands to reason that, except for the Lakers, Li Shengli cannot control how any team chooses and uses draft picks. After all, the quality of the draft means the team's record, and the team's record affects the team's income. General manager, this matter is not child's play.

But in fact, before the lottery meeting, it may be earlier...

Kwame Brown, who Jordan was optimistic about at the beginning, Eddie Curry, a small shark who weighed 18 pounds at the age of 300, and Tyson Chandler, who used O'Neal as a template for the draft, are also known as the three treasures of high school, and they are also absolute favorites in the draft. , No matter which one they set their sights on the Wizards with the first overall pick.

However, the problem is that Dayao also appeared this year.

In fact, foreign players are nothing new now, not only Dayao, but also Paul Gasol from Spain among the draft picks. conspicuous.

……

You know, Dayao's average per game in the domestic league is almost 40+20+5.

It is hard to say that the strength of the domestic league is not enough, but Yao also played in the Olympics, and he still played strongly when he met the top insiders of the Dream Four. Camp, blow up Tyson Chandler, one of the three treasures.

Although that time was only a trial training, and there were very few video materials released to the media in the training camp, the problem is that many people can confirm that Tyson Chandler was indeed blown up, and with this experience... Tyson Chandler Dele is a favorite in the draft, so it doesn't make sense that Yao isn't.

Especially Jordan, more in the eyes.

In the original training camp, Kwame Brown, whom he was optimistic about, was also there, but Kwame Brown was held down by Tyson Chandler, and Tyson Chandler was blown away by Dayao, and the inside Under the circumstances, coupled with the analysis of the entire Wizards team, his choice has basically been locked, which is a good choice, at least what he saw makes him a good choice.

……

After the finals in mid-June, the 6th at the end of June will be the draft.

Li Shengli returned to Greenville from Los Angeles, and there was no surprise at the draft in New York... The Wizards selected Dayao with the No. [-] pick under Jordan's manipulation.

In addition, Tyson Chandler was taken by the Clippers with the second pick and immediately changed to Elton Brand of the Bulls, and the Bulls already had the No. [-] pick and took Eddie Curry , so three of the three treasures go to the second, and the second goes to the bull.

The third pick is Spanish Paul Gasol.

The fourth pick is Eddie Curry, the little shark in front of him, and Kwame Brown fell into the arms of the fifth Golden State Warriors by accident. This result was far lower than what he and others expected, but there is no way ...

The No. [-] pick belongs to the Clippers, and the Clippers negotiated a deal with the Bulls.

The third pick belongs to the Eagles, and the result of negotiations between the Eagles and the Grizzlies is Gasol.

The No. [-] pick still belongs to the Bulls. The Bulls lineup does not need Kwame Brown, who likes jumpers, but looks forward to Eddie Curry, a small shark who uses O'Neal as a template.

So Kwame Brown was embarrassed to find out that because of Dayao's appearance, his draft position was seriously affected. What's more serious was that the total rookie contract was reduced by 400 million US dollars, and he couldn't do it until after the draft. Accepting this result, I blamed the Wizards in my heart, and also cursed that the Wizards got a...parallel champion.

……

In any case, as long as you can enter the league, it will be fine.

Just after the draft was over, Jordan took Dayao to Greenville and started special training for Dayao as agreed. This time, not only did Li Shengli contribute, but so did Jordan, who was really in the car. He just invited top insiders to do the training The trainer also needs to prepare time, so Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Li Shengli, young and old, will play first.

To be honest, Dayao's barefoot height of 226 is indeed the first echelon of the league's centers.

But looking at the wingspan alone is really not outstanding. Generally, the height and wingspan are 1:1. Many people's wingspan data will be more exaggerated, but there are also many wingspans that are shorter than their height. In this regard, Yao is the latter , 225 is close to the height, but it is not fatal to have a height of 226.

What is really fatal is that Dayao's confrontation is not enough.

Confrontation ability is something that is absolutely indispensable for people who are on the inside line all the year round, and Dayao's weight before the draft was about 300 kilograms within 134 pounds, which is similar to Eddie Curry, the fourth overall pick, but Eddie Curry Di Curry is only 213 tall.

Gaining weight can improve confrontation, but it also takes into account derivative issues such as endurance and speed.

It's just that these are all things for the future, and this training plan doesn't have time to consider them, so what the base camp can really do is to let Dayao get used to the strongest confrontation first, and at the same time systematically strengthen his basket. Kind of offensive technique inside.

To this end, Jordan also brought a professional training team.

The base camp has all the venues and equipment, so the training is not delayed, and the physical training is done by the trainer group, the skill training is done by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and the confrontation training is done by Li Shengli. This kind of training has been going on for more than a month. The speed visible to the naked eye is growing.

……

"Li, the recent training effect is good, I feel that my youth is back!" After the training of the day, Jordan seemed to have found the latest direction of struggle when he saw Dayao, and he was particularly motivated every day.

"Your youth is back?" Li Shengli and Jordan sat down in a place on the training ground, couldn't help but glanced at Jordan and said, "Come on, I remember you are 38, why are you so fucking 40?" Have youth?"

"Why not, no one really thinks I'm old?"

"Man, look at Yao now, he is already my man, I believe he will play well!"

"There are still several deals that are about to be negotiated. I have enough reasons to believe that the Wizards' time is coming. More importantly, I will witness this moment on the court. When the new season starts, I will tell everyone. Michael Jordan is 50 years old and can still beat everyone!"
