Chapter 10 010: Sharp Eyes
The next day, when Silas saw Henson in the restaurant of the hotel, he could tell at a glance that this guy must have stayed up late yesterday to read documents.Henson's big eye bags and dark circles make it easy to spot.

"Good morning Henson, didn't you sleep well yesterday?" Stephen Silas asked with a smile.

"I slept a little late, but it doesn't affect today's work." Henson waved his hand and brought a plate of fried eggs and ham.

"There is indeed a lot of information, and you can't read it all in one day. Hansbrough is definitely a long-term goal, so you don't have to worry, you can study it slowly."

"It's quite a lot. I didn't finish watching until 02:30 yesterday."

"Pfft!" After Henson finished speaking, Silas almost spit out the coffee in his mouth, "You mean, you finished reading those materials in one night?"

"Well, these data are nothing compared to those equations done in college." Henson smiled easily.

Silas couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart, the person Byrd fell in love with really possessed unique skills.It took him a week to sort out those materials, but Henson thoroughly researched them all in one night.

After a simple breakfast, Silas and Henson went around the UCB campus.Since today is a game day, many students are wearing Golden State Bears T-shirts. It seems that the Golden State Bears' local influence is no less than that of the Golden State Warriors.

"Our goal, Hansbrough, what do you think of him? Is he really what the team needs as Bird said?" While wandering around the campus, Henson also chatted with Silas about work.

"Hansbrook is actually not a genius, but he is the hardest worker. Bird once told me that a rookie who is willing to work hard is worth a team's risk. And don't people often say a word? When you don't know who to choose, you must pick an insider." Silas spread his hands. Those truly top talents are not the Pacers' turn to pick this season.

It is indeed very uncomfortable to be caught in this position where it is difficult to make the playoffs and it is difficult to get a high draft pick.

"I watched the game video you gave me yesterday. This guy is almost unbeatable in the NCAA. He is already a senior, his skills are very mature, and his awareness is better than others. I would say that he is even greater than Jordan in the NCAA. But if he plays in the NBA, I doubt it." Henson carefully compared Hansbrough's data and game videos yesterday, and found that Hansbrough is actually not as perfect as he imagined.

As a white insider with a height of 2 meters, his height and wingspan are very ordinary, and he has no shooting range.And the low-level technology also looks very young.One characteristic of Hansbrough's playing is that he is willing to work hard!In college, Hansbrough's body was impeccable. As long as he was willing to work hard, most people would not be his opponents. This is why Hansbrough was able to dominate the NCAA.But in the NBA, in the three-second zone where there is no shortage of tough guys, can Hansbrough still play to his advantage?That's hard to say.

"In short, we have to watch his game first. You know, Bird thinks highly of him, so our job is to analyze that guy thoroughly and present him in front of Bird." Silas said, walking towards the arena of the Golden State Bears.The game is almost about to start.

When Henson and Silas walked into the arena, there were not many people in the arena, but there were already some fans sitting sparsely.Silas took Henson to his seat, the first row opposite the bench, and he could follow all the movements of the entire stadium!In the first row, Henson could finally sit here without being called up by others.

In the seats next to Henson and Silas were two young girls, who seemed to be college students of our school.The two groups of people didn't have any intersection, and Hansen really wanted to get to know these young and beautiful girls, but he was a typical pervert but not courageous.

"Hansbrook scored 26 points and 17 rebounds in the last game, but 26 of the 20 points came from the three-second zone, and 6 points came from free throws. Outside the three-second zone, this guy is almost no threat." Henson continued to chat with Silas, neither holding the phone nor the data.

Silas looked at the guy beside him in surprise, "How do you know his last game's statistics?"

"Because I've memorized them all, not just from the last game. To be precise, I know all of his stats from the last 15 games. In 10 games, only [-]% of his points came from outside the three-second zone and free throws. Although Hansbrough's stats are gorgeous now, in the NBA, his scoring is definitely not good. Because this guy's offensive methods are too simple." Henson replied calmly. cooked.

After a while, the players of the Golden State Bears came out to warm up.It can be seen that although it is only a warm-up match, they still attach great importance to it.After all, the opponent is this year's favorite North Carolina.To play against a strong team, one must be prepared to accumulate experience.After all, after March Madness, every opponent they encountered was extremely powerful.

Henson's eyes were fixed on the players who were warming up, while Silas looked around because his target, Hansbrough, hadn't appeared yet.

"I'll bet you a hamburger, Silas," Henson said with a smirk on his face, "Today, our Hansbrough is going to be in big trouble."

"Big trouble? Why do you know that?" Silas is becoming more and more interested in Henson now, and every word this guy says must have his basis.

"See that big man over there who is about the same height as Hansbrough?" Henson pointed to a black player who was warming up for shooting.

The player looked unremarkable, with a cropped head, thin and dark, no tattoos, no features.If Henson hadn't said it, Silas might not have noticed him at all.

"Who is that guy?"

"Tai Gibson, UCB's starting power forward, has averaged 2.9 blocks per game so far this season! In the three years of college, the average number of blocks per game has not been lower than 1.9 times. Although this guy is mediocre in size, he is definitely a champion on the defensive end."

Henson's words seemed to have attracted the attention of the two girls beside him.And Silas was stunned, who is Tai Gibson?Is it really that powerful?
"You know Gibson?" Finally, one of the girls next to Henson asked curiously.

"Of course, I know that he is the number one defensive player of the Golden State Bears. Not only defensively, this guy is also quite rich in offensive methods. At least, richer than Hansbrough."

"I said, how do you know him? Did you do your homework last night?" Silas looked surprised. He didn't know this Gibson at all, let alone provide information to Henson.

Of course, Henson couldn't say that he could get these data as long as he saw people, he just nodded slightly, acquiescing to Silas' statement.

And it is not Gibson's data that attracts Henson the most. In terms of data, Hansbrough's data is more gorgeous.The reason why he was so interested in Gibson was because the data analysis module showed him that the evaluation of Gibson's potential value was A-!Another little-known player with top potential!
"How much do you know about the Golden State Bears? I don't think you are a fan of our school, sir." Hearing Henson's analysis clearly, the two girls next to him immediately became interested in Henson.Henson was a little surprised, talking about basketball can also flirt with girls?No, no, you must be calm and steady!

"I also know that your freshman, DeMar DeRozan, will definitely be picked in the top ten. Although he is not the team's scoring leader, he has great potential. He likes to finish the offense in the middle distance, which makes his scoring efficiency rank second in the team. The first is Ty Gibson. But you have to know that Gibson is an insider, while DeRozan is a swingman. If he is more polished, he may also become a scoring killer in the NBA."

"Demar? In my opinion, he just has excellent athletic ability." The girl's surprised face let Henson know that he had already made an impression on the other party.

"That's because you only remember DeMar's dunk, miss. In fact, judging from the distribution of DeRozan's shots, only 20% of his points per game come from dunks. What does this mean? Judging from his average of 13.9 points per game, DeMar may only have one dunk per game. Where do the other points come from? From the middle distance!" Henson pointed to the free throw line. I was taken aback.

Calculating these data is actually not difficult, as long as you give Silas a stack of data and a pen, he can also calculate it.But Henson was different. It was the first time that Silas had seen someone who could tell these complicated data just by the memory of his brain.This fellow Henson is simply a walking computer!
"You must be a person who likes basketball very much, sir. No one, even a fan of the Golden State Bears, can study the players so thoroughly." The young girl showed a bright smile and white teeth, and the firepower of youth rushed to her face in an instant, "Anjiali Ranadive, sir."

"Henson Joe, this is my friend Stephen Silas. He once played with Patrick Ewing's son." Henson stretched out his hand and held it with the young girl.

"Oh, really!? So, you guys still know Patrick Ewing?" Henson said in a flat tone, but instantly aroused the girl's curiosity.

Henson's skin itself is not ugly. The old Henson didn't know how to groom himself, his face was full of stubble, and his hair was messy, so he looked sloppy.But now Henson is different. He combed all the messy hair back meticulously.He shaved off his beard and looked much younger.He is young and stable, not to mention handsome, but at least he looks clean and energetic.More importantly, the calm and mysterious temperament exuded by Henson is very fatal to young girls.After all, not all girls like those stupid young men and silly boys who have just grown up in school.

"To tell you the truth, miss. I don't know Ewing very well, but I got along well with Larry Bird last night. In fact, it's not just players, my eyes can analyze many things. For example, you, miss." Henson said, staring straight at the young girl with his eyes that seemed to see through everything, causing a trace of blush to appear on the girl's face. "I can guarantee that you, like me, were not originally a local resident of the United States."

"How do you know?" the girl asked excitedly. In fact, her reaction made Henson more sure.

"First, your accent. Second, your appearance. On your face, I see a bit of the beauty of oriental blood."

This American-Indian girl was already smiling from ear to ear.
