Chapter 39: Draft Situation
Soon it will be the official joint trial training organized by the NBA.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zelin appeared on the list of invited players for the comprehensive trial training.
Similarly, his outstanding physical fitness was made public for the first time in front of the world, and it was hotly debated for a while.
The most intuitive thing is that in the system space, Wang Zelin discovered the rapid increase in fan value.
The official NBA scouting report:
It is really hard to imagine that the static physical quality of this Chinese center is almost the same as that of Shaquille O’Neal back then. Although his running and jumping talent is far inferior to that of the rookie Shark, he is not inferior to most black basketball players who mainly play inside;
What’s more valuable is that, on the premise of possessing such a strong physical quality, he still retains the excellent touch that is unique to the big men of the Celestial Dynasty.
This young Chinese center may be worthy of the name “King”. His talent is enough to compete with Anthony Davis for the No. 1 pick, but past experience tells us that the physical endurance of Chinese players is always subject to discussion.
Evaluation:
Five-star heat!
Four and a half stars potential!
The last half star is reserved for injuries.
This is a high-end version of Shaquille O’Neal who can shoot. The upper limit may be his fellow YAO, and the lower limit may be another Greg Oden.
To paraphrase the most vulgar but most classic words: the sky is his limit!
As soon as the comprehensive trial training ended, Wang Zelin was on fire as he expected, and it was a huge fire.
A big shark who can shoot is still a high match. Except for injuries, no one can predict where his upper limit will be.
Before the comprehensive trial training, there were only six or seven teams that invited Wang Zelin individually. After the comprehensive trial training, except for the teams that could not come up with their own chips or had potential stocks, all the remaining teams The team sent him a separate tryout invitation.
In the days that followed, Wang Zelin was busy again.
Boring and numb!
This is the feeling of the trial training trip in his heart.
Fortunately, he can gain experience playing against NBA-level players or NCAA star players in each trial, too.
To put it bluntly, this group of people is definitely one of the hundreds of the best basketball players on the planet. Being able to fight against such high-level opponents has already brought him a lot.
After playing against a variety of opponents, Rick Mahone and Oakley have given him more and more skilled insider skills.
As for Bowen’s unique skills, in fact, he hopes that there is no day when he needs to use it.
The management of these teams, after watching the entire trial training process of Wang Zelin on the spot, agreed that their teams should sign this big man from China as much as possible.
He has the potential to become a league supergiant, provided he can withstand the onslaught of injuries.
Talent and injury, these two words make Wang Zelin frequently on the hot search, which also makes his current NBA draft market a bit weird.
To praise his good team, I can’t wait to take him to the sky and directly compete with this year’s No. 1 pick Anthony Davis.
Speaking of his poor team, although it won’t be enough to demote him to the end of the second round, it’s not much better.
This kind of drama plays out every day until the eve of the NBA draft.
This year’s NBA draft, as in previous years, is still held in Madison Square in New York.
For Wang Zelin, this may be a very memorable day in his career, so Wang Changhai and his wife took a special plane to New York, USA a few days ago, and went to Madison Square Garden with him.
Finally, on the day of the draft, Wang Zelin and his party of five came to Madison Square Garden.
Unsurprisingly, Wang Zelin, one of the most popular players in this draft, became the second Chinese person to appear in the Little Green House after Yi Jianlian.
As the name suggests, the Little Green House is a house with green walls throughout.
Generally, they are the rookies who were favored by the league that year, and can only come in after receiving an invitation from the president.
Yao Ming also had this qualification back then. For some reason, he could only watch the process of being selected as the top pick by the Mosaic team through broadcasting in China.
In a sense, Yao Ming has also created a history – the first player in NBA history to be selected as the No. 1 pick even though he was not in the Little Green House or even in the draft!
There is quite a bit of the style of “Brother is not in Jianghu, but Jianghu has always had brother legends”.
Let the camera go back to Wang Zelin.
After a group of them entered the small green house, they found a table with his own name and sat down.
“King!”
“Damien!”
Lillard is wearing a long light blue shirt and brown trousers today, and the most flamboyant is undoubtedly the flower-colored bow at the neckline.
“You’re so handsome today, whoever didn’t know it thought it was a supermodel!”
“Hahaha! King, you are too good at complimenting people. I’m a little embarrassed for what you said.”
Having said that, Wang Zelin didn’t feel any embarrassment from this guy.
After a few simple greetings, Wang Zelin glanced around.
Inside the Green House:
The future leader of the league!
The future second point guard of the league!
God Zhuang!
2K will always drop God!
…
The little green house is also good outside:
The master of “Green’s formula”!
Hot man!
…
Although the 2012 NBA draft is not comparable to the historically significant super draft years such as 84, 96, and 03, I have to admit that from 2010 to 2021, when Wang Zelin crossed over, the 12-year draft can be said to be the best in the past 10 years. one term.
This year’s draft conference can definitely be called the “draft year”.
Amid the boos from the sky, the president of the alliance finally came out after a long call.
“Gentlemen! Ladies! Welcome everyone…”
When the spotlight hit the stage, a kind old man with gray hair and golden glasses appeared on the draft stage.
It was only when people suddenly remembered that this was David Stern’s 19th year as the league president.
In the blink of an eye, with blue silk and white hair, he suddenly looked back, with a lot of vicissitudes in his heart!
How many 19 years can there be in life!
According to later memory, this should be the penultimate year for David West as the league president.
Returning with emotion, the familiar boos quickly resounded through the audience.
Then, when a list appeared in David Stern’s hand, everyone in the audience instantly lost their voices. The list seemed to have great magic and attracted everyone’s attention.
The 2012 draft list!
…
“The No. 1 pick in the first round belongs to the New Orleans Hornets, who will have five minutes to consider.”
There is no suspense in the result. The Hornets management chose Anthony Davis from the University of Kentucky, who has the title of “Son of the United States”, as the cornerstone of their team building.
Although Wang Zelin has recently become a top player in the top spot, he still lacks the background compared to the “Son of the United States”.
With the second overall pick, the Bobcats selected small forward Michael Gilchrist, also from the University of Kentucky.
Boss Qiao’s look at people has become as vicious as ever.
The Wizards with the third overall pick selected…
While the draft is going on, another battlefield is surging.
“Nell, the latest news, the Pistons suddenly have a very high interest in King.”
In the box belonging to the Blazers, head coach Terry Stotts delivered bad news.
“What, isn’t Andre Drummond the first choice for the Motor City all the time?”
“Why did they suddenly change their minds?”
“I remember King went to Detroit for a tryout not long ago. Did they…”
For a while, David Vanderpool, Kim Hughes and others were in a bit of chaos.
Don’t look at Wang Zelin’s bright appearance now, but Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian’s lessons are too much to persuade him to quit.
Until now, for the teams that have been clamoring for the high potential of Wang Zelin, except for the Mosaic and the Trail Blazers, no management team has ever announced in public that they would use their own picks. he.
Through the PY trade, the Blazers have persuaded the only competitor, Mosaic, to give up the competition for Wang Zelin, so now they agree that this Celestial Center is the non-direct team.
But now, some things seem to be beyond their control.
