I Really Just Want to Hit the Iron

Chapter 63: Scouting confused behavior ...

Skip college and go directly to the NBA?

And Kobe and Su Feng together?

"Interesting, interesting."

In the stands, looking at the center of the capital stadium, Kobe Bryant holding the championship trophy, and Su Feng beside Kobe, Miami Heat scout Jackson touched his chin and smiled.

"I ... I said guys, although I ... I know this is ... big news.

But ... but we are not ... different from those reporters, I ... we ... but we don't need to grab news.

Listen ... listen to me, yes ... or everyone will talk about it ... Since ... I have to Kobe and SHU ... Shufen What is your opinion? "

Sitting in the back row of Jackson, some stuttering scout Foyman suddenly suggested.

"Yes, who comes first?"

"Let Elvin come first, after all, this is his home court."

"Elvin, remember Sean Bradley of Birmingham University? Haha!"

"Why are you guys so bad? What is wrong with Sean Bradley?"

Isn't it ... Pooh, I can't edit it anymore, you guys come. "

In the stands, what was being mocked by the peers at this time was the "former" chief scout of the Philadelphia 76ers, now the assistant scout of the chief scout ......

Elvin Martinez.

A bunch of **** bastards!

What are the past three years, let's mention that!

Is it another three years, you have to mention it!

At this moment, Elvin's mentality collapsed.

Because in the summer of 1993, it was under his strong recommendation that the Philadelphia 76ers holding the No. 2 pick chose a height of 229 cm ...

Bamboo pole nicknamed "Essence of human being buckle" ——

Sean Bradley.

Well, the 76ers are perfectly avoiding all the correct options in the 1993 draft.

Because of Bradlin's height of 229 cm, and his humble, low-key, gentle personality, the 76ers decided to gamble on him.

It's a pity that Bradley doesn't care anymore, he can't eat a fat body no matter how he eats ...

In addition to being able to make countless beautiful girls salivate, on the basketball court, he really can only write a tragic character in capitals.

Perhaps no one is more popular than Bradley in the NBA of this era.

Because as long as you search for his name on YouTube, what you searched for is nothing more than "Bradley's top ten classic buckles", "You haven't buckled Bradley, do you mean to say you buckled? "And other videos.

"Xianfengdaogu" Bradley, with his thin body, improved the quality of the NBA's dunk of that era by a whole grade.

Ervin's judgment was wrong. The main problem was that he was too superstitious about Bradlin's height of 229 cm.

Future ESPN has counted such a set of interesting data.

When Dayao retired, there were 15 players over 221 cm tall in the NBA.

Of these 15 people, 5 have only played no more than 2 seasons.

And among these 15 people, who have averaged 20+ points per game in the season, only two are Ralph Thompson and Yao Ming.

In addition, among these 15 people, there have been 10+ rebounds per game in the season, only three people, they are: Sabonis, Thompson, Yao Ming.

Are you surprised?

Are you surprised?

This may be the best refutation for those who think that Dayao is only playing by height.

The NBA is never short of giants.

But among players over 221 cm, Dayao's shoulder width, hip circumference, agility, coordination, and speed are rare in a century.

Not every little giant is called Yao Ming.

Because the American version of the little giant Bradley told the world with practical actions, the NBA is not because you are tall, modest and polite, you can play.

This is an alliance of superheroes.

Is a league of weak meat and strong food.

Therefore, after Bradley brought Philadelphia fans despair again and again, Elvin lost his throne of chief scout.

If the 76ers boss remembered Elvin's hard work for many years, he might not even be able to keep the job of assistant scout of the chief scout.

And since then, Elvin has changed.

He started to become conscious.

He began to like to borrow media or peer evaluations because he felt he had lost his judgment as a scout.

For dinner, he chose ...

Mixing.

After all, a job with a stable income is really important for Elvin, who now has a family and children.

But, I do n’t know why ...

Since receiving an order from John Lucas to write him three reports about Kobe and Su Feng every week, Elvin felt ...

Own **** judgment ...

Is back again.

At this moment, looking at his peers who laughed at himself, Elvin thought to himself: You laugh.

I do not care!

"Let me first talk about my views on Kobe.

He is comprehensive in technology and has excellent physical talent.

In high school and high school, he played five positions on the court.

Also in the senior year, his organizational ability has improved significantly.

Therefore, I think that if Kobe skips college and enters the NBA, his pick should not be lower than the first twelve in the first round.

Let's talk about my views on Su again.

Su has a pair of enviable big hands and long arms.

His outstanding static talent allows him to defend from position 1 to position 5 in the high school league.

In addition, he has superb shooting skills. Not long ago, he once played 10 three-pointers in a single show.

At the same time, he is also the scoring champion of Pennsylvania this season, it can be seen that he practiced a lot of offensive skills in the summer.

Therefore, I think that if Su skips college and enters the NBA ...

I am willing to bet his future in the first 24 rounds. "Elvin looked at his colleagues and said.

"Twelve in the first round, twenty-four in the first round, Elvin, do you know what you are talking about?

This is not 1993, this is 1996!

Do you know how many outstanding young talents are going to run this year? "

Scout Adams shook his head, and then expressed his opinion:

"I admit that both Su and Kobe have many advantages.

But as far as Su is concerned, although he is the scoring champion of Pennsylvania this season ...

But his offensive methods I have observed are mainly based on catching jump shots, dry pulls and turning jump shots.

In the high school league, Su relies on his physical talents, of course, can crush his peers, but what about the NBA?

He lacks offensive means and lacks the ability to hold the ball as an outside player.

So I think that Su is most worth the middle of the second round. "

"I agree with Adams."

"I second."

"But ..." Elvin wanted to refute anything, but Jackson pulled him aside.

"Adams makes sense." Jackson smiled and smiled.

"However, I have a very interesting information, I want to share with you here." Jackson suddenly sold Guan Zi Road.

Aside, Foyman was anxious, "You ... you ... you ... have ... speak quickly ... say!"

"Do you know that in late November, Philadelphia 76ers coach John Lucas visited Raul Merion." Jackson said.

Cut!

I thought it was big news!

John Lucas lived in Philadelphia and went to watch Kobe and Su Feng playing. Isn't this a normal thing?

"Don't worry, listen to me, you know, this time with John Lucas and Jerry Starkhouse." Jackson added.

"Is that the North Carolina genius? Michael's brother?"

"I went to the scene to watch him play, a very talented young man."

"But what does this have to do with Su and Kobe?"

Jackson spread his hand, "The relationship is greater, because in Raul Merion, Jerry invited Su and Kobe to fight with him separately.

As a result, guess what? "

"......"

Looking at Jackson's face, almost all scouts swear in the heart of the United States.

"Sue and Kobe, both won Jerry!" Jackson laughed.

"This is impossible! How could Jerry ..."

"Where did you get the news?"

"Is the information accurate? Is there a video?"

"Nothing is impossible, of course the information is accurate.

As for the video, I do n’t have one. "Jackson looked at everyone and said.

what?

No video, how dare you say ...

"Unbelieve it? Do not believe you can ask Elvin.

And you can go and see Chinese media reports. Jackson smiled and patted Elvin's shoulder.

"Chinese media? Shouldn't they want to build momentum for Su in this way?" A scout guessed curiously.

"Is that necessary? You can also ask Raul Merion's players in private, they are all on the spot that day." Jackson added.

"But this too ..."

"Elvin, is this true?"

"Su and Kobe, really beat Jerry?"

In the stands, watching the guys look at themselves again, Elvin was a little dazed.

No, do n’t be surprised, Elvin ’s point is not that everyone looks at himself, but ...

How did this matter spread?

On the other side, the scout Martin of the Los Angeles Lakers was also stunned, lying down, where did Jackson know this news from?

Did we get out of the ghost?

You know, the reason why Martin knows that Su Feng and Kobe have won the Stackhouse in the heads-up is because his nephew Swartz ...

Went to school in Raul Merion and was a teammate with Su Feng and Kobe.

Erwin knew that the news seemed normal to Martin. After all, he was a 76ers scout.

But how did Jackson know?

Chinese media?

Wang Defa?

Martin subconsciously burst out a sloppy sentence.

Because he was very worried ...

This news will upset Jerry West about the layout of the draft in the near future.

In the stands, Elvin's acquiescence is almost equal to admitting.

"This is incredible, they are just high school students."

"Although it's just an ordinary heads-up, and Jerry may just play with them ..."

"Interesting, too interesting, but unfortunately there is no video, it is really a pity."

"But guys, I don't think we can make judgments based on such news alone.

And then there is McDonald's High School All-Star Game.

So I think we still have time to correct our judgment. "Scout Adams, after hearing this news, also felt that he had to observe Su Feng again.

It is best to invite Su Feng to come to Phoenix in the future training.

"me......"

Foyman, who was sitting in the back row of Jackson, seemed to be ready to say something, but he stuttered at the moment, feeling like he was stuck in his throat by something.

At this time, Philip sitting beside Foyman smiled, "I'll tell you, old man."

Looked at Philip and Foyman nodded.

"I think, no matter what, guys, Kobe and Su are all objects that we deserve to investigate.

After all, after they announced that they skipped the university, you also know that we have no more time to observe them.

I think whether it is Irving or Adams, they are very reasonable.

Kobe has comprehensive offensive skills. In my opinion, he is more mature than many NBA players.

He has a wide vision and is an excellent terminator.

In high school basketball, even if caught by three people, he can easily pass the ball out.

In addition, Kobe also has a fanatical desire to win. He is a player who can dominate the game.

But you also know that Kobe also has the possibility to become Harold Miner, so ...

I think Kobe may consider betting in the middle of the first round. Of course, Lotto is fine, because he is worth the price.

As for Su, Adams just mentioned that Su lacked offensive means.

It is true that in the high school league, Su's physical talent brought him a huge dislocation advantage.

But please think about it in reverse. Does n’t that mean that Su knows how to read the game?

He knows how to use his advantages, and this season I have watched many of his games ...

In addition to the offensive methods mentioned by Adams, Su obviously added a lot of low-level offense during the attack.

Even his fake moves and some rhythm changes made me feel as if he was already a professional player.

Well, Adams, don't look at me with that kind of eyes.

I know that Su's current offensive methods are still very rough, and can even be described as poor.

But this does not just prove that he has a certain talent on the offensive end?

I don't know what you think, but I'm very optimistic about Su. The reason I'm optimistic is not because of his offensive performance.

But his performance on the defensive end.

Guys, what is the most valuable gift in the current league?

Is it bouncing? Is it speed? Is it projection? Or height?

I don't think so, because in my opinion, even if Su is only a fixed-point shooter in the NBA, I think he is worth a bet.

Because he is an excellent defender, and defense is exactly what is precious in this era, like diamonds.

Su never refuses to lose on the court. Perhaps his upper limit is not as high as Kobe's, but his lower limit will never be too low.

I think he deserves a first-round pick if I choose it. Philip concluded.

"Indeed, Philip made sense."

"I agree!"

"I second!"

"Of course, whether it is Kobe or Su, they are two pieces of gold of unknown purity.

But, guys, isn't this the most interesting place?

If they are all Tim, what are we still arguing about today? Philip added.

"It makes sense, hey, although this year's draft convention is called the golden generation ...

But I always feel that competition will be fierce next year! "

"Just kidding, I'm not bragging, Tim has no shortcomings other than being young."

"The template I gave Tim anyway was Hakeem (Olajuwon)."

"I think Tim may be the most skilled rookie in the NBA in the past decade."

"Yes......"

In the stands, watching and talking about Duncan's colleagues, Elvin quietly leaned over to Jackson.

Just like players have their own circles and coaches have their own circles, scouts also have their own circles.

During this period, because information is not collected as well as in the future, most NBA scouts will share some information and information with their peers.

Even some scouts will borrow media reports.

But in Elvin's opinion, intelligence like Su Feng and Kobe defeated Stackhouse in the heads-up is already classified ...

For the 90s without social networks, whoever had the secrets of the rookies first, whoever has the absolute upper hand in the draft conference.

So Irvine really couldn't understand why Jackson would ...

"I know what you are thinking, Elvin.

But when Su and Kobe defeated Jerry, even if I did n’t say, sooner or later, everyone would know before the draft. "

Jackson patted Elvin's shoulder and whispered.

"Is it because of the Chinese media?" Elvin said slightly helplessly.

"I know you are very optimistic about Su and Kobe, after all, you are in Philadelphia." Jackson laughed.

"But buddy, don't you think ..." Before reaching Elvin's words, Jackson reached out to interrupt him.

"You are too honest, man."

Jackson spread his hand, "At that time in 1993, I thought you were an honest man.

But I didn't expect that after 3 years, you still don't have a long memory. "

Elvin: "..."

"Do you really think Adams was just deliberately picking Su's fault?

I already have reliable information, and Phoenix is ​​very interested in Su there.

Believe me, they will definitely be one of the first teams to send a trial invitation to Su.

Elvin, it ’s right to share information.

But as a scout, we are shouldering more than just providing intelligence to the team.

If we consider each NBA team as a country during the war, then we are agents, do you understand? Jackson laughed.

"This ... Phoenix is ​​interested in Sue?" The honest Elvin was stunned.

"Are you really going to be the chief scout by walking through the back door?" Jackson asked curiously.

"Uh......"

"You know, Foyman and Philip, actually work for Jerry West." Jackson said to Elvin's ear.

"Ah? But ... isn't Martin the scout of the Lakers?" Elvin was shocked.

"Martin is nothing more than a **** ...

Los Angeles is very interested in Kobe, so Philip will only draw everyone's focus to Su.

You see, when he evaluated Kobe, he used only our consensus.

But when evaluating Su, how thoroughly he analyzed.

Because Philip does n’t want us to pay too much attention to Kobe, you know? Jackson laughed.

Elvin felt like he understood this.

FK!

This is a group of intelligence players, and my heart is too dirty!

"So, I just help them." Jackson added.

"Why?" Irwin puzzled.

"Because, I am also very interested in Su.

I wish this pool of water was mixed as possible!

And you know, the alliance has begun to fully intervene in the Chinese market. Jackson laughed.

"I know, but in the Chinese market, I am not very optimistic." Elvin said.

"I am not optimistic, but I am optimistic about David (Stern) 's choice." Jackson said.

"However, if you are very interested in Su ..." Elvin felt that he had entered a dead end.

"So I shared that information, because then, people are more concerned than Su.

And, who told you what I just told you is the truth?

Maybe, I want to suggest that the team chose Kobe? Jackson laughed.

Elvin: "..."

Feeling somewhat powerless, Elvin looked up at the dome of the Harrisburg Capital Stadium.

Then, when everyone's eyes were attracted by Raul Merion who was celebrating in the center of the stadium ...

Can't pretend that Elvin ...

Corner of mouth suddenly drawn a strange arc.

Three years, do you really think I have been in vain for these three years?

Maybe I was an honest man three years ago.

But three years is enough to change too much, too much.

Since you labelled me as honest, then you are welcome.

In fact, Elvin is no stranger to the intrigue between scouts.

Because in the 90s, all scouts would do the same.

Again.

In an age without social networks, whoever has the most core information will be the last to laugh.

Take the classic exchange between the Raptors and Warriors in the future. It was precisely because the Raptors knew that the Warriors wanted Jamison, so he stopped Jamison.

And also used Jamison in exchange for the Carter they wanted plus cash.

In the future, there are many more intrigues in the draft, plus this year is still the year that the media is called the golden generation. It is not good to say that ...

Each team's investment in the draft this year is far more than in previous years.

So when Foyman asked everyone to analyze the market of Kobe and Su Feng today, Elvin explained everything he knew like an honest man.

Of course, Elvin confessed that he was the honest man.

And real, the core information about Su Feng and Kobe will appear on the desk of 76ers coach John Lucas in a few days.

This is a piece of information that Elvin spent a whole year investigating.

"Kobe has the potential to become the next Michael Jordan. He never refuses to lose and is full of vigor.

I don't think he will become Harold Miner because Kobe's basic skills are very good.

Therefore, if possible, I suggest that the team can use a XXXX pick to choose Kobe.

In addition, according to my investigation, Su only received basketball training for two years.

He had a poor foundation before, but in just two years, his progress can only be described by the speed.

And I hope the team can pay more attention to the news on the Chinese side, because once the NBA decides to intervene in the Chinese market, I believe in David (Stern) 's determination.

Therefore, if possible, I suggest that the team can use a XXXX pick to choose Su. "

Elvin's information can only be described in detail.

Even when doing this information, Elvin also asked Su Feng ’s teammates, coaches, and students for a lot of news.

All in all ...

Two self-disciplined to terrible young people, two young people full of desire to win and enthusiastic about basketball. In Elvin's view, Kobe and Su Feng, two pieces of gold of unknown purity, are worth a bet.

So, even if this pool of water is mixed, Elvin is not afraid, because as long as the 76 management and coaching staff are willing to believe in themselves, then no one will bid higher than theirs.

In fact, Phoenix's interest in Su Feng has long been known.

Even Elvin knew that Jackson didn't know.

For example, Seattle is also very interested in Su Feng.

"I think that Su's actual pick should swing between the first and second rounds. I have to say, it's a fascinating little guy ..."

Looked at Su Feng, who had put on a hat that symbolized the high school league championship, in the center of the stadium, Elvin smiled.

……

Cough, just when the scouts in the stands are intriguing ...

In the center of the capital stadium, Su Feng received the first FMVP trophy of his basketball career.

In the final, Su Feng scored a game-high 40 points.

Although his teammate Kobe also played the luxury data of "20 + 10 + 10", but perhaps to make this not to regret the CP career in high school, the event organizing committee finally decided to award FMVP to Su Feng.

In this way, Su Feng has become the first Chinese player to win this award in the history of high school basketball in the United States ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ In addition, in the 95/96 season, Su Feng averaged 33.5 points and 6.5 per game Rebounds, 1.5 assists, 2.0 steals, and 2.5 blocks were selected as scoring champions in the Pennsylvania High School Basketball League.

And Su Feng was selected to the first lineup of the best team with Kobe.

It is worth mentioning that this year's season MVP is still Kobe, after all, the sewer data is so beautiful ...

In the 95/96 season, Kobe averaged 27.4 points, 12.8 rebounds, 10.2 assists, 3.4 steals, and 3.6 blocks per game. He achieved the season's triple-double achievement and officially became the king of the sewers.

And he also surpassed Wilt Chamberlain with a total high school career score of 2780 points, becoming the highest scorer in basketball history in Pennsylvania.

Cough ...

As a defensive genius, Su Feng also defended the best defensive player in Pennsylvania ...

Su Feng: ORZ.

In the center of the capital gymnasium, enjoying the cheers from the people of Pennsylvania, Su Feng, who wore a state-level champion hat, and Bryant looked at each other.

Well, anyway, the senior year is over.

Now, it's time to move towards the NBA!

PS: Because I think there was a problem when checking the manuscript in this afternoon, at 4:00 in the afternoon, I deleted the original 4000 words and wrote it again. It took a little time. Um, this chapter is 7000 words. After all, high school students skip the university. A quiet needs further explanation and setting, it is not easy to separate, so they are finished together, so that we can announce that we have officially entered the draft plot.
