NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 36 The Troubles of the Trailblazers
After a brief courtesy, the process of leaving finally began.

However, in order to maintain confidentiality, the management of the Blazers specially waited until the players who were on trial training were over and took them to another venue before letting Wang Zelin conduct trial training alone.

"Let me see what you are capable of."

Lillard, who had already been promised the sixth pick by the Blazers and was vaguely regarded as his own by the team's management, was able to stay and watch the trial process.

The first project to be carried out is the measurement of the players' physical data, including the measurement of bare foot height, height of the wingspan with shoes, palm size and other aspects.

This project is relatively easy, Wang Zelin just needs to pose as required, and then let the female recorder in front of him play with it.

Soon, the first project results came out.

裸身高216cm、穿鞋高220cm、臂展231cm、站立摸高287cm、体重130kg、体脂比8.7%……

God, are you sure this guy in front of me isn't Shaquille O'Neal?

Terry Stotts and his teaching assistants looked at the report in front of them, lost in thought.

For basketball players, both inside and outside players, the wingspan is extremely important.

Take this year's No. 2 pick Anthony Davis as an example. His wingspan is 27cm, while Wang Zelin's wingspan actually surpasses him.

However, Anthony Davis is 8cm shorter than Wang Zelin, which highlights his outstanding talent.

But don't forget that the athlete in front of him is Asian.

Let me first state that this is by no means racist but a real fact. Generally speaking, the wingspan of yellow people is shorter than that of black and white people.

Yao Ming, No. 1 in the Chinese men's basketball team and the former No. 229 center in the Western Conference of the NBA, is a typical short-handed monster, with a height of 221cm but a wingspan of [-]cm.

From Wang Zelin's amazing wingspan, the Blazers management can believe that he has a huge defensive talent.

Relying on this physical quality alone, and through the practice of the day after tomorrow, Wang Zelin's defensive ability will definitely be improved.

It seems that the defensive shortcomings in the scouting report can be crossed out.

Then, it's time to test your running and jumping ability.

The 12m time is 85, the vertical jump is 64cm, the run-up jump is 70cm...

This time, Wang Zelin's talent is far less amazing than the first project.

However, in the eyes of Torrists and others, it would appear to be much more normal.

After all, it can't even be comparable to a shark's athletic ability because its body shape is more like a juvenile shark.

You must know that the big shark at his peak was the man who dominated the league. His running and jumping ability was no less than his static talent.

Still, such talent is surprising enough in an Asian-American athlete.

Generally, a big center with a height of more than 2 meters is difficult to have such a high bounce and speed. Otherwise, there will be no defenders in the basketball game, and it is enough to play with 10 long people.

Wang Zelin's 70cm run-up bounce is already quite good in the center position.

Moreover, the 12 85-meter time is not too slow for a big center. Compared with Yao Ming's 14-second [-]-meter score, how could Wang Zelin fall for a slow evaluation?

It seems that the professionalism of the previous scout needs to be considered.

Terry Stotts shook his head disapprovingly.

This time, the Blazers management directly threw this unreliable scouting report aside.

"Wow, King's physical talent is probably much stronger than Yao and Yi at the beginning. This is just crazy!" Nell Olsey, the general manager of the team who was silently observing for a long time, faintly felt that the team wanted to earned.

The talent shown by the young man in front of him is enough to hit the top five or even the top three draft picks in such a young draft year.

Apart from Anthony Davis, he doesn't think there is anyone in this class whose physical talent is comparable to that of Wang Zelin in front of him.

No, I have to report Paul quickly, we must keep this big man, he is very likely to be an important hope for the rise of the team.

Just when the management of the Blazers was caught up in the boundless imagination of the future, Wang Zelin's trial training has reached the final bench press project.

"King, now you are going to perform the standard weight 185-pound bench press for NBA rookies. Do you need to rest for a while?" The female recorder in charge of recording the data asked softly.

"No need, keep going!"

Wang Zelin shook his head and refused to rest.

He also wants to know now, how far the lower body strength of 92 and the upper body strength of 88 can make his bench press reach.

Yes, it has been more than nine months since the twilight O'Neal was drawn, and Wang Zelin has finally completely inherited all the abilities of this purple diamond superstar card.

Strength is definitely the core attribute of an inside player, there is no such thing as one.

Now, he can't wait to know where the upper limit of his power is.

"Zelin, come on!"

Zhou Yang, who had been watching the changes in the management of the Blazers, was already very excited.

It seems that Zelin's talent has made the Blazers very excited, and if they work hard, maybe the 11th pick in the first round will be his.

"rest assured!"

Wang Zelin replied with an OK gesture.

"1"

"2"

"3"

"4"

"5!"

The voice of the recorder reporting the number gradually increased as Wang Zelin bench presses one after another.

Nell Olsey and Coach Terry Stotts, who were watching around, suddenly looked at each other, and a voice sounded in their hearts at the same time.

Never let this young man leave Portland like this!
When the recorder counted to 17, the audience who witnessed this scene with their own eyes cried out in their hearts, "Unbelievable!"

In the end, Wang Zelin's 185-pound (84 kg) bench press was fixed at 23.

In the 2012 draft player physical test rankings, Wang Zelin achieved the first height, the first standing touch, the first bench press, and the first palm size.

Looking at this talented young man in front of him, Nell Olsey suddenly had an urge to take him with the sixth pick.

But he thought of Damien Lillard, who had just finished his trial training before Wang Zelin's arrival.

As a rare but senior rookie in today's impetuous league, Lillard is very much like his predecessors Tim Duncan and Brandon Roy. He can almost be said to be seamless and adaptable in the NBA. And the combat power is extremely amazing.

Among the players in this draft, Lillard, who is 188 in the nude and 191 in the shoes, is also quite talented.

臂展2米02cm、站立摸高242cm、体重84kg、体脂5.9%。

In addition, he also has a very dazzling 84cm in-situ jump, ranking second among the players in the draft; the maximum jump is 100cm, ranking seventh; 13 times of 185-pound bench press, ranking second among guards name.

The most important thing is that in Lillard, the management of the Blazers saw the shadow of Roy back then.

Young and old!

big heart!
Strong desire to win!

Senior year graduates!
This series of labels are all reminiscent of Brandon Roy, the second point guard in the West.

Therefore, after Lillard's trial, the Blazers management has basically made up their minds to sign the young guard with the sixth overall pick.

But now, a Wang Zelin has been killed, making the already settled result suspense again.

The Trail Blazers have two first-round picks this season: sixth and No.11.

The original plan was to sign Lillard with the sixth pick, and then use the eleventh pick to sign a defensive power center, so that the team boss Aldridge's offensive firepower can be completely released.

Aldridge has complained more than once: He really doesn't want to be pushed to the [-] again.

Now there are players who can make up for the shortcomings of the team's inner fifth position, but they seem to be better than they thought.

The talents displayed by Lillard and Wang Zelin are making the Blazers management feel particularly distressed right now.

If it is the later small ball era, the Blazers will naturally choose Lillard to strengthen the outside line without hesitation under the premise of having Aldridge, but the problem is that the center has not yet experienced a fundamental decline in status. Not completely reduced to a tool man.

Today, there are still many teams who have gone to great lengths to find an excellent young center as the cornerstone of their team building.

"That... In my opinion, it's better to divide King and Damien into two teams, arrange a confrontation training, and then take a look at their actual combat ability."

David Vanderpool, who had been a younger brother for a long time, quietly raised his right hand and put forward his own suggestion.

"What do you think...how about it?"

When everyone's attention reached David Vanderpool, the young assistant was a little flustered.

"Good idea, just follow your arrangement."

General Manager Olsey came over and patted Vanderpool on the shoulder, his eyes full of appreciation.

　In the first few chapters, many book friends asked: Why not let the protagonist go to the Warriors to squeeze Bo Gte away, obviously the protagonist has the ability to get on the aircraft carrier of the Warriors and embark on the road to win!

　　I also want to ask about this: If the Shaq Shaquille O'Neal, who once dominated the basket, was brought back to the 15-16 season, and then he joined the Warriors who created the prosperous era of the small ball, no one would really think that the style of the painting is a bit too that. what?
