NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 36 Good Times

In today's post-match interview session, what Chen Xiao saw was not the familiar graceful figure, but a Caucasian man with a bald head and only two sides of his hair.

"Chen, it's not an interview with a beautiful reporter, which disappoints you?" Looking at Chen Xiao who was a little surprised, Little Van Gundy joked.

"Nice to meet you, Coach Van Gundy. I saw you on TV before, but now I see you in real life. I just didn't expect you to come for the interview." After Chen Xiao said hello, the two officially started the interview.

"First of all, congratulations to you and Duke for successfully entering the Final Four. Duke entered the Final Four and won the championship the year before last. Can you replicate this result this year?" Van Gundy Jr. got straight to the point and asked.

"Of course, from Game [-] onwards, our goal was to win the title and give Duke a fifth national title.

We are now only two steps away from accomplishing our goal.My teammates, coaches and I are very confident in bringing the championship back to Durham. "

Chen Xiao didn't say something like that the basketball is round. After all, the strength is here, and the round basketball will be firmly controlled by Chen Xiao's big hands.

"Very good, Chen. Let's talk about your personal performance. You only missed two goals, 38 points, 17 rebounds and 9 blocks. After watching this game, I have become your fan." Little Van Gundy praised.

"Thank you. I'm just looking for the best shot and trying to put the ball in the basket. The same goes for rebounding and blocking. I just try to defend as hard as I can."

After the routine questions, it is natural to come to the topic that the audience in front of the TV is most concerned about.

"Chen, I believe you should know about the video that went viral on Instagram last night. Is the person in the video you?" Little Van Gundy asked directly without detours.

"It's me, it's not a big deal, it's just a one-on-one match." As the winner, Chen Xiao felt that there was no need to say more, and he had nothing to brag about, and he didn't want to advance the consequences.

"Okay, when will you announce your participation in the draft? Chen. We all know that you are destined to only play in the NCAA for one year." Seeing Chen Xiao's reluctance to talk, Jr. Van Gundy changed a topic that fans were interested in.

"Haha, thank you for your compliment. I have to focus on what's in front of me first, and I'll have an answer when everything settles."

……

Chen Xiao, who was being interviewed, felt that the atmosphere was not right as soon as he stepped into the door of the locker room. The locker room, which is supposed to be noisy and noisy, was actually quiet, as if something was gaining momentum.

Sure enough, a water-splashing battle broke out after Chen Xiao stepped into the locker room with his left foot.

Chen Xiao, who was tallest, tallest and contributed the most, naturally received the most care.

After a while of fighting, it is equivalent to taking a bath in advance.Chen Xiao really didn't know where they got these water splashing equipment.

"Hey, it's just the top four, we haven't won the championship yet." Chen Xiao said helplessly.

"The champion of the Southern District is also a champion, Chen. This is our third championship this year, and we are only short of the last one." Seth Curry responded excitedly.

Entering the semi-finals means the greatest exposure, which is the best booster for players who were originally unknown and ordinary.

And with the frequent pick-and-roll cooperation between Curry and Chen Xiao in these few games, Curry, whose data performance has increased, has entered the second round of the draft predictions. Although it is only the second round, this is a huge difference from the first half of the year when he was not ranked at all.

If Curry has a stable performance in the Final Four, he might be able to enter the NBA this year.

Aiming at one side, Austin Rivers is also smiling.

Even for Rivers, the No. [-] high school student in the United States who has a good father and a high-ranked player with high exposure, the Final Four is also the best opportunity to prove that he can perform on the big stage and make a sprint for the final pick.

This season, because Chen Xiao occupies an absolute core position in Duke, he has a very high round share and a large number of shots.

Rivers' data is actually not that good-looking, and it is far from the data of nearly 30 points per game in high school.

Especially in the middle of the season, for a period of time, Rivers lost his mentality and made random shots, and was punished by the old K in the team. His pick fell from the top 10 before the season to the edge of the lottery.

However, since Crazy Three, Rivers, who is willing to assist and has become more and more mature, has caused some draft experts to change their evaluations of "relatively selfish and too sticky to the ball", "sometimes like to force shots to score, and there are problems with shot selection" and "narrow vision".

The extremely strong breakthrough ability and excellent scoring ability will not disappear after a short period of poor performance. Rivers, whose shortcomings have improved, has bottomed out and rebounded from the originally weak market.

The draft market also rose back to the previous top 10.

The semi-finals will be a good opportunity for him to hit the top 5 picks.

"By the way, Chen, you are even more popular now, and there are many posts discussing you on reddit." Cook, a young surfer, came to share his knowledge with Chen Xiao while celebrating.

Chen Xiao took a look and saw several posts:
"There were Eagles players there, the white guy in the first video should be Pachulia or Radmanovic"

"Man, you should check your eyes, such an obvious big head, it's not Pachulia, I won't look at Crazy Three again"

"However, it's just two rounds of matchups, so I can't fully see Chen's strength."

"Don't talk about strength or not, Chen's dunk is imaginative, maybe he should be allowed to participate in the dunk contest"

"Are you serious? Putting a 2-meter-2 guy in the dunk contest?"

Seeing Chen Xiao watching, Cook continued: "They are still arguing about what statistics you can get in the first year of the NBA with your current strength, and whether you can get two Za coins. Yao didn't do it in the first year."

"Za coin? It can't be a unit of measurement like 1 Pi." Chen Xiao only knew Zhan Coin and 1 Pi, but didn't know what Za Coin was.

"EP? Are you talking about a record?" Now, Cook, a veteran surfer, has never heard of what an EP is.

Chen Xiao had no choice but to explain that Pippen earned 7 million in 2000 years, 300 in a year, and so on.

Knowing the origin of 1 Pi, Cook is like a treasure. Seeing his posture, he can't wait to spread black information about Pi Erye on the Internet.

Regardless of him, Chen Xiao understood after searching by himself.

1Za is 8 points, and Pachulia's current scoring data and rebounding data are both 8 points.

2Za=16 points.

Chen Xiao thought to himself that scoring 16 points in the first year should not be a problem.

It is 3Za, 24 points is a bit difficult.

Looking at this year's scoring list, in 2012, players in the league currently averaging more than 24 points per game can be counted on one hand.

Scrolling down, I found that there are actually less than 16 players who can score 40 points this year.

And the champion in 2011, his senior, Kyrie Irving currently has 18 points in his rookie year.

The highest points of other rookies are only 13 points, Klay Thompson 1.5Za, Kawhi Leonard 1Za.

Rounding out the top three is Dukojan.

The highest score is 28 points, and the data has not yet inflated.

This is really a wonderful era, Chen Xiao thought to himself.
