Chapter 161 Favoritism?

Originally based on Wang Xiaochun's current status in the Knicks.And the progress shown in the Olympics.

It is unlikely that he will be allowed to play in summer league.

It is estimated that it is too late for the Knicks to protect.

How could this guy be allowed to play such a meaningless game.

But the problem is that the Knicks really can't find a suitable candidate now.

But it is impossible for a team without its own players to represent its own team in the summer league.

So this is the way to go.

Someone may have to ask.

Wang Xiaochun is a starter at any rate.If no one is available, send a replacement.Is there no one on the bench?
In fact, there is really no one available on the bench.

Let's take a look at the Knicks' existing players this season.

2 point guards:
Marbury, Charlie Ward
2 shooting guards:
Alan Houston, Hardaway.

2 small forwards:
Keith Van Horn, Shanton Anderson,
2 power forwards.

Wang Xiaochun, Tim Thomas.

Center 2 people.

Eric Dampier, Joel Przybilla.

It can be seen from the list of players in the lineup.

The Knicks are in every position right now.

They are all standard configurations, one main force and one substitute.

Not even an emergency player.

If you play the game with this lineup.In case one of the players in that position is injured.The remaining one is estimated to play the whole game.

It is precisely because of such a lack of people.So the Knicks attach great importance to this summer league.

It is estimated that I want to scrape together a few to deal with emergencies.

Of course, these are all later things.

Let me finish first, why did you let Wang Xiaochun lead the team to play in the summer league?
It can also be seen from the list above.The Knicks really have no choice.

Except for the main force.

Charlie Ward?The defender of the Knicks.A veteran player who has played in the Knicks for several seasons.Playing summer league is not appropriate.

Hardaway?Old All-Star!Who dares to say that he is suitable?
Shanton Anderson?Same situation as Charlie Ward, also inappropriate.

Tim Thomas?Although it was just traded to the Knicks last season.But he is not only an old player, but also a starter before.Playing Wang Xiaochun as a substitute is probably enough of a grievance.If you still let people play in the summer league.That was simply an insult.So it doesn't work either.

Joel Przybilla?From qualifications to ability, it is barely suitable.But the problem is that this girl actually injured herself during the offseason...

Although it is not too serious and has returned to the team now, I can only do some simple training.

If this is the case, let people play such meaningless games?What if there is another injury?Eric Dampier is the only one left at center.So he can't go either.

So do the math.

Then only Wang Xiaochun in the starting lineup is suitable.

Of course, the Knicks let Wang Xiaochun play in the summer league, not just for this reason.

Taking Wang Xiaochun's evaluation as the criterion for selecting players this time is not a polite word.

It has been said before.

Wang Xiaochun has shown his progress in the Olympic Games.

In addition, his ability to lead the team has also been affirmed.

According to the previous strength of the Chinese national team.

Even with the presence of Yao Ming.

In the Olympics, it is estimated that he can only reach the top 8 position.

The chances of winning a medal are very slim.

But with Wang Xiaochun joining.

Olympic men's basketball runner-up.That said it all.

Therefore, as a player trained by the Knicks, Wang Xiaochun is qualified to put forward his own selection opinions.You can also use this grass-table team to practice for a certain "position" in the future.

.........

He had no choice but to be ordered in danger, and Wang Xiaochun had nothing to say.

Adding this guy still has a little aftertaste... the feeling of training people during the Olympics....

So there was no nonsense, and he took office immediately.

But when this guy got it from the assistant coach, after the team prepared the list of players for him this time.

The face is a little green.

"What do the scouts of our team do? Can this selection be passed through the brain? Even if it's perfunctory, give me a reasonable match for the team? See what players are selected for me?"

Since he wants to lead the team out.Then the basic details of the players in his team.At least Wang Xiaochun needs to know about the same.

But after he read these player profiles.

I think the staff who choose the players are absolutely perfunctory.

Why do you say that?Look at the information.I understand.

"Genni Lopago? Point guard, 1 meters tall, 85 kilograms in weight, undrafted in 84? He stayed with the Lakers for one season in the same year. Then he was waived. He wandered for a year and came to us this year. Look for opportunities?

Amy Uduka, a positional shooting guard, is 1 meters tall and weighs 85 kilograms. He was selected by the NBDL's Charleston Lowgators with the 100th overall pick in 2002? NBDL?Not from the draft?That's okay too?

马特巴恩斯?位置小前锋,身高2米01,体重102公斤,在2002年次轮第46顺位被孟菲斯灰熊队选中,随后被交易到克里夫兰骑士队。赛季开始前就被骑士队裁掉。2003年9月又以自由球员身份和西雅图超音速队签约,不到20天又被超音速队裁掉。2004年初和洛杉矶快船队签约。代表快船队出战38场常规赛比赛,场均得到4.5分、4个篮板。赛季结束后还是被裁?这老兄到底是多招人烦呀?怎么到哪被嘛裁?
Trevor Ariza?He is 2 meters tall and weighs 03 kilograms. In the 95 NBA draft, he was selected by the New York Knicks at the 2004th place in the second round?Oh, this is the player we picked ourselves?Good height, but too light weight!
Jamario Moon?Position small forward, why is it a small forward?How many is this?Or is it a non-draft background, with a height of 2 meters and a weight of 03 kg, what are the characteristics?Dunk better?

This is used to recharge, right?The latter two should also be the same.

Britten Johansen?He is 2 meters tall and weighs 08 kilograms. He is an undrafted player.Are you sure he can play in the NBA at this weight?
John Edwards?He is 2 meters tall and weighs 13 kilograms.This weight is fine.But why doesn't he have any game data? "

After all, after a season of baptism.

Wang Xiaochun has made great progress in his cognition of players.

The players on these lists are available.

Either it's a mess and it's no longer possible to fight.Or you haven't played for a long time.And it's not an orthodox player at all.There is not even a game experience in the data.

In addition, from the perspective of position, this is obviously a combination of outside lines and inside lines.

So Wang Xiaochun thinks.Guys who pick these players.Work is extremely irresponsible.

"Actually, these outside guys are pretty good, but they just haven't gotten the right opportunity? As for high-quality inside players? Let alone our team? Are other teams also lacking? It's not easy to find these two. ...."

Accompanying Wang Xiaochun to read the files was the assistant coach of the team.

That is, the Ilse Warren who led Wang Xiaochun to the summer league last season.

After all, Wang Xiaochun is just the team leader on the court.

The arrangements for playing in the summer league still require a professional team leader.

Ilse Warren is undoubtedly the candidate.

But it could also be heard from the way Ilse Warren spoke.

As Wang Xiaochun's strength continued to grow.The status of the team is gradually raised.

Ilse Warren no longer dares to talk to Wang Xiaochun like he used to train rookies...

"No, this roster is too unreasonable, just two insiders? Or are they filling in? How long do I have to play? I don't believe it! There are so many players who want to enter the league? I can't choose a few decent insiders. ?”

Is it not just Ilse Warren who changed his attitude?The way Wang Xiaochun speaks now, there is no shadow of that rookie back then.

You can tell your assistant coach bluntly.In the summer league, he was going to cheat and play tricks...

"But I'm going to play in the summer league the day after tomorrow? How can I find a suitable candidate now? Even if there is, it is estimated that other teams have already asked to leave?"

Because Wang Xiaochun returned to the team relatively late.

The candidates for the summer league have already been decided.

It is impossible to have any alternative personnel.

But Wang Xiaochun just didn't believe in this evil.

"I'm going to look through the information! I have to try!"

Players who participate in the summer league generally adopt an invitation system.

However, there are not a few people who hand over "famous posts".

Every team during the offseason.Will receive a large number of self-recommended personnel information.

Just stuff like this.Probably because there are too many.In addition, no scouts have observed it.

Almost 99% of them are passed once.

However, the passed data cannot be discarded immediately.It will be archived for a short time.

This is what Wang Xiaochun wants to see.

There are a lot of materials, and it is impossible for Wang Xiaochun to read every one of them carefully.

He only pays attention to two aspects.

Since he is an inside player, he first looks at height, and secondly, he looks at weight.

Only these two items meet their own standards.

He will only look at the other party's detailed information.

"This won't work. I have height but no weight. This doesn't work either. I have weight but no height? Let me go. This 1 meter still wants to play a center forward? This? This is not bad. He is 9 meters tall and weighs 2 kilograms? The information is still so thick ? Let me see who this is? Damn, it's Pug? He actually passed the information to Nix, why didn't he tell me? Are those staff blind? How dare they leave my Pug's information aside? "

Wang Xiaochun never thought of it anyway.

He looked through the materials for a long time, and he almost lost his patience.

In the end, Battelle's information was actually found.

"Is this old brother really? Is it embarrassing or can't handle it? This has been laid off? Don't tell my brother? The same is true for handing over information to Nix? This is too alien to me!"

After Wang Xiaochun carefully read Battelle's information.That's how I know.

As early as the beginning of the year, Battelle was exchanged by the Toronto Raptors to the Orlando Magic, and was abandoned by the Orlando Magic within a few days!

After that, the right team has not been found.

So as early as half a year ago, Battelle was no longer an NBA player.

This made Wang Xiaochun feel a little bit guilty.

"After training for so long, I haven't asked this brother how he is doing in the NBA? It's too inappropriate!"

For Battelle's strength, Wang Xiaochun still quite recognized it.At least on defense.Battelle definitely has NBA-level strength.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful he is, it's only his approval.What can other teams do without him?
But since other teams don't use it, he agrees.

What else do I need to say next?

Make a call first...

At least Wang Xiaochun had to make sure whether Bateer was still "vacant"?
"Oh, this...it was voted by my agent! I only found out after the fact! Hey...my brother is embarrassing to our people! After a few years in the league, he ended up like this!"

"Don't say these things are useless? Just tell me where you are now, is there any team that wants you, if not! Book a ticket now! Get me to the Knicks before tomorrow afternoon! Tell me first Let’s talk about the summer league! As for the future, I dare not guarantee the contract, but I can still get a short contract of 10 days!”

As the saying goes, fat water does not flow into the field of outsiders....

Of course, this is not to say that Wang Xiaochun wants to play favoritism for personal gain.... ...Even if he is doing favoritism for personal gain.That is also within a reasonable range.

Didn't I say it before?

Joel Przybilla is still injured.Even without injury.A backup center is also what the Knicks need.

Help your fellow countrymen when you can.Wang Xiaochun felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

"Thank you, brother! I will definitely arrive before tomorrow afternoon!"

This is what Wang Xiaochun said.As a Mongolian man.Battelle can't be too hypocritical.

What's more, he is indeed in a situation where he can play without the ball.How could it be possible to really hold on.

After agreeing, the two ended the call.

"After solving the problem of a center, we have to find another power forward, and then turn over!"

The insider Wang Xiaochun didn't plan to look for more.

One center and one power forward are enough.

Turned over for a while.

Wang Xiaochun finally found a satisfactory one.

"Obina Aikeqi? He is 2 meters tall and weighs 06 kilograms. He was selected by the Grizzlies with the 122th overall pick in the second round of 1999. He stayed in the Wizards Mavericks and Lakers for two years, and has been off the ball since then. Can play. Sigh, another master who is disliked everywhere...! According to the data, this guy has a high golf IQ! Forget it! It's you!"

The personnel thing is finally done.Wang Xiaochun also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it is the first time leading a team.He also wants to bring back good results.

So in order to be foolproof.

He glanced again.This time it is a league team in the same region as the Knicks.

The Knicks are participating in the Southern California Summer League this time, with a total of 9 teams participating.

They are the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Mavericks II, Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks, Memphis Grizzlies, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaochun suddenly remembered.

"After the Olympics, I seem to have heard Liu Wei mention that he is going to represent the Kings in this year's summer league? I wonder if I can meet him this time? What if the Kings don't want him after the league? Did he get the Knicks too?"

 Mark it.According to NBA practice, the summer league is generally held in mid-July every year.But because of the need of the plot.The author blurred this time.I hope you don't mind.
