Basketball K God

Chapter 23 7-member draft group

At 4:10 am on April 9th, in downtown Lawrence, all members of this year's NCAA championship team, the Jayhawks of the University of Kansas, were riding several floats for a championship parade celebration.

The NCAA championship parade celebration is not as large as the NBA championship parade, but for Lawrence, a small city, this kind of scene still makes this peaceful city lively.

On the float, the Kansas generals held the NCAA championship trophy and interacted with the citizens on both sides of the street.Xie Kai was also on the float, feeling the cheers of the citizens, the excitement in his heart was beyond words.At this time, it really makes people feel that the hard work and dedication in the past are worthwhile.

Xie Kai, who won the MOP, was warmly welcomed by the citizens, and some people called him "God K", his new nickname.You must know that since someone shouted this title in the finals a few days ago, this title has instantly become one of the topics discussed by fans on online forums. Everyone agrees that this title is very suitable for Xie Kai. It is a talent.

On the same day, there was another big news: According to ESPN website reports, the first-year talented guard OJ Mayo of the University of Southern California will announce his participation in this year's NBA draft.A spokesman for the school said Mayo will select a suitable agent in the near future.

Mayo is the NCAA's super perimeter scorer. In the NCAA league, he averaged 20.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, helping the team achieve a record of 21 wins and 12 losses.

Although Mayo's USC lost to Kansas State University in the first round of the NCAA tournament, considering his personal strength and future development potential, he, like Eric Gordon who has announced his participation in the draft, is firmly in the top 10. There are supernovas who are even expected to enter the top 5.

Xie Kai was not surprised that Mayo participated in the draft.Since the league restricted high school students from directly entering the NBA, those high school basketball talents often choose to play in the NCAA for one year in college and then participate in the draft.For these geniuses, going to the NBA earlier means that they can get a big contract earlier. After all, playing in the NCAA does not have a multi-million-dollar contract, nor can they get a huge amount of endorsement fees.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, why not people?

A few days later, the celebration of the University of Kansas' championship finally came to an end, and the lives of the winning members gradually returned to peace.But soon, all the Jayhawks collectively announced that they would participate in the NBA Draft in June!

This is almost a blockbuster in the media world, because although many talents from NCAA schools have announced their candidacy one after another, Kansas, the championship team, has not moved at all.But what I didn't expect was that their silence was not because there were no players participating in the draft, but because they were holding back their big moves.

This is the largest number of candidates in a team this year, and the number has reached 7!And according to NBAdraft.net's mock draft list, these seven players have all been on the list.Like Arthur and Rush, they are regulars in the first round.

The University of Kansas is on the verge of winning the championship, and all its officers and men announced their participation in the draft, which instantly became an important topic online and offline.This team has no superstars, no top-10 projected talent, but it's the numbers.

As a new MOP, Xie Kai's participation in the draft is not surprising.But judging from the latest NBAdraft.net mock draft list and the mock draft list given by ESPN, with his miraculous performance in the NCAA Finals, it seems that there is no big problem for him to be selected. The problem lies in the draft order.The predictions given by many media are that he is most likely to be selected in the second round with a total of 30-50 picks.The probability of entering the first round is the same as the probability of falling to the end of the second round.

Even if he won the MOP, Xie Kai's draft market is not so bullish that he can enter the first round or even the lottery. With super potential to break through racial restrictions, such a player, as a lottery, may not have a high probability of winning.

MOP is not the FMVP of the NBA, there is still a gap between the two.Players who win FMVP need to perform well in one series, while players who win MOP only need one game.This increases chance, so that little-known role players like Xie Kai hope to win this trophy through the "explosion" of a game.

The scouts of NBA teams are very professional, and the major sports media are also very professional in general, so Xie Kai won't be put in the lottery just because he won the MOP.

Xie Kai has been busy with various celebrations during this time, and there are very few opportunities for training.Lying in bed the night he declared for the draft, he contemplated his future.

Now that he has announced his participation in the draft, it basically means that he can only move forward and cannot retreat.I can't think about going back to school to play NCAA or something. I have to face the adult world sooner or later, so I have to prepare early so that I won't be disgusted by the pre-draft tryout.

Thank you for the 3 treasures given to him by the basketball god. These 3 treasures should come in handy.The first treasure is not available for the time being, and it will be useful when you are selected. It is conditional; the second treasure, you can use it now, but wait for a while, first look at the third treasure, and see if you need to improve what capabilities.

Xie Kai opened the personal ability quantification form attentively, and found that his four major ability values ​​of "offensive ability", "defensive ability", "physical quality" and "spiritual quality" have not changed in any way.But this is also normal. I have been doing it for so many days because of the celebration of winning the championship. It is already very good that these values ​​​​can not drop.

Xie Kai found out that among the 4 abilities of his own, only the last "spiritual quality" is more than 60 points.He opened this ability value and checked the scores of the sub-items below.

Mental quality: 71
1. Concentration: 60
2. Compression resistance: 65
3. Competitiveness: 99
4. Hunger: 99
5. Willpower: 77
6. Emotional control: 67
7. Endurance: 66
8. Self-confidence: 60
9. Effort: 99
10. Aura: 20
The first item is concentration, 1 points are less than the average score, which is considered low.Xie Kai thinks this score is very reasonable, and he is indeed sometimes scolded by Coach Self on the court for lack of concentration.This problem exists not only in training, but also in learning and life.

Item 3, Item 4, and Item 9 all scored 99 points. He knew that the full score was 100 points, so 99 points was close to the full score.I am indeed impeccable in terms of competitiveness, hunger for victory, and hard work.No one loves basketball more than myself, basketball is life, no, it is more important than life!

Xie Kai only scored 20 points in the last item, "Aura". Xie Kai didn't think it was difficult to understand. He had never played as a starter for the University of Kansas Jayhawks, and he didn't have the aura that a strong player should have. This is normal.He thought that as long as his strength grew in the future, this value would definitely increase.
