You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 992 Love at first sight

Korver is a more pure shooter than Redd.

In the Pistons, Reid lacked the opportunity to hold the ball and could not show the versatility of an All-Star offensive player, but Korver was different.

Only the players who are drafted at the end of the second round can still gain a foothold in the league until 2019, needless to say their shooting skills.

Mo Mengchen has read a piece of data. If you only look at the effective field goal percentage of off-ball screens, Korver is more accurate than Curry at his peak (what's the concept? The effective field goal percentage is 66.1% abnormal), but Curry's Off-ball screens have a higher foul rate, which further increases the already high efficiency.

Korver's off-the-ball screen shots are the most frightening to watch-the accuracy is terrible, and the shot is there-his shot is fast, the release point is high, and he can run at high speed and complete a 90° turn in the air after receiving the ball Body shot.

Later, he joined the Cavaliers. Under the one-star four-shot system, there were some confusing cover tactics. When James held the ball, he attracted the opponent's main defensive attention. Korver's off-ball was even more difficult to defend.

Such a pure shooter is more suitable for the Pistons for a long time than Reid in terms of future development.

He doesn't have a super high ceiling, and at the peak of his peak, he may be a deadly shooter close to the All-Star level. As the sixth or seventh man of the Pistons, he can strengthen the firepower of the second team, which is quite impressive.

"His height is very good, and his shooting movements are very standard, and there is no need to modify it at all." Frouses looked at it for a long time, nodded and praised, "He is really an excellent shooter."

At this time, the scout next to him said: "He only has the market at the end of the second round. If you want to get him, you only need a small deal."

"Get him? No need, although his shooting skills are good, but that's all." Mo Mengchen said seriously, "Can you gain a foothold in the league just by shooting? It's too naive."

Frouseth looked beaming, and Mo Mengchen clearly liked Korver, but the reason why he suddenly turned his back on Korver was that he didn't want others to discover his love for Korver.

After all, it had only been a few years since Turkoglu was robbed.

Since Turkoglu was cut off by the Magic, the Pistons can only choose Magloire. Looking at it now, it is also the choice to make a lot of money.

Magloire, a blue-collar insider who was selected as an All-Star at his peak, played as a substitute for the Pistons without any distractions. He played for about 20 minutes per game, with a fierce style and a brave game, just like the talent of Jerome Williams Enhanced version and weakened version.

However, the Pistons only have the fifth pick in the first round, the 29th pick and the 58th pick in the second round this year. If they want to get Korver, they must trade to a higher pick.

After watching the trial training for a long time, Mo Mengchen was determined to win Korver.

Walking out of the court, he went straight to the general manager's office.

In Dumars' office, there are seven O'Brien cups, and he watched them triumphantly for a long time.

Of these seven trophies, three were won by him as a player, and four were won by him as a general manager. It can be said that they are all related to him.

"Please come in."

Dumas said with a smile.

Mo Mengchen walked in and saw Dumas looking at the trophy like a pervert looking at a beautiful woman, and asked directly: "How is the transaction going?"

"I'm talking to Orlando," Dumars said, "but it's not going well."

Outright deal for the second pick?What a great deal.

Mo Mengchen sat down casually and asked, "Why is it not going well?"

Speaking of this, Dumas patted the table unhappily, "That bastard wants us to add Michael, how is this possible?"

"You mean, they want to trade our second pick in the first round for our fifth pick in the first round, and we have to add Michael?" Mo Mengchen asked.

Dumas nodded affirmatively, indicating that he was right: "That's it, do you think they are crazy?"

If Dumars wants to make this deal, he is indeed crazy.

Mo Mengchen said flatly: "Let them go to hell."

If you can't get the second pick, you can get the third pick. Anyway, as long as you get a top three pick, you can guarantee that Jan Guawei will get one of them, and you won't lose anything.

Today is only the first day of the offseason, so even if you want to trade, you have to wait until all the teams have inspected the goods before trading.

If there is any need, whether your draft pick is high or low, you will not know until after the trial training.

The Magic and the Pistons have their own grievances, and it is normal for the opponent to make things difficult for them.

The Pistons, which have won five consecutive championships, are the thorn in the eyes of all teams. As long as any team shows generosity during the transaction and does not let the Pistons suffer, it is a crime against other teams, and the rest of the teams should attack in groups.

Although this detailed rule has not been presented in any written form, it is not difficult to see the attitude of each team towards them through various setbacks in the Pistons trading field in recent years.

If you want to do business with others, it is inevitable to suffer losses and lose money.

At least when trades happen, like Ricky Davis to the Cavaliers.

Davis had already shown the potential of an All-Star at the time, but he didn't have a suitable position in the Pistons, so he had no choice but to trade. The Cavaliers only used one [-]th pick in the first round to replace their core players.

This simply cannot happen with other teams.

Mo Mengchen glanced at the trial training list that Dumars was going to invite, and suddenly found that the Chosen One, who was known as the strongest rookie in the past ten years, didn't check the box.

Don't invite the Chosen One for trial training?
"Why don't you invite LeBron James to our place?" Mo Mengchen asked with a smile.

Hearing him mention this, Dumas became even more angry: "Where is it that I didn't invite him? It's because he doesn't like us at all!"

The five-time Pistons, the most watched NBA team at the moment, the most successful sports club in the United States, a country bumpkin from Akron actually doesn't like it?
"Is it because you have a bad attitude?" No matter what you think, it's Dumas' fault.

This really wronged Dumars. He said aggrievedly: "Do you think I don't want LeBron to try out? We only have the fifth pick in the first round. If LeBron falls to the third pick, it will be considered a big upset. He doesn't like our pick, and he doesn't want to come to the Pistons to play off the bench."

Reasonable thoughts and wishes.

The Pistons are strong and strong, and if James comes, he will have to start from the bench.

There is no way, the five consecutive championship teams are so domineering.

But as soon as he debuted, he rushed to the Pantheon, Michael Jordan's supreme throne, how could he be willing to start as a substitute?

He must go to a place where he can be enshrined as the emperor.

The Pistons aren't that kind of place, so James doesn't want to come anyway.

After listening to Dumas' explanation, Mo Mengchen didn't delve into the details, and looked at the list for a few more times, most of the hot rookies were in it.

The Pistons' eyes this year are not on players outside the lottery zone. They have the fifth pick in the first round and Michael Reed who is ready to shoot.

As long as there are no major problems, Reed can undoubtedly bring the team a second lottery pick. Who is chosen for this lottery pick is a problem.

The 2003 draft had similar problems as the 1996 draft.

As a well-known draft, it is more extreme than in 1996. Super talents are all concentrated in the top five picks, and there are few leftovers in the back position, but there are a lot of good-looking role players.

Therefore, for the second lottery pick, the Pistons will at most choose a capable substitute. As for who to choose, it depends on the results of the trial training.

After talking with Mo Mengchen, Dumas hurriedly left the general manager's office and went to Atlanta to watch a large-scale trial training.

The reason why this trial training has attracted people's attention is that among the people participating in the trial training is the Serbian super talent from Europe-Dako Milicic.

Hearing that Dumas was going to visit this person's trial training, Mo Mengchen tensed up.

According to legend, Dumars, who held the second pick in his previous life, decided to choose Milicic after watching a trial training of Milicic.

Moreover, Dumars claimed that Milicic is definitely the strongest 18-year-old basketball player on the surface. As a result, his love at first sight will be pressed on the bench by Larry Brown after he joined the team. The tragic story of the second place in the list.

Countless people accused Larry Brown, coupled with the subsequent revelations of the Pistons' Five Tigers, which led to the conclusion that Brown's team is the grave of rookies, and Milicic is pitiful.

Is this really the case?Brown is indeed strict and does not give Milicic a chance, but did Milicic spend his nine-year career under Brown?If you really have the ability, you should prove your strength after Brown leaves, instead of becoming the VIP of all the nightclubs in that city within a month every time you arrive in a new city.

Therefore, Mo Mengchen is now very worried that Dumars will fall in love with Milicic again at first sight.

So as soon as he got home, he called Dumars and asked him to call after watching the trial training to share his experience and insights.

If Dumas was really poisoned on the spot, he should prepare serum to help him detoxify.

Taking a million steps back, even if Milicic is really a depressed genius, Mo Mengchen will never let the team choose him if he is not self-disciplined and lacks perseverance.One Eddie Curry is enough for him, another Milicic?He still wants to play for a few more years, so forget it.

Mo Mengchen returned home and took the children around, doing nothing. The days without competitions and trainings are so boring. He still cares about Dumas who is enjoying the talent show in Atlanta, and he is not interested in playing with the children.

Salem was crying bitterly in his arms, but he didn't respond.

Madeira scolded him, saying that he didn't care, and he even said that crying more is good for the child.

Mo Mengchen waited with anxiety.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Dumars, after watching the trial training, excitedly made a phone call. Milicic's wonderful performance made him want to agree to the Magic's proposal to trade the fifth pick in the first round + Reid for the second pick.
