I'm king in the basket

Chapter 413
It's a long, long list.

According to the most urgent needs of the Raptors, Jean Nou first ruled out the second position.

Then there's the center forward.

Then exclude them one by one according to their style, and finally make a detailed list.

Not to mention how powerful these people are, as far as their style is concerned, they just meet the needs of the Raptors.

Li Xing took the list from Rang Nuo, turned on the computer, and began to search the information of these people on the Internet.

For him, the most time-consuming and labor-intensive thing is typing the names of these people with the keyboard.

He just wanted pictures of these people and looked at their attributes with an all-seeing eye.

Even after Zan Nuo's screening, there are still quite a few players with low energy and low potential.

As long as the potential is lower than B-, Li Xing will skip it.

Although they only have one second-round pick, with his eyes, they can definitely find players with amazing potential among this large number of guards and forwards.

I don't know if I don't look at it, but I really found someone after looking at it.

B-level potential, 198 cm swingman.

Will Barton.

He's more impactful than Matt Barnes and more futuristic than Pondexter.

All aspects of the attributes, this is a pretty good player.

Picking him in the second round is definitely a profitable business.

Li Xing struggled for a while, and continued to look down.

"I don't know how you make that judgment?"

When Rang Nuo saw that Li Xing took out Will Barton's information alone, he knew that this person was spotted.

But in his opinion, there is no obvious difference between Barton and others.

Li Xing searched for this person's private chat on the Internet and only took a cursory glance.

No, it's more sloppy than a hasty glance.

It seemed that he just saw Barton's photo and fell in love with it.

If Jeannot hadn't been extremely sure and affirmed that this person had no other special hobbies, he would really have made some philosophical assumptions.

"What are you looking at?"

Jeannot asked.

"What are you looking at? That's a good question. I'm looking at their photos." Li Xing said truthfully.

Sure enough, I was looking at the photo.

Jeannot had other ideas.

Maybe Li Xing is not gay, so why does he want to see the photos?Could it be that he is the president of the Appearance Association?Entering the Raptors depends on appearance or what?
If the Raptors depend on appearance, Reggie Evans, an all-star in the wretched stream, should have been cut, right?

It's no wonder that Rang Nuo has so many creative thoughts, it's really that Li Xing's approach is so weird.

Li Xing also didn't want to be too weird, after all, it was incomprehensible for someone like Rang Nuo to judge whether a player was good or bad just by looking at the photo.

"What can you tell from the photograph?" Jeannot asked.

"Good question."

"Do you know faces?"

Since you want to fool, you have to completely fool, no matter how awesome you are.

The more fucking awesome you are, the more people will believe you.

face?

If someone suddenly told him that you can tell whether someone has real talents by their looks, Jeannot might take him for an idiot.

However, Li Xing's vision has been tested, not just talking.

From Rang Nuo himself, to his discernment of talents in the past two years, Rang Nuo had to believe that there might really be a kind of human-observation technique that cannot be explained by science in this world.

He suddenly had a strong curiosity about it.

"Is there a way to get started?" asked Jeannot.

"No."

Li Xing didn't understand facial expressions at all, and it was even more impossible for him to teach Rang Nuo some shit about facial expressions.

He searched one by one, and finally, a name came into his vision.

Khris Middleton.

Li Xing felt as if he had heard this name before, but couldn't remember it.

What is certain is that this person must have established a foothold in the NBA and has a wonderful performance, otherwise he would not be able to hear his name as a blind player.

He read the scouting report first.

Strengths: Creative mid-range scorer, good at finding defensive holes with the ball, or making mid-range jumpers.Willing to share the ball during the game.

Disadvantages: Obsessed with mid-range shooting, lacks explosiveness and aggression, defensive focus and skills are a little flat.

Defense has never been a problem for the Raptors, what they need is a wing with scoring ability.

It was obvious that Middleton was a good fit.

Judging from the scouting report, he is a perfect fit for the Raptors.

But Li Xing still had to look at his "face".

Li Xing searched his name online.

As soon as the name was entered, Li Xing clicked on the profile, and his photo came into Li Xing's field of vision.

After Li Xing opened his all-seeing eyes, his excited hands trembled.

A- potential.

tenacious character.

Perseverance.

Li Xing looked at the series and found that Middleton is a player who can definitely shoot as long as he is given a chance.

He was shaking with excitement, and Will Barton had been forgotten by him.

A- rating, and, judging from Middleton's character and mental attributes, he will definitely be able to reach the upper limit.

In other words, the Raptors only need to use a second-round pick to select a superstar who will surely reach a score of 90 in the future.

Li Xing jumped up and down excitedly.

Jean Nuo couldn't help but take Middleton's information over to read. He didn't see anything, and he didn't know why Li Xing was so excited.

"Is there anything about him that attracts you?" asked Jeannot.

"Trust me, he's going to be a superstar!"

Li Xing said excitedly.

"Superstar?"

Rang Nuo's expression changed a little. Have superstars become so worthless these days?

If someone else said this, Jean Nuo would dismiss it.

But the person who said this was Li Xing, and his vision has been confirmed many times.

Among other things, from the moment when Li Xing caught him and included him in the think tank, he felt that this big guy with a simple mind and well-developed limbs was really good at seeing people.

That feeling became a reality later, whether it was his personal team or the suggestions he gave to the team, it proved that the people he valued could not be wrong.

The only suggestion so far that hasn't lived up to expectations is Hassan Whiteside.

But Whiteside proved that he has considerable potential, but he doesn't work hard.

No one would question Li Xing because of this incident. Who would have thought that Whiteside would be so negative?
There were still some lists in hand, and Li Xing didn't check any further.

He has already found his favorite target, so he doesn't need to look any further.

Although he especially hopes that "all the talents in the world will be included in my roster", he can only make a roster of 15 players each season, only 5 players can start each game, and 10 players can rotate. It will delay the development of these people.

Middleton and Button, this is his answer to the coaching staff and management.

That night, he sent the information about the two to Triano.

Triano was eating at the time, he didn't expect Li Xing to be so efficient.

"But we only have one pick."

"This is not the point. I suggest that you arrange a trial training as soon as possible. The important thing is, one! Must! Must! Take! Khris Middleton!"

Li Xing said word by word.

"All right!"

Triano laughed a little.

Li Xing just hung up the phone.

He is not worried about the actions of the management. Both of them have only second-round prospects. If you want to win them, you just need to make some small deals.

Only in this way, someone in the team must leave.

Li Xing could even guess who the person who left was.

Quincy Pondexter and Shelvin Mack.

The reason is simple. If the management is determined to win both Middleton and Button, then DeRozan will definitely play the second position next season.

In order to vigorously cultivate Middleton and Button, the two are bound to get many opportunities.

As a result, Matt Barnes' playing time will be further compressed, while Pondexett can only play garbage time.

Pondexter proved that he can play in the rotation of any team. He is still on a rookie contract.

It can be said that to make a deal, Pondexter must be the first person to be put on the shelf.

Then there's Mark.

When he was originally selected, the management was looking for a substitute among the substitutes.

After Calderon was injured and reimbursed against the Knicks, Stephenson started. He was promoted to the bench and played well.

He showed a rare field control ability for a rusher, which he has never had before.

He's done pretty well as a backup at the starting No. [-] spot.

If the Raptors successfully win Dragic, Calderon will retreat to the second line, and even Stephenson's position will become awkward. As for Mark, he may be worse than Pondexet.

Because the crowded back line may prevent him from even playing garbage time.

The outstanding draft operations in recent years have helped the Raptors find a group of cheap and high-quality role players. Now they are only first-year and second-year rookies with high transaction value.

If the Raptors' trading target is a second-round pick, they are the most powerful bargaining chips.

Compared with re-drafting, slowly developing, and picking second-round rookies like scratching a low-probability lottery, teams prefer to get players who have proven that they can gain a foothold in the league.

Thinking of Pondexter and Mark, Li Xing felt a little regretful and reluctant.

He doesn't want any good teammates to leave, but he also knows that this deal must be done to make the team impeccable.

If Dragic, Middleton, and Button can be won at the same time, the Raptors' guard line and wing line will have no flaws.

Sometimes, Li Xing also thinks, he is already invincible in the world, why should he find so many helpers for himself?

Thinking about it again, who wants to work hard if they can play more easily?
"Larch, the show you want to watch is about to air." Ingrid shouted.

Hearing this, Li Xing walked over and sat down beside them.

With the beginning of the offseason, the stars and actors in Witch Troupe also went out to make announcements.

Suddenly, there were only six or seven people left in the main building of Lincoln Apartment. Although there were still many people, they were not as lively as before.
