NBA: Becoming stronger starts with hard work and mastery

The last time I saw him, I was so disappointed.

In the previous timeline, Han Yi really didn't know where Duncan got the courage to wait for Tony Parker, the 28th pick in the first round, and Manu Ginobili, the 57th pick in the overall draft, to form the GDP that dominated the first decade of the 21st century.

But in this timeline, it seems that he is the butterfly flapping its wings.

In this game, he turned Duncan, who likes to fight alone, into a team player?

I really don't know whether it is good or bad for me in this life!

Of course, in fact, a guy with a personality like Duncan, even if he is not taught a lesson by Han Yi, may also suddenly wake up after a setback in a future game.

But what Han Yi still wants to say is:

"I really haven't considered the question of whether I am a team player or a lone player. I am playing as a team now, more because Ben and Artest are really suitable for this, and I am really not strong enough now!"

Tim Duncan: 16 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 blocks, 11 turnovers!

Han Yi: 31 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 11 blocks, 0 turnovers!

Except for rebounds, Han Yi can be said to have blown Duncan upside down in other aspects!

This is really something no one has ever imagined. Even the most loyal Georgetown fans were sure that Georgetown would win before the game, but they didn't dare to expect Han Yi to defeat the NCAA's top inside player and Tim Duncan, who had already locked in the 1997 No. 1 pick, in terms of data!

Not to mention blowing Duncan into slag in terms of data!

"Lost? Victor Forest University actually lost?"

"Victor Forest University lost, but Han Yi actually beat Duncan on both offense and defense. I really can't accept this!"

"Hey, don't exaggerate. This can't be considered a beating of Duncan. Although Han Yi has an overall advantage in statistics, Duncan and Han Yi didn't have many opportunities to directly match up in this game. Most of Han Yi's points came from direct layups on fast breaks."

"On the defensive end, although Han Yi blocked many shots from Duncan today, most of them were assists. There was only one frontal block. If he didn't double-team and relied on single defense, Han Yi would definitely not be able to do anything to Duncan! "

"Hey, have a cigarette!"

The Los Angeles Lakers scout handed a cigarette to the Rockets scout:

"Today's matchup, do you think it's like a matchup between two NBA players?"

"Uh, I think..."

"Let's say it at the same time and see if we think differently!"

"Olajuwon vs. O'Neal!"

"Olajuwon vs. Karl Malone!"

Although they didn't understand each other at all, the two scouts laughed!

Yes, as Tim Duncan, who has already firmly grasped the No. 1 pick this year, everyone has clearly defined his template, that is, Hakeem Olajuwon, who won two championships in the two years when Jordan was resting!

The young Duncan's footsteps in the interior do not look as gorgeous as Olajuwon's, but from a practical point of view, the perfection of his interior technology is definitely comparable to Olajuwon!

As for Han Yi, his positioning is a bit troublesome!

Last season, Han Yi's positioning was quite clear, a super blue-collar inside player!

Template: Dikembe Mutombo, a senior at Georgetown University!

Excellent static talent and extraordinary blocking ability!

But after this game, scouts found that Han Yi's ability to counterattack on fast breaks was something that Uncle Mu could not do at any time!

If you have to find a template in the NBA for such ability, O'Neal, who was not as heavy as he is now, could do it in the first two years after entering the league. The young Karl Malone often played such amazing performances in cooperation with Stockton!

But comparing Han Yi to these two top NBA inside players seems to fall into the rut of exaggeration that scouts often use. After all, Han Yi can indeed play fast break counterattacks across the entire court, but a detailed analysis of his offensive core is far from O'Neal and Karl Malone!

If we only talk about fast break counterattacks, Marcus Camby, who entered the NBA last year, often plays this kind of ball!

But if we compare him with Marcus Camby, who was beaten to pieces by Han Yi in the NCAA last year, it seems that Han Yi's level is lowered!

But no matter what, one thing is certain. Before this strong dialogue starts, there are always a group of people questioning:

Is Han Yi really worthy of being selected in the top five?

But after this game, such doubts suddenly became stupid!

What we should really think about now is:

"Is it really possible to select Han Yi without the top three picks?"

"Hello, Han!"

Allen Iverson called Han Yi excitedly and said:

"I have repeatedly reiterated to the 76ers that we must use this year's pick to select you. You must participate in the draft this year! Let's regroup in Philadelphia and fight for the championship together!"

"Really?"

Han Yi did have some impression of the Philadelphia 76ers' pick this year. In the previous timeline, the Philadelphia 76ers finally got the second pick with the fifth-to-last record, and missed Duncan!

And they used the second pick to select a white center named Keith Van Horn. As for what this Van Horn was like, Han Yi couldn't remember it clearly, but since he didn't have much impression, it must not be very good!

If he really wants to participate in the draft this year, it is highly likely that the No. 1 pick will not be able to compete with Duncan. Han Yi is not entangled. If he can enter the NBA with the No. 2 pick, it will be good. The current Philadelphia 76ers are a mess, which is suitable for his development.

But...

Han Yi said without emotion: "Let's discuss it later. If I don't win the championship, I will play for another year. 88, hang up, I still have to train!"

"Pop!"

The phone was hung up, leaving Allen Iverson on the other side cursing at the phone.

A smile appeared on Han Yi's mouth. This feeling of teasing Iverson... is really cool!

NCAA Final Four!

Georgetown University's opponent is the University of Kentucky!

Yes, it is the University of Kentucky that made Han Yi + Iverson lose in the NCAA finals last season!

Although the University of Kentucky lost Antoine Walker, Tony Decker, and Walter McCarty this season, it still has three players with NBA first-round picks!

Among them, in the previous timeline, Ron Moser was the No. 6 pick this year, and his draft pick was a little higher than last year's Antoine Walker!

When the team's previous top player Antoine Walker went to the NBA, Ron Moser naturally became the absolute core of the team!

Ron Moser said shamelessly:

"We have only one goal, that is to defend the title! As for which cats and dogs we bump into in the middle, I don't care!"

Compared with the boss's arrogance, the second-in-command Derek Anderson is much more cautious:

"Han Yi is very strong, but last year we Kentucky proved that we are a better team, and we will prove it again this year!"

Facing Kentucky, which directly eliminated him last season, Han Yi did not say anything harsh, but just said lightly:

"See you on the court!"
