Basketball Myth: Super Guard

The 2010 NBA draft lottery ceremony came, and the results of the lottery were released soon, which was no different from what Qin Hao remembered. The first pick belonged to the Wizards, the second pick in the first round was the 76ers, and the third was the Nets. Team, followed by Timberwolves, Kings, Warriors, Pistons, Clippers, Jazz, Pacers...

On the second day after the lottery ceremony, the players who signed up for the draft were arranged to undergo a medical examination, followed by participating in the draft training camp organized by the NBA.

The NBA draft training camp is to provide a platform for players participating in the draft to show their abilities in order to be recognized by the NBA team.

If you perform well and get picked up by an NBA team, there's a chance you'll be selected in the upcoming draft.

Even if you are not selected and are not selected in the end, some teams will remember you as a person, and they will invite you during the summer league to let you represent the team in the summer league.

If you do well in summer league, you may also get a contract.

So for a lot of players, the draft training camp is very important, and for some other players, the draft training camp is not so important.

For those draft favorites, draft training camps are optional.

They have already proven themselves and gained universal recognition, and they don't need to prove their abilities anymore, let alone worry about losing the draft. Therefore, some players even refuse to participate in the draft training camp because they are afraid of accidental injury during training camp. affect their draft.

Others attended training camp but refused to participate in the body side.

One is to think that the body side is meaningless, just like Jordan would not say "My body side data is better than Olajuwon, I should become the No. 1 pick", the body side is just a reference.

In addition, there are some people who are trying to avoid risks. For example, if a player with excellent skills but poor physical fitness, participating in the side of the body may further expose his weakness, which may affect his draft selection. So refuse to participate.

Both Qin Hao and Butler participated in the draft training camp.

Qin Hao saw a lot of acquaintances in the draft training camp, John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Eric Bledsoe, Evan Turner, Ai Pai Youdu, etc... ...

These are all players who have played against Qin Hao. They also saw Qin Hao, and the two sides simply said hello.

After all, they were all defeated under Syracuse University, and it would be awkward to meet each other.

In addition, there are some players Qin Hao is familiar with, but they are not familiar with Qin Hao, such as Gordon Hayward, Paul George, Hassan Whiteside.

Qin Hao is still very interested in these three people. After all, in his memory, these are players familiar to Chinese fans.

Qin Hao took the initiative to greet the three of them, and the three of them were also very polite.

After all, Qin Hao is now a popular draft pick. He also led Syracuse University to win the ncaa finals championship. Even in ESPN's latest draft forecast, Qin Hao ranked third, second only to John Wall and Evan Turner. , even higher than Hayward and George et al.

After that, Qin Hao also saw another familiar person - Jeremy Lin.

"Lin Jeremy." Qin Hao took the initiative to step forward and open his hands.

"Qin...Qin Hao." Jeremy Lin's Chinese pronunciation is not quite standard, and at the same time a bit cramped. He didn't seem to expect Qin Hao to take the initiative to greet him. Seeing Qin Hao open his hand, he was a little flattered and hurriedly hugged Qin Hao. After a moment, he said, "Nice to meet you."

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's just us two Chinese with yellow skin and black hair, so don't be so restrained."

Feeling the kindness conveyed in Qin Hao's tone, Jeremy Lin also smiled and said, "I'm far worse than you, we didn't even make it to the ncaa championship, but you led Syracuse University to win the ncaa championship. I also watched the final, you played really well."

"Haha, nothing, it's everyone's credit." Qin Hao smiled, chatted with Jeremy Lin again, and introduced him to Butler.

It's just that Qin Hao still didn't tell Jeremy Lin that he would lose the draft this time.

Perhaps this is also an experience in Jeremy Lin's life. If he hadn't lost the election this time, there might be no "Lin Madness" in the future.

The first thing players do when they enter training camp is their side.

Due to the large number of people, they were divided into two groups. Each time, two people participated in the body side at the same time. The body side included static data and dynamic data. The static data was height, arm span, weight, body fat rate, etc. Dynamic data is mainly speed, bounce, strength.

Players go up to their sides.

Of course, some people refuse to participate. It's nothing, it happens every year, and it has become the norm.

Others who didn't go up were gathered outside, looking at other people's sides curiously, exclaiming from time to time.

When Butler was on his side, people gathered around him. He is also a favorite in the draft. Although ESPN's predictions are currently not in the top five, the lottery is certain.

"Huh, this power... tsk tsk, it's like a cow."

"Bounce is also very strong!"

There was an exclamation from the crowd.

Butler's bench press test score is 10 times of 100kg bench press. For a player with a height of 203cm, this is already a very good data, which is enough to prove how powerful Butler's strength is.

At the same time, Butler's speed and bounce data are also very good. The 3/4 sprint test took only 3.14 seconds, the vertical bounce was 82cm, and the run-up bounce reached 103cm.

There is no doubt that such dynamic talent is enough to prove that Butler's physical fitness is very good, far above the other players in training camp.

Then came John Wall.

He's this year's No. 1 pick and one of the players that people pay most attention to, so a lot of people are around.

And Wall's physical talent did not disappoint people, with a vertical jump of 76cm and a run-up jump of 99cm. His strongest point is speed. It only took 10.84 seconds to move at four points in the three-second zone, ranking among all the players currently tested. Rank first.

The 3/4 sprint test Wall took 3.14 seconds, this one is not particularly outstanding, the same as Butler, but it is also second among the players currently tested.

The body side is just a reference. In addition to the height and weight of each player, the position of each player on the court will vary greatly.

For example, a defender and a center bench press, it is definitely not comparable.

But the NBA has a formula that combines these together to give a comprehensive score. Using this composite score to measure a player's physical talent is relatively more objective.

And Wall's body side data can be said to be very good, especially his speed and bounce. His overall score is currently ranked first.

Wall was also very satisfied with his performance. Amid the chorus of admiration, he looked at Qin Hao, his chin raised, showing off a bit.
