I am so Accurate

Sun Hao was still thinking about the scene of playing with Turkoglu earlier in his mind.

The two really hit it off.

If he continues to choose to stay in Europe, playing with Bodi Loga will only be stronger.

If you think about it that way, it's exciting to stay.

Feeling someone walking towards him, he temporarily put away his thoughts.

The scouts for the Lakers looked in their sixties, in stark contrast to the young scouts around them who were in their thirties and forties.

And he also asked Sun Hao if he had dunked before, so Sun Hao has a deep impression on him.

"You can play in the NBA."

When he came up, he threw a super big candy to Sun Hao.

"Thanks."

Sun Hao took him as a compliment and replied with a smile.

The scout stretched out his hand to him, signaling to chat in a place with few people.

Sun Hao nodded in agreement.

At the end of the trial training, it was originally the time to negotiate conditions with the team and players.

Turkoglu has surrounded a circle of scouts.

This is the same scene as when they tried out with Yi Jianlian in the Hongyuan team.

The improvement is that he has scouts to find him anyway.

"Your strengths and weaknesses are obvious. Offense is your strong point, and you have a very good heart. The last two goals in the one-on-one match."

"You're limited defensively by your height and you suffer from mismatches, but that can be improved. You haven't learned the defensive skills yet, so that's not an issue."

When he got to the side, the scout got straight to the point and said all his evaluations of Sun Hao, and he was really professional.

"Thanks."

Sun Hao found that he had nothing to say except thank you.

The other party is like an elder who sees through everything.

"I can give you a draft promise."

But what the other party said next made Sun Hao look up at him.

This is... draft promise?

Why does it sound a bit unreliable?

And because he was an NCAA assistant coach in his previous life, he is still clear about the responsibilities of some NBA jobs.

Like scouts, there are two categories.

The first type is called potential scouts, and it's the kind of scouts most people are familiar with.

Their main responsibility is to evaluate the player's ability and potential.

The representative figure here is Ivanka Dukan, the legendary scout of the Bulls.

The Croatian discovered Kukoc, the super sixth man of the Bulls dynasty, and later discovered players such as Mirotic for the Bulls.

Most of the scouts present today are of this type.

The second category is called senior scouts.

Their work is mainly responsible for scouting opponents, including tactical characteristics, game habits, team weaknesses, etc., to help coaches make tactical arrangements.

This is already an existence similar to that of a teaching assistant.

Such scouts are rare and are generally experienced old guys.

Sun Hao felt that the person in front of him looked like him in terms of age.

But even senior scouts don't have the right to make draft commitments.

Because that is the right of the general manager of the team.

"you do not believe me?"

Sure enough, older people have insight, and he immediately felt Sun Hao's thoughts.

"Oh, forgot to introduce myself, I'm Bill Burtka, the head scout for the Lakers."

Burtka looked like an old man at this moment, smiling and reaching out to Sun Hao.

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment.

This name, he knows!

The Lakers have many legends, such as head coach Phil Jackson, many famous "Magic" Johnson, "logo man" Jerry West, and the current "OK combination" Kobe and O'Neal.

Bill Burtka was one of them.

His influence is not as great as those above, but he is extremely famous in the circle.

The legendary scout started as a Lakers scout in 1968 and was the first scout to appear. He can be called the godfather of the scouting world.

Sun Hao had heard of him before, but had never seen a real person, but he never expected to see him here!

The Lakers attach great importance to this joint trial training!

However, it is also understandable. The Lakers just won their first NBA championship since 1988 last season, and the OK combination reached the top strongly.

A new dynasty is about to be established, and the Lakers want to reproduce the glory of Zijin.

The team has done well, but that also means draft work will be difficult.

As the team with the first record in the regular season last season, they have only two draft picks for the new season, one with the 29th pick in the first round and one with the 58th pick in the second round.

Those with the 29th pick are basically role players, and those with the 58th pick generally don't make it to the NBA.

Under this premise, it is not surprising that they set their sights overseas.

Europe is also the place with the highest level of overseas players.

Not to mention this joint trial training, including some players from Africa and Russia.

"You know me?"

Burtka asked with a smile.

"heard about it."

Sun Hao nodded, then shook hands with Burtka.

"Then you believe what I say?"

"believe."

For this kind of legend, the position is not important, what matters is the right to speak.

The current new general manager of the Lakers, Kupchak, is probably a child in front of him.

"I'm going to try to trade a second-round pick to get you, that's a promise."

Burtka continued.

Sun Hao continued to nod when he heard this, but a trace of bitterness appeared on his face unconsciously.

What this means is that if a suitable second-round pick can be traded, he will be selected.

In other words, if the transaction fails, this promise does not actually exist.

But he didn't care too much, after all, this was the first trial training, and it was already very good to get a draft promise.

And thinking of Ginobili, his mood improved a lot.

There is no comparison and no harm, no matter how miserable it is, it is better than him!

"Don't be discouraged, boy, you are good enough, and we will provide a second trial training opportunity. If you do a good job in the subsequent training, I may try to persuade them to change their minds and use the first-round pick to choose you."

Burtka really has insight into people's hearts, and he can also see his love for Sun Hao from his words.

After all, there is only one first-round pick a year, and he can't decide it with a single sentence. It can only be decided after repeated research by a team.

Sun Hao nodded.

At this time, the NBA's approach to European guards is basically to pick you in the second round and then stock them, or pay more attention to sending a trainer to follow you.

As for whether he can make it to the NBA, it depends on his follow-up performance.

Ginobili is the most typical example.

The two then chatted about something else.

"I hope to see you in training camp, but from my personal point of view, I suggest you play in Europe for another year, or I can recommend you to the NCAA, which will give you a draft pick. Big step up, you know you're 18 now."

Burtka really appreciates Sun Hao.

The older you get, the more demonic you become. No matter what occupation you are in, you will be able to see people very accurately after you have been doing it for a long time.

As the originator of the scouting world, he can see Sun Hao's potential.

"Thanks."

Sun Hao finally said the most spoken word in the conversation between the two.

Burtka finally patted Sun Hao on the shoulder and left.

After talking here, Turkoglu also chatted about the same.

Moreover, scouts came to look for Sun Hao one after another.

But unlike Burtka, these teams are basically looking for him for a second trial.

The first trial training is just like the first meeting on a blind date. Not many people can meet each other at once.

After the chat was over, Sun Hao basically knew what was going on.

If he enters the draft this year, if he wants to get a higher pick, he still has to impress these scouts in the following trial training.

After the trial training, Sun Hao walked out of the training hall.

"Sun."

As soon as he came out, someone was calling him.

Turning around, it turned out to be Calderon.

Before the two had no communication during the trial training, they didn't expect the other party to wait for them here.

"You haven't left yet?"

Sun Hao didn't know what Calderon was going to do, so he spoke out of politeness.

Calderon walked over to him.

"You... got the draft promise?"

Sun Hao glanced at Calderon, this question is a bit straightforward.

"No, I don't think Turkoglu would have that."

Sun Hao replied very "honestly".

What Burtka gave was almost the same as what he didn't give. Who knows if they can trade for draft picks.

You must know that although it is the second round, the Lakers' lineup that just won the championship will basically not change.

In other words, it is difficult for them to use current players to trade to get the second round. As for future draft picks, most teams will be very cautious.

Of course, more importantly, he is not familiar with Calderon.

If you are not familiar with it, there is no need to cover everything.

What's more, both of them are considered competitors, which is of no benefit to him.

"I didn't either, they didn't invite me to a second trial. These Americans have too much prejudice against our European defenders."

After hearing what Calderon said later, Sun Hao knew why he asked him to come.

This is to make complaints and find comfort by the way.

Although this is also true.

"Come on, respect is earned, the playoffs are about to start, I hope we can meet again."

Sun Hao has no time to comfort others now, and he is not the kind of person who likes to hug for warmth after failure.

What he is thinking now is that two days of trial training here have also been delayed for two days. The La Liga playoffs will start soon, and he is anxious to train in the system.

Calderon glanced at Sun Hao, but said nothing.

The Champions League is over, and the next La Liga playoffs will be their final stage of the season.

If he can perform in La Liga, maybe he will get a second trial opportunity.

No matter how Sun Hao chooses, the La Liga playoffs will be over, don't worry.

Let me tell you a joke.

When one or two people said I was ugly, I didn't take it seriously, but when more and more people said I was ugly, I knew the seriousness of the matter...there are more and more liars now.
