I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 439 Jordan, Bird, Celtics

On June 8, 2006, five days after the Eastern Conference Finals between the Bobcats and the Heat, the Charlotte Bobcats draft training camp began.

As a team that played in the Eastern Conference finals this year, the Bobcats lost to the Heat at home in G6 on June 3.

It stands to reason that the Bobcats' training camp is already very late.

At this time, there is actually no need for the hottest rookies in the league to participate in any training camps.

Especially when the Bobcats' 2006 draft has no good draft picks yet.

The rookies should be more indifferent to the Bobcats team.

After all, this year the Bobcats temporarily only have the Clippers' No. 14 pick and their own second-round pick.

Bobcats own first-round pick this season has been used to trade Randolph.

The Clippers' draft pick this year is the Clippers' 2005 lottery-protected first-round pick that the Bobcats traded for Brian Knight last year.

Because the Clippers were a lottery in 2005, the draft was extended to 2006. In 2006, the Clippers entered the playoffs, so the Clippers' first-round pick became the Cavaliers'.

The pick protected by the lottery, the 14th pick is definitely the most profitable.

If it is in the draft year, the 14th pick is definitely of great value.

But, unfortunately, 2006 was a small draft year.

And 2006 is considered a super super small draft year.

In this situation, it's hard to find any real talent that can fall here.

Therefore, there is really no need for talented players to waste time with the Bobcats.

However, what makes people feel incredible is that this year's top picks all came to Charlotte's training camp.

Adam Morrison, Tyrus Thomas, Rudy Gay, Aldridge, except for Bargnani, the European No. 1 favorite, the other five top picks in the United States are all here.

Especially the number one favorite, Adam Morrison.

This year's most popular rookie has been opened by Jordan.

Jordan previously said that Adam Morrison made him see Larry Bird.

When Jordan, who has the "draft eye", said such a sentence, it means that this player is really Larry Bird Jr., at least, he can become an All-Star player in the future.

After all, the last people who made Jordan publicly express himself like Larry Bird were Chen Xiao and Granger.

Chen Xiao is currently the number one player in the NBA, while Granger was the league's best rookie last season.

Therefore, after being favored by Jordan, Adam Morrison said at the beginning that as long as the Charlotte Bobcats training camp opens, he will definitely come back here to support him.

No matter what draft pick the Bobcats have.

I have to say that Adam Morrison really has ‘credibility’.

Of course, this is what the fans think.

That's not the case for rookies entering the draft.

Because Morrison is not repaying a favor at all, he just hopes that Jordan can speak more for him and make his No. 1 pick more stable.

So, how can such a good thing make Morrison more beautiful than before?

So Aldridge, Gay and Tyrus Thomas are all here.

Moreover, when interviewed by American reporters, all three of them said that they "play like Bird."

So much so that in China, the most popular memes these days are "Play like Bird" and "Protect the ball like Henry."

This year's four hot rookies, except for Morrison, the genuine Bird, the other three are no match for Larry Bird.

Tyrus Thomas' model is Marion.

Rudy Gay's model is Pippen.

Aldridge's template is Channing Frye.

However, although the templates of these three people are not as good as Larry Bird, but in terms of the scouting reports and technical styles of the three, it is far-fetched to put themselves on Little Bird, although it is far-fetched. Seems to be ok.

Like Tyrus Thomas, whose scouting report's strengths read: "Strong jumping ability, good at turning around and shooting, often staged wonderful dunks. Has excellent explosiveness and speed, good at rebounding and blocking passes . He has a long wingspan and is built for rebounding. He also has broad vision and good passing skills."

A big man who can shoot, has wide vision, and good passing skills, he does have a bit of Larry Bird's characteristics.

Another example is Rudy Gay. The advantages of his scout report are: "Is a versatile player with good jumping ability and excellent mid-range shooting skills. He can pass the ball with high accuracy, is good at working with the team, and has a tough defensive style. , the game is full of passion and has great potential for development.”

Excellent mid-range shooting, high passing accuracy, good teamwork, tenacity, and passion are also the characteristics of Larry Bird, and his position and height are also okay.

He wants to insist that he is not Pippen but Bird, and it seems to be justified.

If it is reasonable for Guy and Thomas to say that they are like Bird, then Aldridge said that he is Larry Bird Jr., then there is so much nonsense.

"Aldridge is a rookie with a very good offense. He has excellent low-post singles ability and a good mid-range jump shot. He has solid basic offensive skills at the basket and flexible feet. He is good at fast breaks.

He has a long wingspan and can be a good shot blocker, and he is good at blocking when fighting for offensive and defensive blue boards.

However, his shortcomings are also very prominent. In high school, he was considered to lack domineering play and was somewhat careless.

Although his style of play has become much tougher now, in the NCAA, he still seemed a bit weak when facing strong big men in the paint.

He is not a very emotional player. He lacks passion in playing. His dribbling and passing need to be improved, and his free throws are average. "

Can't dribble, pass badly, play without passion, free throws are mediocre, not to mention shooting, and he's been criticized for being soft, such a player is a genius, but he's not as good as Larry Bird Somewhat far.

But, who makes Larry Bird popular now?

Since Jordan made Larry Bird Jr. popular, which rookie participating in the draft now doesn't want to rely more on this aspect.

But whether you rookies are like Larry Bird or not is up to you. Jordan has the final say.

After all, Jordan never failed in drafting Larry Bird Jr.

Jordan said that you have potential, but you may not have potential. Jordan was wrong.

But if Jordan said you were Larry Bird Jr., then you must be Larry Bird Jr.

Therefore, after Jordan commented that Adam Morrison made him see the shadow of Larry Bird, it is rumored that the Celtics, who won the No. 8 pick this year, are crazy to trade up to get the No. 1 pick.

This is not what Celtics general manager Danny Ainge means, this is what other senior executives and celebrities in the Celtics team mean.

So much so that the Celtics stars and Danny Ainge are about to start a fight over Morrison.

Don’t you, Danny Ainge, want to trade Pierce?

Now the opportunity has come, use Pierce plus our No. 8 pick to trade up the No. 1 pick, use the No. 1 pick to select Morrison, and we can directly complete the reconstruction!

Adam Morrison is someone even Jordan admires!

Don’t choose now when to wait!

In the current Celtics, the cardinal's health is not very good, but he has not passed away, so those Celtic celebrities have very great status and power.

After all, there is a cardinal standing behind him. Which of them is not a direct disciple of the cardinal?

Your mere Danny Ainge counts as a ball?

Although it may feel unfortunate to say this, the chaos of the Celtics over the years has no direct relationship with the Cardinal, but it does have a great indirect relationship.

The Celtics, the disciples of the cardinal, are not only xenophobic, but also look down on foreign coaches such as Pitino and O'Brien. They also like to fight for power internally. Why? We are all Cardinals' disciples. Why can't the team listen to me and listen to you?

It can only be said that the cardinal is too successful, and there are too many "founding heroes" in a country. If the later successors can't control it later, of course, this can only be the result in the end.

Especially for the cardinal, the palms and backs of these direct disciples of his are really full of flesh, and they are not suitable for anyone to stand on.

At the beginning when these people united to exclude Bird, he could only choose to ignore his eyes in pain, and his hesitation also made Larry Bird sad and left in anger.

Well, a group of founding heroes banded together to kill the emperor's grandson.

The emperor's grandson is gone, and the official successor is gone. Of course everyone wants this position, can there be no confusion?

If Larry Bird were still around, the Celtics would definitely be in chaos for more than a decade.

Historically, the starting point for the Celtics to be brought to a regular level by Danny Ainge was the death of the Cardinal.

After Qianlong died, An Ji, a ruthless man, could take action on Heshen and others.

But the problem now is that although the Cardinal is in poor health, he is indeed still alive.

Moreover, the cardinal has always been worried about Anji, thinking that his actions are too extreme.

So those famous players have been intervening in team affairs.

That's why Angie and the Celtics stars are fighting over Morrison.

Of course, at this time, Jordan naturally had no idea that a small comment of his would cause such a thing to happen to the Celtics.

,

If you knew it, you would definitely find it interesting.

At first he was beaten to death by Larry Bird, but now he can actually beat the Celtics to death with just one mouth of his own.

At this time, when Larry Bird of the Pacers knew about this, he would definitely feel absurd, and even more so, he would feel that these people are still so unprogressive and disappointing.

"Chen, the Portland Trail Blazers want Louis, the Golden State Warriors want Monta, this is their offer."

After the team lost the Eastern Conference Finals, it was Chen Xiao's first time coming to the team. Once he came, the team had to deal with such things.
