The Point Guard is Here

"Hello, Mr. Powell. I am Dave Chertz, general manager of the Knicks. After careful thinking and scientific deduction, Jack Fan is very suitable for our team. We have decided to select no less than the top ten picks Jack..."

When Dave Chertz's voice came clearly from the phone.

David Falk was shocked.

Moreover, he noticed that two kids from Michigan were looking at him with puzzled and suspicious eyes, and there was a clear element of distrust in these eyes... A high school guard is actually playing in this place you call a 'stupid donkey' Under the operation of the Knicks, who won the league's largest market and just finished the finals, the Knicks' top ten draft promises.

For any rookie, New York is the most attractive place.

Sam Powell spread his hands, and he said to Dave Chertz in an unceremonious gesture: "I can only say that you have made a correct decision. However, I cannot guarantee that your top ten commitments will get Jack. You know, you weren't the only team that saw Jack's talent."

Sam Powell has a 'Knicks over the top' attitude.

This was once again beyond the expectations of Falk, Howard, and Jaylen Rose.

They originally thought that Sam Powell would be respectful after getting the draft promise from the Knicks, and they were careful not to lose it.

However, this guy turned out to be...

David Falk is not so tough in front of other small market teams, and he even smiled in Washington.

Both Jalen Rose and Juwan Howard were dumbfounded.

What surprised them even more was that Dave Chertz increased his bargaining chips on the other end of the phone, as if chasing a goddess's licking dog, with a very low posture, not at all like the general manager of a wealthy NBA team. "Yes, of course we know that Jack Fan is very popular in the 'underground draft market'. But, the top ten promises I said are not just top ten. Wear a Knicks jersey."

Ok!

Sam Powell raised his jaw slightly, and sprayed two airflows towards Falke with his nostrils to show his sense of superiority.

Falk couldn't believe his eyes at all. This was something he had never seen in his 20 years in the industry.

Then, Dave Chertz continued: "Now, the only little bit of a problem is,

Jack needs to go to the head coach's office for an interview. Mr. Powell, this is by no means a tryout, just a conversation. It does not affect any outcome and we do so out of respect for Mr. Pat Riley. "

Sam Powell raised his eyebrows, looking unhappy.

However, in the end he agreed.

Dave Chertz on the other end thanked Powell contentedly, then hung up.

After finishing this call.

Powell became the most imposing man in the room.

David Falk didn't know how he left that house, he felt that he had lost his former majesty in front of the two rookies.

Therefore, he expressed his proposal to end the contract to Fan Xie the next day.

Fan Xi thought for a while, and he agreed.

Farke is the most powerful agent in the NBA, but his mind is not on himself.

Moreover, for Fan Xi today, he does not intend to sign those small endorsement contracts.

There is an essential difference between his business philosophy and Falk's. Falk wants to make quick money from him. And Fan Xi firmly believes that he has a long-term future.

This is consistent with Sam Powell.

Although, Fan Xi couldn't understand why Sam Powell was so optimistic about himself, so full of confidence.

...

The news that Fanhee and David Falk terminated the contract was quickly announced in the media, which was promoted by the media as the most capable agent in the NBA.

This caused a devastating blow to Fan Xie's predictions in the major drafts. Basically no expert would think that Fan Xie still has a chance to enter the NBA.

At this point, the draft is less than a week away.

Grant Hill, Glenn Robinson, Jason Kidd, Donyell Marshall... the competition for those top players has entered a fever pitch.

Open basketball news, basically revolves around these newcomers.

In 1994, rookies were very important signings.

Especially in this era of salary chaos and serious inversions, many teams expect to select a super rookie and then directly lead the team into the strong team sequence.

Therefore, high school players are actually very underestimated. At this time, the NBA is far more optimistic about immediate combat power than potential.

Because, a rookie entering the NBA can get a contract worth tens of millions of dollars without any restrictions. And... Those famous superstars, including Patrick Ewing who strictly stated in his contract that his salary should not be lower than the top four in the league, have an annual salary of only four million.

Scott Pippen, who is now the star of the Bulls and locked in a long-term contract early, is even lower.

Vanhee walked into Pat Riley's office at the same time as Charlie Walter before heading to Indiana for the draft.

This is an interview arranged by Pat Riley.

Before entering the room, Charlie Ward's managers were obviously over the top. They believed that Fan Xie did not have the capital to compete with Charlie Ward.

Fan Xi didn't take seriously the undisguised sense of superiority in Charlie Ward's agent's words.

He said hello to Charlie Ward.

Charlie Ward was born in 1970, he is 7 years older than Vanhee.

They're not even technically a generation anymore.

Charlie Ward is a rigorous and introverted person, his temperament is a bit similar to the Monty Williams whom Fanxie met in the Virginia training camp last time.

"I think you should receive a college education. You will have a very fulfilling life in college. Now that you have announced your withdrawal and you still have time to join a strong NCAA team, I think you will easily get a full scholarship." Charlie Ward is very sincere Give advice to Fan Xi.

Vanhee thanked him.

But Charlie Ward didn't understand Fanhee's intention of not wanting to continue talking on this topic. He continued to instill in Fanhee the concept of a good college life.

He was a double star in football and basketball in college. In fact, he was selected by the NFL major league last year, but he still came to play basketball this year because the starting salary of playing basketball is higher.

Fan Xi and Charlie Ward chatted outside for ten minutes, and then the two entered Pat Riley's office at the same time.

Pat Riley looked at the two players in front of him expressionlessly.

Charlie Ward is a mature defender who has formed, has excellent physical fitness, solid tactical awareness, and can provide immediate combat power after joining.

Jack Fan, a high school guard who is agile, full of imagination, full of potential, and extremely young.

These are two extremes.

But he asked them both the same question.

"How do you think what kind of team can be called the perfect team?"

About 1 minute later, Charlie Walter spoke and answered.

He talked about his football career for about five minutes. He expounded on the importance of teamwork and tactics. He believed that a perfect team should establish the central idea that everyone is for one and one is for everyone. Only when five fingers are folded into one fist can an opponent be knocked down.

In addition, he also told a short story that a chopstick is easy to break, but a chopstick cannot be broken.

Pat Riley nodded again and again.

Then, the divine operator asked Fan Xi.

Fan Xie answered honestly: "I think a perfect team can have 'imperfect'."

"Everyone has inherent talents and flaws, which are the characteristics that distinguish people from people. There is no reason why players should be turned into screws and run like machines. The perfect team should be a The perfect platform for players to bring out their strengths and accommodate their weaknesses."

Fanhee's answer made Pat Riley frown.

Charlie Ward thought that Pat Riley was not satisfied with Van Hee's answer, and he deliberately eased his cheeks for Van Hee: "Jack means that the players should be closely united around the head coach..."

"No, the head coach also has people, and there are times when mistakes are made. What I mean is that a perfect team has the ability to accommodate mistakes and automatically correct mistakes." Fan Xie continued to explain.

This made Charlie Ward feel helpless.

He deeply realized that this guy should go to college for another four years, his interpersonal skills are too weak.

Actually said in person that a champion godfather like Pat Riley has shortcomings? It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

Pat Riley did not continue to discuss this topic any further.

He didn't even ask Fanhee questions anymore, but asked Charlie Ward: If you are selected by the Knicks, but you need to be a substitute player, you can only play 3 minutes a game, or even be sent to a lower league, what would you do? How to debug?

Charlie Ward is very mature. He said that he will work hard to polish his skills and try to adapt to the team's tactics as soon as possible...

After about 5 minutes, the two ended their conversation.

Then Pat Riley stood up and asked the two to leave.

Leaving the office, Charlie Ward pulled Van Heila over again: "Little Jack, you are too reckless. How can you question the head coach face to face? Now, you have missed the best opportunity. Listen to me and quickly withdraw your draft application." .It is still too late to apply for university.”

Fan Xi once again thanked Charlie Ward for his kindness, and at the same time, he also said that Pat Riley would definitely listen to what he said.

Charlie Ward shook his head and sighed: Alas! too young too simple. High school students, who haven't experienced the beatings of the society, how can they know the difficulties in the workplace.

It's hard to persuade the damn ghost.

Charlie Ward thought he did his best.

Meanwhile, Pat Riley is in his office describing plans for next season.

He wrote while thinking: Charlie Ward is a person with a stable personality. After he is selected, his playing time can be infinitely compressed.

Jack Fan's character is very detached, very assertive, and very thoughtful. Should give him some more time.

A perfect team should allow for 'imperfection'.

Great reading.

As expected of my favorite high school student!

Next, let's see what pick that stupid country bumpkin Dave Chertz can use to select Jack!
