Chapter 8 Chicago Combined Trials (3) Shooting Test(1/2)
“This…”
"Jiang's performance is a bit beyond my expectations..."
Celtics Operations President Anji was also amazed at the performance of Jianghu. Such physical conditions are much better than Tatum, who they have observed for three years, and they look more like the future league forward answer.
"I'm right, you'll be surprised if you come here in person today." Celtic scout Forres said proudly at the CEO Angie with a smile.
"I asked you to go to China to inspect the second round pick, but I didn't expect this guy to be the candidate for the No. 1 pick!!" An Ji stared at the court with his eyes shining, thinking.
"Tatum is not as good as him from height, wingspan, speed and weight, and he is one year younger."
"But Tatum is very mature from his skills to his mentality. I don't know much about his skills and mentality."
Anji hadn't immediately denied his past vision.
Although the world has only appeared for an hour, Anji's priority is almost up to Tatum.
He even wondered whether he could choose Jianghu and Tatum to the team, and Jaylen Brown, to form a three-man with the forward position line.
After the physical testing session ended, the management of each team had their own thoughts.
But one thing is the same: almost all the coaches and management teams with lotto signs ran to Jeff Schwartz and chatted with him to make a relationship.
Seeing so many management teams around him and all of them sent trial training invitations to Jianghu, Schwartz's face was already smiling like a chrysanthemum.
He knew very well that if Jianghu's pick was just an ordinary lottery, he would definitely not receive so much attention. Being able to receive so many teams' attention means that Jianghu's strength has been recognized. Seeing this posture, Schwartz felt that Jianghu was likely to be selected by the top eight teams.
Everyone was pestering Schwartz, and the world became quiet.
But Jianghu is also happy. He invited his agent and gave him so much money. Isn’t it just for him to do this?
"Awesome, Jiang, I didn't expect your physical condition to be so good."
Jamal Murray was envious when he saw the popularity of the world. He was also a player under Schwartz. The Nuggets did not play in the playoffs this year, so he came to watch the fun.
He knew that Schwartz was more optimistic about this player from China, so he took the initiative to come and talk to Jianghu.
Jianghu was still watching around and watching the management's reactions. It was not until Murray patted him on the shoulder that he realized that the other party was talking to him.
“Mamba??”
Seeing that the person coming was Murray, Jianghu instantly remembered his video and his succubus girlfriend, and couldn't help but blurt out his nickname...
"What??"
Jianghu is speaking Chinese, but Murray didn't understand it and was confused.
"It's okay, I mean you are very strong and have a Mamba style!!" Jiang Hu smiled and patted Murray on the shoulder, looking like he admired him very much.
"Oh, thank you, you are great, Jiang!!"
"We are under an agent, so we can take care of you in the future!!"
Murray was flattered by the praises of Jianghu and extended his hand to Jianghu with a smile to express his kindness.
For this Canadian who looks more like a West Asian, the senses of Jianghu are pretty good, so he is not reluctant to contact the other party.
"Of course I have to take care of each other. I know the first time I see you, I have made a promise to make friends with you!!"
Jianghu had a kind smile on his face and shook hands with Murray, as if the two had been friends for many years.
………………………………………
The physical tests were all in the morning. After a brief rest at noon, the next round of tests began at 2 pm.
Facing a defensive shooting test in one minute, many people avoided this test session, especially some players who positioned blue-collar centers, basically did not participate.
The defenders and forwards basically participated in this link, which is impossible to avoid.
Blue-collar centers may not be good at shooting, after all, their main role is defense. Some offenses have the ability to shoot mid-range shots and dunks.
But if the forward and guards don't know how to shoot, it's a joke.
In this session, the training camp sent a defender of similar height to Jianghu, and Jianghu's performance was still very outstanding.
The defender's defensive movements are not very aggressive. They just simply hold it with one hand and stretch out the other to interfere with the shooting. Facing this kind of defense is as simple as drinking water for the world.
In one minute, Jianghu made 20 shots, 18 shots, and his 90% shooting percentage completely crushed the entire game.
The player who performed this test almost at the same time as him was Fox, in which Fox exposed his biggest shortcomings, which was shooting.
Facing defense, Fox made 10 of 19 shots in a minute, only just over 50% of his shooting percentage.
Seeing Fox's achievements, Jianghu showed a slight smile, absolutely no intention of ridicule, just simply laughing...
But this smile still turned into mockery when Fox's eyes fell, and the little fox's resentment towards the world became deeper.
Apart from the little fox, the person who shot the worst was Bam Adebayo. Jianghu didn't know who and his courage were, so he dared to participate in this test.
With 6 of 18 shots, facing the defender like air, Adebayo seemed to be out of his mind, and kept making irons, making the team management and coaches on the sidelines frown.
In addition to Jianghu, the player with the most shooting times is Malik Monk, whose data is 16 of 20 shots is no less than Jianghu.
In addition, Laurie Markanen and Jason Tatum also performed well, with 14 of 19 and 15 of 20, which can be regarded as having the ability to shoot mid-range shots.
After a minute of the test, the next three-pointer was a shot.
The three-point test was completely in accordance with the three-point competition pattern, with 5 balls per point, a total of 5 points, and the time was only given 90 seconds.
This time, the first person to play was Luke Kennard from the NCAA prestigious Duke University.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Kennard surprised everyone as soon as he came up.
Although dozens of strong players and management coaches of various teams were on the sidelines, he performed quite calmly, his face was calm, and his breathing was stable, as if he had seen many big scenes.
His attack speed is very fast and his attack point is very high.
The first point was to hit 5 consecutive goals.
He hit 4 consecutive shots at the second point and conceded one goal.
The third point hits all again.
The fourth point is also all over.
He didn't miss the last shot again until the fifth point.
23 of 25 shots, Luke Kennard made 14 consecutive shots before losing the last shot from the third point to the fifth point.
Luke Kennard was the first to play and his performance was so perfect that he undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on the people behind him.
Most of the team management on the court remembered this pure shooter with a big heart, which was accurate in shooting.
The second appearance was Laurie Markkanen. He didn't look nervous, his shots were quite casual, he looked unfast but his rhythm was good, and his shooting movements were easy.
The first point is all
The second point hit three consecutive shots and missed two shots.
The third point is all.
The fourth point is all over.
The fifth point came to the ball and missed a single shot and hit it all.
22 of 25 shots, another sharpshooter...
Lauri Markkanen is 2.11 meters tall and has such an excellent shooting feel, which once again amazed everyone. Many management and head coaches remembered another name.
Two consecutive shooting players with accurate shooting appearances in front, which is too much pressure for those behind...
Sure enough, the third and fourth player played in the game collapsed under pressure.
Frank Nelikina, 9 of 25 shots.
Dennis Smith, 11 of 25 shots.
Donovan Mitchell, 13 of 25 shots.
Until the two in the first two appeared, no one was close to 20, and the highest was Kyle Kuzma and Malik Monk, both of whom were 25 and 19 of them.
"This project is quite difficult, and the guys still have time to adapt to the NBA's three-point line."
"Yes, I still have to give them time to practice in terms of projection."
"The main thing is that you have good physical fitness and you don't have to rush to project."
Next were Jason Tatum and Daron Fox, the last two players who ranked first in the world, and among the players who were present, one of the few players who were always predicted to be in the top five.
Tatum was expressionless when he appeared, and before he got on the court, he even talked and laughed with Adebayo next to him, and he looked very casual.
But he immediately exposed himself as soon as he made a move.
The first ball, three-no-touch...
The second ball, smashed the back box...
The third ball was at the forefront of the basket...
At the first shot point, Tatum hit only one goal.
At the second shooting point, the first shot made another three-no-touch shot, and only two shots were hit at this point.
To be continued...
