Chapter 711 [Sunshine Otaku, Reversing the Future]

Guo Xu had no objection to let David Lee go. He had already named Tim Thomas, who had to shoot a longer range, and his tactical role was greater than David Lee.

David Lee's biggest role in the Suns is actually to improve his appearance. His tactical status will be very embarrassing next season. He will not be better than Stadameer's offense, and his defense is the worst in the inside. His defensive awareness is poor, and assistant coach Larry Drew admitted that it is difficult to train, and everyone is happy after leaving.

Before the draft began, Brian had an agreement with the Nets manager, selecting the person the Suns wanted and then traded. Guo Xu called for Kyle Lowry.

The "Little Steel Cannon" with a physical test height of 183cm and a weight of 89 kg is definitely qualified as a substitute point guard. He is strong, fast, explosive, and sharp in breakthroughs. His flaw is that his mid- and long-distance shooting is poor, and he needs to persevere if he wants to practice well. Fortunately, the Suns do not lack pitchers, and he is suitable for the team if he can play pick-and-roll breakthroughs and passes.

Roy smiled so much that his mouth was tilted when he was selected just now. Netizens called the ugly man among the rookies today. Lowry did not go to the "Green House" to participate in the talent show, and he also jumped happily at home to hug and celebrate with his mother.

Almost all short guards regard Guo Xu as their idol. Joining the Suns as Guo Xu's substitute, Lowry, is not depressed at all. He believes that he can learn a lot and will be of great help to his future.

Steve Blake performed well in the Suns a second round rookie, winning three championship rings, and is likely to win a big contract in the summer. Lowry firmly believes that his potential is far better than Blake.

This is indeed the case. Guo Xu called him to be optimistic about his super potential. He was selected as the Eastern Conference All-Stars several times in his previous life and was also the boss of the Raptors.

Players who are a little famous in the NBA have been selected one after another. The Celtics used the draft picks from the trade to select point guard Rajon Rondo; the Lakers selected point guard Jordan Famal to strengthen the No. 1 position; Shannon Brown, the Cavaliers chose, as a double-energy guard with excellent physical fitness.

The Suns chose the short inside Paul Millsap in 30th.

Guo Xu believes that the most worthy rookie this year is Mir Sap, and you can't use the second round to choose, and you must have the first round. In this way, the Suns can sign a four-year rookie contract with him and strengthen the No. 4 position at the lowest price.

The Suns are strong and powerful. Millsap is difficult to get playing time in the rookie season, but even if Guo Xu loses him, he cannot afford the Jazz. The Jazz's lineup is not bad now, and it is very likely to meet the Suns next year's playoffs.

Millsap is an enhanced version of Haslem. His physical test data is 203cm tall and weighs 112 kilograms. He has strong strength, good speed, and has the ability to shoot in the mid-range shot.

During his college years, Millsap participated in 92 games in three seasons, averaging 18.6 points, 12.7 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1.3 steals per game. He ranked 7th and 2nd in school history, respectively. He is the first player in the history of the NCAA1 division to be the rebounding champion for three consecutive times.

Such a tough guy, because he was short, could only play as a power forward or center, was left unattended by the Suns in the first round. In Guo Xu's previous life, Millsap was even worse, and he was selected by the Jazz in the second round. His annual salary for the rookie was only $630,000.

On the offensive end, Millsap has the potential to develop three-pointers, both back and face frames, and he is at a loss in height on the defensive end, with a good wingspan. He can defend against pick-and-roll like Haslem, and has been selected as the second team of the best defender lineup.

He was selected into the All-Star lineup four times in his previous life, more than Roy. If he missed him, Guo Xu would feel ashamed of being a reborn person.

This year, the Suns will leave many people, choose three rookies, and dig a few free agents, and the Suns' reinforcement work will be completed, which is not very difficult. The remaining vacancy Brian will find veterans who want rings in the free market. Helping veterans realize their dreams is a gimmick. They don't need to play a big role, just be marginal people.

After the draft results were released, Guo Xu called Brian and asked Roy's number to call.

"Brendon, you are the one I specifically asked to choose from the team. Play well next season. I am very optimistic about your future."

Roy took two deep breaths excitedly and sighed: "Thank you, it is my honor to be able to fight side by side with you. You are the best NBA player, I...I can't wait."

"Haha, you're in good spirits, be prepared, we'll win the championship together next season."

Guo Xu has ruled the NBA. Now he will flatter them if he gives rookies a few words of encouragement. He has been excited for a long time, and Roy will definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

He asked: "Do I have anything to pay attention to? During the holidays, I want to find a place to practice and improve my skills."

"First go to the team to report for a comprehensive physical examination. Listen to the team doctor's words, health is the most important. Don't train high-intensity in summer, just practice three-pointers. I've seen you play, you have to change the style of the game appropriately. You have too many changes in direction and emergency stop jump shots in full speed. These techniques damage your knees."

"What should I do?" Roy asked humbly. Guo Xu's status is enough for all newcomers to accept it. Who doesn't want to get guidance from MVP?

"I suggest you study Joe Johnson's playing style and use floor flow. His playing style does not hurt his body, and I rarely change directions quickly. We will talk more carefully when the new season begins."

"Okay. Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Guo Xu let out a long sigh. He felt that saving Roy was a very meaningful thing, and this person deserves to be saved.

During college, Roy showed his leadership temperament. His knee injury was not serious and he had only suffered minor blows. Otherwise, he would not be selected by a high ranking. His playing style and personality are the reasons for frequent knee and ankle injuries.

After entering the NBA and getting a high salary, many players cannot withstand the temptation of the flower world. They have started to spend a lot of time buying luxury cars and shopping in nightclubs. However, Roy is persistent in sweating on the training ground during the offseason and on game days to improve his football skills.

For some people, basketball is just their means of making a living, but for Roy, basketball is everything to him.

So he was able to return to play for the Trail Blazers 8 days after knee arthroscopy and create miracles.

So even though he has tens of millions of dollars in assets after retirement and can enjoy a comfortable life, he chose to serve as a high school basketball coach with an annual salary of only $6,000, just because he has an extremely passionate love for the sport.

In life, Roy also has a recognized good character.

He set up a foundation to help poor children who are gifted but unable to complete their studies.

He is a typical model husband with the reputation of "sunny otaku". If he is not in the training ground or on the competition ground, he will definitely accompany his wife and a pair of children at home. His biggest hobby is to take care of his children at home and share the joy of family with his family.

At this time, Roy only thought that joining the Suns was to replace Howard, and he would probably start from a substitute. However, he was not uncomfortable at all. He was confident that he would prove his strength in his rookie season and compete with Lagar Bale for the second position in the future.

Roy seriously underestimated his prospects, and in fact, Guo Xu hopes that he can become the Pippen of the Sun.

In the peak season of the Trail Blazers, Roy averaged 37.2 minutes per game, scored 22.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists, with a shooting percentage of 48%, a three-point shooting percentage of 37.7%, and 82.4% free throws. He is an all-around fighter like Pippen. His data is not as good as Kobe. In fact, his shooting ability is stronger than Kobe. He mainly attacks in the face frame and rarely plays low posts.

With Roy as his partner, the Suns can switch freely between having and without the ball without the ball without the ball without the Sun without the ball without the ball without the ball.
