Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 4 Draft Promises
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already mid-May, the NBA's draft picks were already clear, and they were preparing for the conference finals.

After one and a half months of training, Li Tian has initially adapted to his current body.

The bronze-level Curry three-point shooting package was finally upgraded to the silver level a few days ago, and Li Tian is more confident about the trial training.

"Li, do you want to participate in the joint trial training? Or do you want to go directly to the team for trial training?" Bill Duffy contacted Li Tian.

"Bill, can you tell me which teams invite me to the trial training now?" Li Tian's joint trial training is not so useful to him. No matter how good he is, it is difficult to enter first round.

"Do you want to enter a strong team or a weak team is more suitable for you?" Bill Duffy knew that Li Tian's knee injury had recovered, but he didn't know how he recovered.

Bill Duffy knew that Li Tian was very strong before his injury, and he was definitely in the top five. After the injury, he may not have a chance to return to the CBA to play.

Li Tian understands himself now, his body has recovered, but his skills are no longer there, and he has no ability to attack independently. The weak team is not suitable for his development. Of course, if he goes to the weak team, there is no problem. He will grow up, but Easy and attention will be very little.

Only strong teams are very suitable for their own development now. Strong teams have capable and powerful players to attract defense. I can use off-ball running positions to get better shots.

"It's better to go to a strong team, so that my attention will be higher and it will be more conducive to my future development." Li Tian told Bill Duffy after analysis.

"Okay, the big teams have the Cavaliers, they want to trade for a second-round pick; the Celtics have a second-round pick; the Pistons and Spurs also have second-round picks; Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls. But the Cavaliers, Spurs and Pistons are still in the playoffs.” Bill Duffy sifted through the solo workouts he had contacted to negotiate.

"Let's forget about the Pistons and Spurs. The Pistons are not suitable for me. The Spurs are not so good for the future development, and the exposure is not enough." Well, I directly refused.

"Okay, then we are going to start the trial training next. Go to Miami first, and the next order is the Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, and Chicago Bulls."

Bill Duffy gave Li Tian time to arrange and try out.

Li Tian took a look and found that they were all teams from the Eastern Conference. In his heart, he still wanted to go to the Lakers.

"Bill Duffy, is there any trial training for the Lakers?" Li Tian still wants to go to the Lakers, and he will get more honors in the future.

"The Lakers, the current Lakers are too messy, Kobe is looking for a deal, the Lakers are about to fall again, what they have to do now is to stabilize Kobe, they didn't pay much attention to the draft, and they didn't receive their invitation, at the same time I'm not suggesting you go to the Lakers either," Bill Duffy explained.

It is impossible for Li Tian to tell Bill Duffy that the Lakers will take off next season, Pau Gasol will go to the Lakers, and Kobe will not leave the Lakers.Of course this cannot be said.

"Okay, I'll be in Miami on time."

The next day Li Tian showed up at the training hall in Miami.

"Bill, is this the heavenly genius you were talking about?" Pat Riley walked towards Bill.

"Yes, you should know, he was a shocker in the basketball world."

"But that was just in the past." Pat Riley muttered a little impatiently, but Bill Duffy recommended Li Tian to try out alone, and an agent like Bill still has to give face.

"Okay, let's start the static talent test first." Riley called the staff.

The staff is doing the test methodically.

Test your bounce again, just do it, start testing.

The staff recorded Li Tian's bounce.

Riley, who was standing in the distance, was a little uneasy. This kind of jumping black athlete is also difficult to do, but he is entangled in his heart. Li Tian's knee suffered an injury that could destroy his career.

Shuttle run test, strength test.

All done, and some simple confrontation tests were done.

Static talent:
Naked height: 208CM
Height with shoes: 211CM
Armspan: 230CM
Standing height: 280CM
Body fat rate: 8%
Weight: 95KG
Jumping in place: 85CM
Run-up take-off: 97CM
Palm width: 24CM
Turn-back run: 11.2 seconds!
3/4 court sprint, it only took 4.1 seconds without the ball, and only 4.5 seconds to run with the ball

Bench press: 10 times

Jordan's body card is fused, but it has not been fully fused. There are some differences in the body between the two. The current Li Tian's body has not yet reached the perfect moment.

After several months of no perfect training, only one and a half months of intensive training, the realization of static talent has already amazed everyone.

Because of his weight, Li Tian's confrontation ability is still a little weaker, he has death entanglement, but his physical fitness has not yet perfectly matched the death entanglement.

"Bill, his static talent is good, very good, I will suggest the team to choose him." Riley is still very tangled, not sure whether to choose Li Tian, ​​​​it is a damn injury, but he is still very smooth.

Bill Duffy heard Riley's worry, and he was still worried about Li Tian's injury.

"Okay, we will continue with the next trial training."

The two came to Cleveland non-stop. Li Tian took a look at Cleveland. If there is no James, it is estimated that except for Cleveland, few people in this team will pay attention to him. It is only because of James that the world really pays attention.

"Congratulations, Gilbert, I think this year's championship must belong to Cleveland." Bill Duffy was the first to express his congratulations to Cleveland.

"Thank you, Bill. We are very busy recently and our time is limited. I'm sorry." Gilbert has been too busy recently. The team will continue to prepare for the next playoffs, and their goal is the championship.

Soon, the regular trial training was completed. Mike Brown was also surprised by Li Tian's static talent, expressed his love for Li Tian, ​​and hoped that he could coach Li Tian.

"I think his talent is good, and he can be selected at the end of the first round or in the second round." Mike Brown expressed his suggestion.

"Yes, this talent is indeed very good, but he has had knee injuries that can destroy his career, and he needs to be more cautious. If he is selected and injured again, James will have opinions." Gilbert said Looking at his own worries, injuries are the worst enemy of professional players.

"However, I think it's still worth taking a gamble. The second-round pick is a lottery ticket. If you get it, you'll make money. Even if you get hurt again, it's just a second-round pick. If you haven't been selected at the end of the second round, we You can try it." Brown still hopes to choose Li Tian.

"Okay, I'll talk to him."

"Bill, Li Tian is very good. You don't need to participate in other trials. We will select him in the second round. But we will talk about his shortcomings to the outside world. I hope you can understand." Gilbert said.

"Okay, I understand."

After leaving the knight's training hall.

"Li, you got the draft promise from the Cavaliers, shall we continue the trial training?" Bill asked Li Tian.

"Let's continue the trial training. The teams that have already contacted have to continue the trial training. You also know the draft promise. Sometimes it is just a sentence." Li Tian knew that such a promise was meaningless. In his previous life, Jordan was short of signing Isn't it better to miss the appointment?

Immediately afterwards, I went to the next few teams for trial training. Some teams were because the Cavaliers spread some unfavorable news about Li Tian. They said a lot of his shortcomings, which also affected the selection of some teams. .

When the Celtics tried out, they still got Angie's promise.

"Bill, Li Tian, ​​we will choose you as the second pick in the second round, don't worry." Angie still made a promise to Li Tian.

It's still the same as the knight, and it also talked about Li Tian's many shortcomings to the outside world, especially the exaggerated publicity about Li Tian's knee injury, saying that Li Tian's knee still has a high probability of injury.

Both Angie and Gilbert spread the news of Li Tian's knee injury. If only Angie spread the news, some people would think that this is Angie's draft strategy, but both teams are like this, so It has a great impact on Li Tian's draft pick.

Originally, after the recent publicity by Bill Duffy, Li Tian's draft position was also slowly rising, but after the news came out, many websites that predicted the rookie position repeatedly lowered Li Tian's draft position.

ESPN directly ranked Li Tian outside the 60th place.

Horford saw that Li Tian's position had fallen seriously, and was also very worried about Li Tian.

"Li Tian, ​​why did your draft pick drop so much? Isn't your knee injury much better? Why are there still hidden dangers?" Horford was puzzled. He knew that Li Tian's knee injury had recovered. .

"It's okay, Horford, it's their intention, because they have already made a promise, in order to be able to select me, they deliberately announced that my knee injury is still a hidden danger." Li Tian explained to Horford.

"Okay, that's good, I hope we have the opportunity to fight together in the NBA, whether it's teammates or opponents, it doesn't matter." The relationship between the two has always been very good.

"Haha, I hope so too, don't cry when you lose." Li Tian began to speak harshly.

"Okay, see you at the draft."

Taylor also contacted Li Tian immediately, wanting to comfort Li Tian, ​​fearing that he would be hit again.

"It's okay, Taylor, I got draft commitments, one in Cleveland and one in Boston."

Taylor was also happy for Li Tian.

"Great, you can finally enter the NBA, congratulations, but Kecun, isn't it too young?" Taylor was also worried when he was happy for Li Tian. After all, he went to a small city and the two met. chances are even less.

"If I am selected by Kecun, I don't think I will stay there for too long, that is, I am a rookie for two years, and then I should leave there." Li Tian will not stay in Kecun for too long.

"Well, I believe in you, you can do it." Taylor's honey believed.

After finishing Taylor's chat, he explained to Yao Ming again.
