Chapter 47 He has a super high understanding

For those teams whose market is sluggish, this guy is the best choice. His personal charm can make any team he joins instantly become the focus!

Just like he can make March Madness his home court.

The number of scouts who came to this game today was as high as 10.

Of course, these 10 or so players are not only here for Lin Ri, but also for James Harden and Tyreke Evans. After all, these are all rookies who are predicted to be in the top ten of the first round.

The stage of "March Madness" has arrived. If the team that wants to get their team doesn't let scouts follow them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a detailed understanding of them before the draft starts.

So they all had scouts come.

If you put it this way, the number of scouts coming for Lin Ri may be a bit small.

Well, okay, there really weren't many, there were only three or four scouts who came for Lin Ri.

But there are still 4 or 5 general managers and deputy general managers from each team who came to Lin Ri!

In total, there are eight or nine teams that come specifically for Lin Ri. If you calculate it like this, the number is really quite a lot!

You know, at the Blake Griffin game that is about to start in another city, there are only eight or nine scouts and general managers going to the scene, and several of them are for Griffin's opponents.

Specially come to watch the game.

With this comparison, you can know how popular Lin Ri is now!

Of course, no matter how popular it is, it is unlikely that more than 70,000 fans will shout his name together. There are many reasons for this situation happening today.

First of all, this is Yao Ming's city, and all fans have a sense of intimacy with Chinese players; in addition, there are many Chinese fans here tonight, and they have created a lot of atmosphere...

The combination of these many reasons resulted in the spectacular scene of more than 70,000 people shouting "the sun" at the beginning.

However, Lin Ri's dunk was really powerful, otherwise the cheers of the fans would not have become even more intense after he dunked.

In short, various reasons and Lin Ri's own "hardness" made the atmosphere at the scene reach its climax from the beginning. All the fans were shouting "the sun" excitedly. This place has become Lin Ri's home court.

It became the home of the Sun Devils.

Several general managers present today are old faces, Presti of the Thunder, Steve Kerr of the Suns, and Donnie Walsh of the New York Knicks.

These guys looked at the "tsunami of noise" caused by Lin Ri on the sidelines.

With their blazing eyes, they wished they could just kidnap Lin Ri home.

Especially Donnie Walsh, his eyes were so intense that they were almost glowing green, like a wild wolf looking at its prey after being hungry for more than ten days. The Knicks needed someone who was an "American Idol" from the beginning.

Come save their bad ball market!

In his opinion, Lin Ri was the person they were looking for!

Larry Bird is not in the audience today because he is a guest on ESPN today. Bill Walton, Drexler and he are in the commentary box at the moment. He is watching Lin Ri’s speech with a smile on his face.

movement.

After being surprised, he said bluntly: "Look, this is the commotion caused by the sun. This newcomer cannot be measured by common sense. He will definitely become a great guy!"

His praise for Lin Ri made Bill Walton and Drexler laugh without saying a word. They are all the same old guys. Once they see the right guy, they will definitely bring the best in the world.

After hearing this, even some praises that even their wives could not hear were poured out on the new man!

Now, there is no doubt that Larry Bird has eyes for Lin Ri.

Of course, they must also admit that this little guy named Lin Ri is indeed very good, but his problems are still quite big. From a professional point of view, at least many of his basic skills on the offensive end are not as good as Blake Griffin.

For example, ball control and back-up techniques. Judging from past performance, especially after falling into the low post, these advantages of Griffin are all Lin Ri's disadvantages.

Anyway, this newcomer is indeed very perverted, but if you really want to say it, he is really not a must-selected guy in the 2009 draft. In other words, he is not the only one who must be selected.

If Lin Ri is unavoidable, then Griffin is also unavoidable, at least from the current situation!

If Lin Ri wants to surpass Griffin in terms of value, judging from the current situation, he must first solve the problem of handling the ball in the low post.

Only when he solves this problem can he completely defeat Griffin.

But can Lin Ri solve his embarrassment in the low post?

From the perspective of Bill Walton and Drexler, it should be difficult, because in the Pac-12 playoff semifinals half a month ago, Lin Ri was severely beaten in the low post by the Arizona Wildcats.

He was restricted and the beating was uncomfortable. Fortunately, this guy could keep his composure and his mentality did not change at the critical moment. Otherwise, the "second seed" of the Pac-12 Conference might not necessarily be UCLA.

of.

It is unrealistic to expect to make progress in a low position that particularly tests basic skills in just half a month.

Rather than expecting Lin Ri to improve in the low post, Drexler is more inclined to see Lin Ri encounter trouble in the low post again. Especially, today he has to face the famous NCAA coach Calipari!

Although he heard that the University of Memphis played a game with the Sun Devils last year and was severely beaten, Lin Ri was a "pure freshman" that time. No one knew what this guy was. As far as Lin Ri's ability

, when no one knows his specific information, it is normal to be beaten in any way!

Things are different now. Lin Ri has been in the Pac-12 League for a season, and finally exposed his weakness in low post ability. With Calipari's methods, Lin Ri might be given a "big meal" today.

", which made him struggle on the offensive end. Wasn't it the same as last year's DeAndre Jordan? Before "March Madness", he relied on his physical fitness to dominate his league, but when "March Madness" came, he began to expose his offensive end.

He had rough offensive skills, and then he met Kevin Love and was directly turned into a second-round pick!

Although Lin Ri is definitely much better than DeAndre Jordan on the offensive end, his shortcomings in handling the ball in the low post are enough to kill him!

Therefore, the challenge Lin Ri is about to face has actually just begun. Only after he passes this level will he be like real gold after a big wave washes out the sand, and will he know how much he weighs.

Anyway, from the perspective of a few of them who are more rational "old guys", this is the truth, but from the perspective of most of the "old guys" like Larry Bird who are no longer rational, well... Lin Ri

First, Lin Ri is invincible in the world, I won’t listen, I won’t listen, I won’t listen!

Therefore, the most harmonious way to explain is to smile and say nothing, and wait for the development of the game to continue.

Of course, when these two rationalists saw Lin Rizhi's warm-up dunk just now, they both cursed in their hearts: What a pervert!

There is no way, this physical fitness is really too abnormal!

They really couldn't help but feel emotional.

Then the game officially started.

Lin Ri grabbed the first possession for the Sun Devils.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

James Harden, who was holding the ball, saw that the atmosphere was still there, so he thought about asking Lin Ri to perform again to make the atmosphere more like their home court.

At the same time, it can be regarded as putting some pressure on the opponent, letting them know that today is an away game for them!

Just as he was holding the ball forward, the players from the University of Memphis began to follow Lin Ri, forcing him toward the low post. Lin Ri ran counterattack several times, trying to get around the three-point line, but they were blocked by them.

It can only be downgraded. The defensive execution of this team is much stronger than when Lin Ri met them for the first time.

Lin Ri sank down to the lower level quite "helplessly".

"Sure enough, the University of Memphis has been defending from the beginning against the Sun's lack of independent offensive capabilities in the low post." Drexler said, "It's just as I expected."

In his opinion, Lin, who was forced to the baseline, would be forced to "be invisible" in the Sun Devils' first-round offense.

What a pity for the "home field" atmosphere!

I was already leaning towards the Sun Devils.

If Lin Ri can contribute some explosive dunks as usual, the tone of the entire game tonight should have been set.

What a pity!

Calipari was too decisive in executing his tactics tonight, going for Lin Ri's weakness from the beginning.

However, what happened in the next few seconds on the court made Drexler's eyes widen...

Lin, who was forced to the low post, still received the ball. This was also part of Calipari's entire defense against Lin's low post weaknesses: forcing the ball from the hands of other Sun Devil players into Lin's hands, allowing the ball to pass.

Their entire offense stalled.

This is not entirely Calipari's idea, but he summed it up from the playoff semifinals between the Sun Devils and Wildcats.

In the game against the Wildcats, the Sun Devils' offensive rhythm always stalled when the ball was passed to Lin Ri in the low post.

Calipari believes it will be the same this time!

But after receiving the ball in the low post, Lin Ri did not stay in the low post as usual and didn't know what to do. He slapped the ball very skillfully on the spot, then turned around quickly and took a step in.

In the process, the University of Memphis' No. 4 position guarding behind him was easily squeezed out by him.

The latter's strength is not on the same level as him.

But he, who was already near the low post, took one step in and went directly to the basket, and then Lin Ri easily dunked.

"Boom!"

The basket was "bombed" vigorously by him again.

The sound of the basket exploding made Calipari's small eyes widen.

What is going on?

Doesn't this guy lose the ability to handle the ball when he gets to the low post?

What the hell is this smooth low post action?

He was a little confused amidst the exclamations from the audience. Why did Lin Ri tear up the play in the middle of the performance?

Drexler and Bill Walton were also a little surprised. They didn't expect that in less than half a month, Lin Ri would really develop his low post ability.

Only Larry Bird is still there, and he is not surprised. He is actually going through all kinds of things in his heart! But his "pressing king" personality makes his expression always tense, and he has to comment calmly and calmly.
Chapter completed!
