One Hundred and Fourteen: [Changing the Draft Pattern]

Orlando Magic's 10-person inspection team arrived in Los Angeles on May 26, led by head coach Stan Van Gundy and general manager Otis Smith, which shows the importance the Magic attach to Doug.

This year, the Magic stopped in the Eastern Conference semifinals. This news made the entire Orlando fans sad for a long time.

After the end of the season, there was another news of a discord between the generals.

There are rumors that Dwight Howard once put pressure on the boss after the fifth game, hoping that the boss will control Stan Van Gundy's bad temper, and hope that Stan Van Gundy will reduce the amount of training.

But... everyone knows Stan Van Gundy is a stubborn guy. In terms of coaching, he is very capable, but in terms of getting along with players, he seriously lacks the art of leadership.

From the fourth game of the playoffs, it is not difficult to see that he just listened to Doug's words, and asked Doug to stand up and help him reprimand the players.

Fortunately, Doug is a smart man, and he didn't really bombard him carelessly, otherwise he would have become a public enemy of magic.

The trial training was arranged in the u training hall, and the magic team also recruited several other players as a foil.

Jeff Van Gundy didn't test Doug's size data, but went straight to full-court drills. He focused on Doug's 'screening quality', 'advance defense', 'pick-and-roll defense', 'fast offensive and defensive conversion', 'pass support', 'outside ball-handler defense', 'basket protection', 'defensive rebound'' in actual combat. Offensive rebound'.

The workout lasted nearly 2 hours.

Jeff Van Gundy packed close to ten pages in his little notebook.

He is very satisfied with Doug. The ability shown by Doug has exceeded his expectations and is perfectly suitable for his semicircle tactics. He will become the most qualified substitute for Dwight Howard, and he can even play with Howard to create an iron-blooded penalty area.

In his judging system, Doug's 'screen quality', 'pass support', 'rim protection' and 'defensive rebounding' are all top-notch.

What excites him the most is Doug's rim protection. Snoopy's short-distance mobility is so strong that he hardly gives the opponent any possibility of dunks. Move to get the best block position, then block opponents with incredible speed and power.

In addition, the three items of 'pick-and-roll offense' and 'offensive rebounds' are above grade A.

The 'forward defense' is quite satisfactory, and it is easy to miss the step when taking a step back.

As for 'quick offensive and defensive transition' and 'outside ball-handler defense', it seems unsatisfactory.

Snoopy doesn't seem to be able to use his thighs, his strides are too small, albeit fast.

In the link of rapid offensive and defensive transitions, this problem is not too obvious. But when he is swinging defensively on the outside, he is obviously passive. Although his defensive position is very smart, it is almost difficult for the opponent to deceive him with fake moves, but when the opponent directly takes a big step and changes direction, he will It seems powerless.

However, by the standards of inside players, it is already very good, far exceeding expectations.

So, at the end, Stan Van Gundy took the initiative to shake hands with Doug: "If there are no accidents, you will get a Magic jersey this summer. We will work hard to trade up. Orlando needs someone like you who is smart and maneuvers in the penalty area." Very aggressive defensive interior."

Duger smiled. First, he thanked Stan Van Gundy for his draft commitment. Then he said seriously: "Sir, I'm not actually an inside player. My goal has always been the point guard. Of course, before I have enough control ability for the game, I will do a good job inside. This One point, please be sure to know."

Stan Van Gundy laughed: "You're so funny."

He thought Doug was joking with him.

But Doug swears, he really didn't.

However, this kind of vow made the Magic coaching staff laugh even more happily.

Otis Smith came over and patted Dug on the shoulder: "Okay, Lord Snoopy, put your heart back in your stomach. You don't need to emphasize too much that you are a point guard, we will not lower you because of your height Regarding your judgment, we will not underestimate your strength because of the negative comments on you from the outside world. I can assure you that you must be this year's lottery pick."

"And, Orlando has the largest Disneyland in the world. The Duke and Princess will definitely live there sweetly!"

Smith's sense of humor once again had the coaching staff laughing.

They are delighted to have discovered such a talent as Snoopy.

Stan Van Gundy even thought that if Howard pretended to be sick again in the future, he would use Snoopy to implement the semicircle tactics. Once he won consecutive victories, Warcraft would have to come and beg for mercy.

...

Although this trial training is conducted in secret, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Before the Lakers experienced a two-game losing streak on the road, this message had already reached the desk of every NBA general manager.

The Dallas Mavericks and the Miami Heat called to inquire almost at the same time. The explanation given by Lin Weiwei was: "The kindness is hard to refuse, and I can't refuse it."

When they asked whether Orlando had made a promise, Lin Weiwei told them very clearly: "Stan Van Gundy very much hopes to use Snoopy and Dwight to create the first no-fly zone in the NBA!"

The news reached the ears of the two through the handset, and both of them were shocked.

Dwight plus Snoopy, this combination, among other things, is definitely at the top level of the league in terms of blocks.

No, Snoopy must be prevented from joining Orlando.

Orlando currently has the strength of the Eastern Conference finals in the Eastern Conference, and with Snoopy who can perfectly fit the tactical system, wouldn't it be even more powerful?

In case...Snoopy really grows into an all-round player inside and outside in the future, the East will be ruled by Orlando. After all...Dwight Howard hasn't hit his prime yet! When these two beasts roared together, the entire alliance trembled.

After hanging up the phone, Pat Riley rushed to seek a deal.

The Heat are in the East, and they are also in the same division as the Magic, so they must not be watched as a big player.

Although Dallas is far away from Florida, the Mavericks have always been a team that aims to win the championship. They don't want to be a lone ranger in Texas. Therefore, Nelson Jr. immediately reported to Mark Cuban, and Mark Cuban heard the news and quickly ordered to stop the Orlando Magic with all his strength.

When the three teams began to go all out to find the draft lottery pick, it immediately stirred up a storm. Originally, 2008 was recognized as a small year for the draft, and everyone had the attitude of "it's a pity to eat it, it's a pity to discard it" when it comes to draft picks. But now someone suddenly bids for competition, which immediately makes the teams in the lottery zone come alive. Some people want the Lions to open their mouths to profit from it, and some people want to test their mouths to see which player they choose and prepare to make a move.

The general managers of the nba are all good people, and all of a sudden... the quotations for draft picks went up.

It changed the pattern of the "draft year" overnight.
