"Hey, aren't you going to go in and sit?" Tang Qian looked at the young woman and opened his mouth to say.

"Oh, no, Don, you're a very interesting person, but I have to go today." The young woman said as she sat in the car.

"But, with such heavy rain, won't it be safe for you to go back like this?" Tang Qian said.

"It's okay, if I don't go back, someone will call the police soon, so Don, let's see you next time." After the young woman finished speaking, she casually wrote a number to Tang Qian, and said, "This is my private number, you can contact me after you change your US phone number, remember, you are not allowed to tell anyone." ”

"Alright, Don, it's a pleasure to meet you, I wish you a successful tryout!"

"Well, I will, borrow your good words." Tang Qian is not a person who twists, seeing that the other party has made up his mind, he no longer holds back, let the other party reverse, and sped away into the heavy rain.

"What a friendly American woman, huh? Wait, I don't think I paid her yet? Tang Qian scratched his head a little distressedly, but then he thought about it, anyway, he also has the other party's phone number, and it is not too late to pay her next time.

But......

What's her name?

I don't even think I know yet.

Hey, forget it, let's wait until next time.

Coming to the main entrance of the Toyota Sports Center, Tang Qian began to ask people: "Hi, hello old man, I don't know if you know Phil. Mr. Hubbard? ”

"Phil. Hubbard? The caretaker guarding the Toyota Sports Center looked at Tang Qian and said, "Phil. Hubbard is in the gymnasium, what are you looking for him? ”

"I'm here to try out with Mr. Hubbard." Tang Qian said honestly.

"Tryout? You look like a basketball player, okay, you wait here, I'll go in and call him. ”

"Okay, thanks."

About ten minutes later, a man wearing round glasses appeared in front of Tang Qian, he looked about fifty-six or seventeen years old, with a typical American Mediterranean hairstyle, but his figure and body were straight, so at first glance, people would think that he was only forty-seven or eighteen years old.

"Hello, Phil. Mr. Hubbard. Tang Qian looked at the American man and said in a respectful tone.

"You're just hot? Who Lee introduced me? "Phil. Hubbard didn't have a "polite" relationship with Tang Qian, and went straight to the point.

"Yes, Mr. Hubbard, I ......"

"Okay, you come in with me, I'll test your body first." Phil. Hubbard interrupted Don.

This coach is a character who doesn't like to beat around the bush, and it's okay to save yourself a lot of "tongues".

"Hot, I don't know if Li told you or not, although we are only NBDL, only the second-level league, but the competition for positions is also very fierce, if you can't satisfy me......"

"Rest assured, Mr. Hubbard, if I don't satisfy you, then I will leave myself without you asking." Tang Qian followed the other party's words and said.

"Good, I like people who are self-aware." Hubbard took Tang Qian to the Toyota Sports Center, although the facilities here are not as good as the NBA's home and away games, but compared to China, they are invisibly much better.

"Joseph, this is the new kid, go take him for a basic physical test." Hubbard walked into a room and spoke to a white man in his early eights.

"Yes sir, I'll take care of it." The white man walked over to Tang Qian and said, "Are you from the East?" ”

"Well, yes, my name is Tang Qian, and I'm from China." Tang Qian replied kindly.

"Oh, Chinese? Alright then, you come with me. "Joseph, a white man, led Don into a miniature stadium, why is it called miniature? Because this place was very small, there was only one basketball court, and there was no spare space next to it, Tang Qian felt a little cramped when he walked in. But at the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart that the Americans really do things "every inch of land", in order to maximize the effect of the gymnasium, every place is carefully planned, and there will never be a little "extravagance and waste".

"Come on, you stand on this machine first." Joseph pointed to a corner, where Tang Qian saw that there was a machine that was not functioning.

"Let's start by measuring your body's basic data." After Joseph finished speaking, he turned on the power of this machine, and Tang Qian glanced at it and knew what this machine was used for.

"Okay, you stand still." Joseph fiddled with the machine a few times, and groups of numbers began to appear on the machine.

"Barefoot height 214.8, good, good height."

Joseph took out a record board and recorded it on a piece of paper while looking at Tang Qian's body data.

"Weighing 231.48 pounds, this weight is a bit weak in height, and you need to gain weight."

Joseph continued to bow his head and write.

"Open your hands, straighten them, okay, don't move."

"Hmm, seven, seven feet eight?" Joseph thought that he had made a mistake, and he asked Tang Qian to do the test again, but the test result was still bright red seven feet eight inches.

"Seven feet eight arm span, this is close to 2.34 meters, nearly 20 centimeters taller than his bare foot height, monster, absolute long-armed monster!" Joseph filled in surprise.

You must know that arm span is extremely important for a basketball player, whether it is outside or inside. Especially as a center player, the longer the arms under the basket, the more powerful the blocking and rebounding ability is theoretically speaking. And the arm span length will not pass with the passage of time, just like the famous power forward Tim in the NBA. Duncan, why is it 2015, and he can still turn over the river and teach juniors a lesson on the inside? The extra-long arm span is definitely a big help for him to maintain his competitive ability. Perhaps the dynamic body measurement data of the "Stone Buddha" is not amazing, but when it comes to static, it is simply not inferior to any "body monster". The super arm span of 7 feet and 7 inches is one of the ultimate weapons of his "deep merit and fame".

Joseph has been in the body test for some years, so he is very sensitive to all kinds of body data.

Not to mention China, the entire Oriental race has a short arm span, which is not a "racial discrimination theory", but a living fact. FOR EXAMPLE, YAO MING, WHO USED TO MIX WELL IN THE NBA, IS A FAMOUS "SHORT-HANDED MONSTER", WITH A HEIGHT OF 229CM, BUT ONLY HAS AN ARM SPAN OF 221CM. Although Yao Ming is already the best player in the NBA among Orientals, when it comes to arm span, he is not ranked first.

Generally speaking, if the arm span exceeds the height, it is considered a "good attribute", and if you want to achieve excellence, the greater the gap, the more terrifying it is. FOR EXAMPLE, THE "STONE BUDDLE" MENTIONED ABOVE, THE HEIGHT AND ARM SPAN DIFFERENCE REACHED A TERRIFYING 16-17CM. Leonard and Rondo in the outside line are even more exaggerated, the former has a 221CM arm span, and the height and arm span difference have reached 20CM, and the latter has a 213CM arm span, the height and arm span difference can shock people's jaws, and the 28CM gap directly determines that although Rondo is shorter, the strength of the defense has a considerable level, two defenses and two defenses, which is enough to explain the problem.

Another example is Anthony. Davis, and former super defensive center Dickon Bay. Mutombo is also the type of "long-handed monster". With such advantages, the benefits are hard to describe.

"Yes, yes, raise your hand, Oriental boy, I want to see how high you stand."

Obviously, Tang Qian's physical data made Joseph start to be interested.

The reach is amazing! But what about standing and touching height? Compared with the arm span, this is the "overlord indicator" of interior players.

Many "laymen" may think that a person with a super long arm span must be super strong when he stands tall, but in fact, this is a big misunderstanding. If you carefully look at the static physical test reports of some rookies, then you will find that although the arm span of some people is "average", the height of standing and touching is more exaggerated than many "long-handed monsters". This problem can be caused by the length of the head and neck, and the width of the shoulders.

For example, in 2013, the "Tanhua" show Otto. Porter, for example, has an arm span of 211 cm, but he stands at an astonishing height of 269 cm. Relative to the same team Kelly. Oubre, obviously with an arm span of 219CM, but standing tall, it is not as good as Otto, only 260CM.

So Joseph wanted to see if this Chinese kid's standing height was as terrifying as his arm span.

"Nine? Nine feet seven inches??? d，damnit！！！ ”

After seeing Tang Qian's in-situ touch, Joseph finally couldn't help but scold.

"It's too much of an exaggeration, it's too much of an exaggeration!! How did you do that??? Are you really of Oriental ethnicity??? ”

"What? Is there a problem with my standing height? Tang Qian couldn't help but open his mouth to ask when he saw Joseph's appearance.

"Questions? shit！ Of course there is a problem! Do you know what the concept of nine feet seven inches is? That's 2.92 meters! Damn it! That's 2.92 meters! Joseph looked at Tang Qian's calm appearance and couldn't help but remind: "Hey, Chinese boy, what kind of expression do you have?" You know Kevin. Garnett, right? HIS STANDING TOUCH HEIGHT IS ONLY 275CM! You know Dwight. Howard, right? HIS STANDING TOUCH HEIGHT IS ONLY 283CM! Do you know what your 292CM concept is? This kind of standing height, even in the NBA, is a historical level!! ”

"Really?" Tang Qian replied nonchalantly.

When Zhang Dashuai was in his third year of high school at Overbrook High School in 1955, he reached 2.921 meters tall when he stood up, a little more than his current self. And he is obviously older than Zhang Dashuai back then, but he stands tall, but he has not "developed" others, this kind of achievement, for Tang Qian, who has 100% of Chamberlain's physical potential, there is really nothing to be happy about.

Besides.

TANG QIAN CLEARLY REMEMBERS IN HIS MEMORY THAT IN THE FUTURE, ZHOU QI'S STANDING HEIGHT IS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT FROM HIMSELF, IT SEEMS TO BE BETWEEN 291CM AND 292CM, SO WHEN FACING THIS DATA, TANG QIAN DOES NOT FEEL MUCH HAPPY.

"You're such a freak! With such terrible static physical measurement data, there is no smile on your face, I really don't know what your head thinks. Seeing that the main owner was "expressionless", even if Joseph was surprised in his heart, he didn't have the mood to continue to show it, he looked at Tang Qian, and said, "Next, test your dynamic data, come, Chinese boy, you stand here." ”

"Let's try your vertical bounce." Joseph brought in a altimeter, and by touching the device on the spot, he could estimate the vertical bounce of a player.

PS: It's a little late today, but I still caught up, Xiao Zi is ashamed!

Regarding the Los Angeles Defenders, in fact, in the 2010-2011 season, that is, the season that Tang Qian is now over, he withdrew from the NBDL league for a while, but it seems that he will return next season. However, for the needs of the plot, Xiao Zi has changed it here.

Regarding Yao Ming's arm span, one is 221CM and the other is 225CM, Xiaozi takes the former here.
