011: Henson the Prophet
Obviously, Anjiali has been attracted to this mature, mysterious, calm and humorous man, and in school, Anjiali is naturally very popular, so few men will be so cold to her, and they have to say hello before talking to themselves. Of course, what Anjiali didn't know was that Henson just didn't dare to strike up a conversation.
However, this kind of "coldness" is even more fascinating.
But next to Angeli, her blonde friend had little interest in Henson. She knows very well that people who travel most of the United States just to watch young people play usually don't have too high positions on NBA teams. The reason why she knows so well is because of his father, Jeff. Hornacek is a shooting coach on the Utah Jazz. And the coaching staff is usually not separated from the team.
"Be careful, my dad said, stay away from these flamboyant men." Abby. Hornacek warns Angelie that she looks as if she has been attracted to the Asian American.
"Flim Flam? Don't you think he's funny? At the very least, it's a lot more fun than the basketball guys who only talk about tactics. Angeli's long eyelashes curled into the moon, and at that moment, Hansblu's North Carolina appeared.
Seeing Hansbru playing, Henson couldn't care about flirting with his sister. After all, work is the most important thing for him now.
Henson couldn't wait to stare at Hansbrough, he could already anticipate Hansbrough's potential.
However, when the data analysis module showed Hansbour's potential rating, Henson couldn't believe his eyes. He had thought that Hansblu's potential value was A+, but he never expected that this big white man who ruled the NCAA and had won awards before he played professional basketball had a potential rating of only C!
"What's wrong with you, Henson? It's like seeing a ghost. Silas looked at Henson, who was as surprised as if he had seen a prehistoric dinosaur.
Hearing Silas's voice, Henson struggled to regain his composure. As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Under the description of Bird, Silas and others, Henson has always treated Hansbru as a super-genius. Now, though, Henson agrees with what Silas said to him earlier.
"Hansbru is not a genius."
C's potential rating, Henson guesses, this guy who has been playing in college for four years, may not be able to squeeze out even a trace of potential. The C rating should mean that after Hansbrough enters the NBA, there will be no improvement, and his level is now basically capped.
Hansbru's current level is capable of dominating the NCAA. But in the NBA, I'm afraid this guy will even struggle to survive.
Compare UCB's Thai. Gibson, although Gibson is also a junior, and his fame is completely incomparable to that of Hansbro. But his potential rating of A- means that this guy's future NBA path may be smoother than Hansbrough's. After all, he's already showing what it takes to be a defensive stalwart. Maybe after going back this time, I'll have to convince Bird to change his mind. If Bird had to pick an inside lineman, Gibson might be a better fit than Hansbrough.
Hansbrough is a nationally famous player, even on the road, and he has drawn a lot of cheers. Even Silas applauded excitedly, but Henson sat in place and couldn't get excited at all.
"Don't regret it, Henson, you just made a bet with me!" Silas smirked at Henson, how could this nationally famous super interior player lose to a little-known guy? This is a harsh reality, not a fairy tale. In the cruel real world, there is no Cinderella, and it is rare to see the weak defeating the strong.
Henson waved his hand and did not answer. After a while, the game between the two sides began, and Henson also took out a small notebook, ready to watch the ball.
During the game, Angeli really wanted to chat with Henson. But when she saw Henson's concentration on his work, she was too embarrassed to disturb. In this world, there are really only a handful of men who can turn a blind eye to themselves. But Henson has undoubtedly become the most special of them.
As soon as the game started, Hansbrough opened the top of the line inside and put the ball in easily. It looked like UCB's defense was as fragile as tissue paper in front of Hansbrough.
"See, Henson? This guy is so strong, I feel like he shouldn't be in the NCAA arena! Silas cheered Hansbru's goal.
After UCB's offense, Demar with a potential value of A+. DeRozan broke through the attack, but was blocked by Hansbrough. Henson was a little disappointed with DeRozan's performance. He and Harden both have A+ potential, but for now, the gap between DeRozan and Harden is not a star and a half. If Harden had been attacking that shot just now, he would have played smarter, rather than playing football.
Henson couldn't help but wonder if maybe this potential value system was not as simple as he imagined. For a star player like Harden, who has already made a name for himself in the United States in college, his potential is A+, which means that he can become a superstar when he enters the league. And DeRozan, a player who is a little weaker in college, although his potential value is the same as Harden, his peak level is not necessarily the same as Harden.
For example, Harden's current ability value is 40 points, plus 50 points of potential, then his peak level in the future will be 90 points.
As for DeRozan, although he also has a potential value of 50 points, his "base" at this stage is only 20 points. Even at the top, it was only 70 points. 70 points and 90 points, the difference is quite huge.
In other words, the level of potential does not represent the final level of a player. A person who has 90 points of ability is likely to have only a C in his potential. And a person who can become an NBA bench player after only one year of basketball may have an A+ potential. However, in this group of comparisons, people with a potential value of C are obviously stronger than those with a potential value of A+.
With this layer of relationship figured out, Henson had to re-examine Hansburu and Tay. Gibson too. Potential value does not mean strength. Gibson isn't necessarily really better than Hanspur. At first, Henson thought that Gibson, who had a lot of potential, would become a superstar, but now that he thinks about it, it doesn't seem to be that way.
When Hansbrough made an easy layup on the head of UCB's center, the enthusiasm of the whole court had been completely ignited by the white man inside. Hans Bru was obviously stuck behind him for the rebound just now, but he was stunned to use his stronger body and strength to squeeze the opponent away and force the ball back again.
If there was one word Henson could use to describe that basket just now, it would be "crushing"!
"Hahahaha, how's it going Henson? Bird's vision is really accurate! ”
Henson still ignored Silas and watched the game seriously. Judging by Gibson's current ability, he is indeed inferior to Hansbrough. But Henson believes that a person with enough potential A- will not be resigned to mediocrity, even if he can't become a superstar.
UCB's second attack, this time DeRozan did not go it alone, but broke through to attract the defense and then split the ball into the hands of Gibson in the middle distance. Gibson hit a solid shot to score the first goal for UCB.
"Well done! Don't let them get too complacent! Angeli shouted beside Henson, she was such a passionate girl.
But just one mid-range shot will definitely not be able to attract the attention of fans. On the next ball, Hansbrough continued to open his hand in the low post and asked for the ball to play alone. Although Hansbrough is "only" 2.06 meters tall, he often plays the number five position in the NCAA.
He slammed back, then turned towards the baseline, squeezed the space out of the way, and smashed into the basket!
"This guy is a heavy tank!" Silas shouted.
Most of the fans in the stadium stood up and prepared for Hansblu's heavy slam. In the next second, the basket made a loud noise, and the basketball hoop couldn't help but be pressed down!
The audience was silent, and everyone's eyes widened.
But people reacted this way, not because of Hansbrough's dunk, but because of Tate. Gibson's blocked dunk after the defense came over!
Hansburu was obviously taken aback, this little-known guy in front of him was so fast to make up for the defense, and he successfully blocked himself! Don't look at him as skinny and skinny, his strength and athleticism are not bad.
And what about Gibson? Instead of showing off in front of Hansburu, he blocked and went straight to the baseline, ready to interfere with his opponent's serve.
This is UCB's home turf, what's the joke!? Gibson, that kid, hold your breath!
Silas glanced back at Henson in surprise, but Henson only had a smile on his face as if he had seen through it all.
This guy sent by Bird, he's a god!
